Well, it's pretty straight-forward, haha. This is my first venture into Photoshop since early 2012 and I have been staring at this thing for far too long. I'd love to know what you think, what you think needs improvement, etc. I'd also be interested in learning what you would pay for an image like this.


Keep in mind that the strange light area above the horse is faded out for text since this is my current layout photo. :)


 


Clicky da link!

A ghastly play on a pegasus?  I see wings made out of the sticks and webs???  Is that what you were going for?  Either way I love it!  Very well done!

Are you taking custom orders?

Wow!  I really, really like this!  It is a BIT busy for what I usually like, especially since it seems like all the action is at the bottom of the picture.  The sky seems to be a majority of the image, and then when you get to the bottom the horse has SO much going on and it's kind of distracting - to me personally.  However, the technic and skills used in the image are amazing and I would definitely order customs from you and would suggest you start selling some premades and customs in the auctions!  A fair price for your work would be 50-150 mill depending on the economy at the time.

Good luck!

OH MY GOD THAT IS AMAZING. AHHHHHH!!!!!!

 

It's so easy to screw up crazy hair like that but you've pulled it off beautifully, plus all those webs. Oh my god. I could gush over those for hours. And the SMOKE! 

 

*flail*

 

I'm hopeless on prices since I've been out of the graphic game for a while, but I would place them above what I had been charging back before my laptop bit it which would be in the range Inaya quoted above. The thing to remember is that graphic prices can vary pretty wildly depending on the economy and the fashion at the time. Some days it can feel like prices are determined more by what's in vogue than they are the skill and artistry of the manip. The best way to figure things out is throw some premades in auction over a couple weeks, see what you get, and then set your customs a little below that. People will bid up an auction in the heat of it whereas they won't if they're just placing an order.
