•Dystopia•

- I don't know what a "Dystopia" is but it sounds cool.
- I went crazy on that one, totally not my style. Used Gradient Maps, Clipping Mask, Exposure,etc. Had lots of fun doing it.
- Choose a version
- Tell me what you think :love:
- Signature #76

Dystopia is the opposite of utopia. And utopia is some kind of future society with perfect political system.

And I haven't touched PS in long time so I am little rusty on this but I'd say that the concept is nice overall. Little over used maybe. Left side of the sig is kinda messy which bothers me though. And I've seen better from you.

Thanks.

So basically it's kind of like a chaotic society? Had a chaotic theme going on :P

As for the signature, made a final copy.

The contrast is a bit too strong on the girl. The fill-in pattern is too even/flat.

Also, Utopia/Dystopia doesn't have to be futuristic. Ever saw A Clockwork Orange or read Brave New World? Utopia is pretty much impossible to envision - or at least to have a common version of it. Pretty much since Utopian societies can also be seen as dystopian, depending on who's looking.

Oh, and is that Michelle Trachtenberg?

That's funny because our English teacher offered a couple book that we could read and Brave New World was in the selection. Chose Life of Pi instead though.

As for the chick, I don't know her name. :soosad:
