The Reefster Vs Steven_jd

[Steven_jd]

Mod set the Theme plz

[mlkedave]

omg steven, ur asking for an *** kicking friend lol

o by the way, we dont have to ask a mod for rules like bb, if reef wants to battle you, u guys can just decide the rules urself.

[REEF·]

Sure, I'm game. Set the rules.

[Steven_jd]

lets make some one else set the rule Michael would you set the rules for us plz

BTW sorry about the other battle :(

[REEF·]

BTW sorry about the other battle :(It's cool it's just that over here in kirupaforums when you challenge somebody you don't say you're better than them, you're supposed to increase their self esteem. So let's just have fun and end this one clean :dog:.

And yes, Mlkedave, I'd like you to set the rules for this one :).

[mlkedave]

ok...

Theme: Anything that evokes sadness (I like broad themes :) )
Dimensions: Anything
Rounds: 3
*edit* by the way, no cheesy B/W stuff. You can use B/W, but i mean dont just make an image B/W, thats not sad! *edit*


Anyone can go first, if u guys cant decide Ill pick.

Have fun.
Mike

[REEF·]

I'm terrible at going first, I never figure out how to start but I can end it. So steven_jd can you :P.

[mlkedave]

reef dont forget about our battle now ;) lol

[REEF·]

reef dont forget about our battle now ;) lolNo way I'm working double time thinking of ideas to return with you first. Thats why I want steven_jd to serve first so I won't have 2x the tension :P.

[Steven_jd]

[mlkedave]

[Steven_jd]

hey reef you can go first cuz i had a bad day and it's just kinda kick me out of the designing mood and you know once you don't have that mood it won't work if you but if you want ot wait i may get it done by tomorrow

[REEF·]

[mlkedave]

[Steven_jd]

[silent.gear]

[REEF·]

nice post reef but i'm going ot tell you right out it didn't make me sad but very nice post really like it :DWell I didn't want some american soldier on the ground dead but thanks :).

[Steven_jd]

i guess your right then

[REEF·]

I am 1000% sure it didn't make anyone sad but it was a broad topic. Night/moon tends to make some people feel down i guess lol. You're up stevo :D.

[Steven_jd]

http://img85.echo.cx/img85/6501/reefvsme13js.jpg

Michael set it up for round 2:p:

[mlkedave]

man steven thats got to be the best serve from u i've seen. like you u didn't use your regular font, good stuff.

Ok, on to round2:
How about for round 2, make a serve that revolves around a movie? What do you guys think? (this doesn't mean you need a picture of the particular movie, be creative)

[Steven_jd]

i'm down with it

BTW thank Michael :D

[mlkedave]

reef, hows the serve coming?

[REEF·]

Great serve steven :D! Really like the photo you used, had the same exact idea to use that african boy photo from sxc flowing through my head but then I ran out of ideas lol.

I'll get on my serve a little later sorry for the delay really busy.

[shfence]

The reefster - nice keep up the good work.

[REEF·]

Thanks for the comment.

[mlkedave]

crazy serve reef...

on to the 3rd and final round...

Theme: Make a header (including Title and Buttons and w/e else u guys think applies to headers...) for your future/pretend portfolio. The header must include at least one of YOUR previous serves. What do you guys think?

[REEF·]

Yea im cool with that what about you steven?

[Steven_jd]

ya but you go frist Reef have some sugar to take care of :D

[REEF·]

There is no first and second for the last round, this isn't a serve battle it's a theme battle. I'll finish mine sometime this week.

[silent.gear]

thats awesome reef. looks really good. where did you get that batman guy picture from? looks cg.

[Steven_jd]

reef can i have your PSD for your first post i have some questions about your border jd.steven@gmail.com

[REEF·]

Silent: Thanks for the comments, and yes it's from CGTalk. They have the best 3D render I could find on batman, talent guys I'd say.

--

@ Steve: 700 bucks or no you can't have the PSD :beam:.

I dont save PSDs for battles.

[Steven_jd]

did you make the border if so how did you make it ?

[REEF·]

You can find wood textures online. I usually use wierd objects to make them into what you see. Took me 2 hours to just get the border done, so yea thats probably the significant part of the serve. The whole frame is a lot of images cut out and HEAVILY modified, cause I'm never satisfied with regular images.

Notice my frame around the night image is red lol. Wood is not red.

[EZEkiel]

Notice my frame around the night image is red lol. Wood is not red.

what about RED gum ;P thats a red wood not good eating but looks good!!

keep up the awesome work guys!!

[:ninja:EZEkiel:ninja:]

Agreed well done :thumb:

[dr_vroeg]

yeah, nice...because grunge is real classy :sure:

[mlkedave]

dr_vroeg ur just cruising for a brusin lol

*edit* BTW, i mean in a PS battle, and im just ****ing around. Just to clear that up lol *edit*

[DDD]

yeah, nice...because grunge is real classy :sure:

Actually yes. But it is the composition, color and the use of of blend modes with the grunge to create a fairly perfect theme. As far as I have seen is Reef been moppin fools up lately....:p:

[REEF·]

Thanks a lot DDD and Dave, I always feel like it's trash in the end for some reason because the quality is so low but whatever I'm waiting for that photoshop magic to hit me like it did to the pros @ f12 and 24-7. Thanks for the comment.

Hey wait...my skills were ashy :a:?

@ Vroeg: Thanks for the support after I rooted for you :love:.

[DDD]

Hey wait...my skills were ashy :a:?



Yea they did require a bit of lotion back in the day........ :lol: :cantlook: :wasted:

[REEF·]

Lol yea well I couldnt afford johnson&johnson back then.

Wait this was my second photoshop battle...what the hell, does this mean my first sucked?

[Steven_jd]

http://img94.echo.cx/img94/9568/hand19mq.jpg

hope this works i had fun Reef ! thanks

[REEF·]

Sorry I can't view the image re-up please :).

[REEF·]

What kind of header is that...you gotta follow rules steven comon I thought you knew this by now :sigh:?

"Theme: Make a header (including Title and Buttons and w/e else u guys think applies to headers...) for your future/pretend portfolio. The header must include at least one of YOUR previous serves. What do you guys think?"

[Steven_jd]

ops i didn't thought we had rules for this round for real :-s

[REEF·]

Why would you think that?

[Steven_jd]

i'm sorry guys i didn't know that we had rules for this last round i have be trying to follow them from first post one i just don't know what happen this last round sorry

[REEF·]

You knew the rules clearly, mlkedave posted the theme and you replied a post after saying I should go first. There are always rules how do you not know this? A header, for a future portfolio, with buttons and anything to make it significant.

I'll put the poll up then sound good?

[REEF·]

This battle has to end by now, good battling with you lol.
