This is a great cover man!!! And I didn't particularly like the movie so I'm not bias.

I still think he needs more contrast and the blood should still be darker imo.

Thanks guys,

Have implement all the adjustments and ideas. Worked on the coloring as Arkflip suggested.


How's this...

by Speedz0r » Sat May 13, 2017 2:11 pm

Ok, wasn't aware of that. But does those changes (yellow tint) go on top of all layers or just kong, because atm kong doesn't fit the scene as nicely as he would with the right adjustments.

by wessim » Sat May 13, 2017 11:21 am

@Arkflip - thanks bud, will do the coloring.

@Speedzor - if you look at post 40 you see it's more red.
Arkflip send a quick mock-up.
Will look at those adjustments. Thanks buddy


Thanks guys, update soon...

What is this "orange" color on his right arm? If it's meant to be blood, then it needs to be way more red and darker. Does he take damage from the choppers tho? I imagine they have little effect on him in the movie? Not sure about the squid tho. Also I would give it a more yellow tint as Arkflip suggested.

edit: Also, on Kong, go to Image > Adjustments > Exposure. Set Exposure to +0.10, Offset to -0,0059 and set Gamma Correction to 0.75, that should make him blend more with the scene.
You might also want to go to Image > Adjustments > Color Balance. Set Shadows to: +2 | 0 | -5, Midtones to: +2 | 0 | -5 and Highlights to: -4 | -2 | -2.
And last, Image > Adjustments > Selective Color. Select Magentas (purple color) on colors and reduce the Magenta to -60%.

results:

If you think he's too dark, go to Image > Adjustments > Shadows/Highlights and set Shadows Amount to: 5%

Great update :)

I agree, that's for sure the best you've done for this so far! :)

I'd use some levels to adjust Kong a bit more - his skin on his hands and face could be more black.
The water between Kong and the title is very calm although there is all the action. Is there a way to change that?

The new rocks in the background work much better, now the focus is on you great scene. :)

I only boosted the saturation and changed the color balance midtones, adding more yellow and red.
