    I am pretty sure Vman uses GIMP, and he is pretty good with it... if I remember correctly.

    I hope you legally obtain a purchasable copy of Photoshop CS5, or we're going to have some problems.

    It's supposed to be kicking him like a horse would, obviously.

    But then again, it still doesn't make ANY FUCKING SENSE.

    GIMP can be as good as Photoshop, if you know how to use it.

    About the picture, the posing its ok, my only complain would be that the AA is quite low, try to up max your graphics.

    Edit;

    One question, was the muzzleflash of the rifle cartoony on purpose? I seriously hope so.

    Plus there's shitty bloom, he's on construct, the muzzleflash is a 30 second PoS, and there's no faceposing.

    And what's your beef with GIMP?

    Also, I find it funny that you think that Photoshop will magically give you the ability to edit. If you can hardly do anything in GIMP what makes you think you can do anything in PS?

    And since everyone's been relating me to GIMP:



    Yea, that's with GIMP suckah :smugdog:

    If you are "pro" in Photoshop it should be incredibly easy to work in GIMP as they are not really that different. That muzzleflash and the silly comment about GIMP is proof that you clearly dont know how to use a Editing program properly.

    Gimp and Photoshop are equal in ability. I just find photoshop more user friendly than Gimp.
    Then again, I did learn with photoshop so that might have created a bit of a barrier.

    Hardly so; they were merely correcting his mistake of thinking GIMP is too low-tech to compare with Photoshop.

    If your GIMP skills are comparable to a gibbon with computer access, how do you expect the result to be any better with Photoshop?

    Depends what you're using the two programs for. If you're editing Gmod pictures with a mouse then the two programs are pretty much identical for those purposes (actually, I prefer how GIMP works with contrast editing and some of the filter options it has are awesome).

    But now that I paint with a tablet, GIMP is a piece of shit compared to CS5.

    Photoshop isn't going to miraculously change the way you edit things, the knowledge and practice of it might. However I agree GIMP can pretty much do the same things as Photoshop, and comes with a definitive less price tag, in some ways it can't compare.

    Practice more, improve your graphics and posing mostly. Then try to compose your shots a little more.. Directly with the action.

    I personally find PS easier to use but that's just more of a getting used to the program thing. Though I did hear from quite a lot people that while Gimp is an incredibly powerful program in it's own right, it doesn't fully compare to Photoshop. I admit I am not fully aware in which areas it lacks - I've just heard it does. might be tablet support.

    Though if I remember correctly the gimp rendition of paths was actually superior to the PS one.

    And I hardly doubt that the OP does any normal graphical arts since otherwise he'd see the mistakes almost instantly.

    I have been using photo shop a lot more longer and the layout is different and i am use to photo shop,

    I haven't used photo shops since digital replaced film in most cameras.
    Taking a picture with a camera and plugging it to the computer instead of taking the film to a shop saves time and I assume photo shop prices are pretty high novadays.
