Photoshop contest - bow tie

Bow ties are so out of style. No external sources.

This is very nice. The transition from the bottom of the knot to the tie could be a little cleaner, but overall, nice entry. In a strange way, I think this would look pretty nice hanging on a wall.

Wonderfully done! And great shadowing I also love the details on the shirt, not too much, but its still there. Great job!

author:

Thanks for the comments guys. To be honest I wish the shirt was better detailed, but I was scared that adding a texture would detract from the tie, which is the focus of the pic. If I could do it again I'd try to make the shirt a lot more photorealistic. Feel free to use the tilable on any future submissions.

There is one photo used in this entry from morgefile(seen below)- the photographer was notified :)

The rest is only the source bowtie photo and pen and shape tool.The ring heart and fabric from the source were all used.

**Edited- new background added and new stock used http://www.sxc.hu/photo/450055

Good one! I REALLY like the costume, but don't like the reflection much.
(175 days ago)

author:

Yeah- I am not sure how I feel about the reflection. I needed something- and if it gets brought up to much we might edit it Then I'll have to find other background options.

adriansin88 [lvl 10] [vp 1000] [ 26]:

Very nice work... But I agree about the reflection...

Updated, hopefully for the better- thank you kindly for the advice! It was late and I was a bit delirious

This is dope. Can I say dope? Hopefully - cuz it's dope. There's something I might change, but I can't quite think of what it is. Maybe... the butterfly is a tad bit TOO 3D? Did you use a bevel? If so, bring it down just a bit.

Emma81 [lvl 8] [vp 1000] [ 167]:

Should've left the dots on the butterflies. Then you would've retained an element of the source and had more interesting markings on them.
