Requesting Mentor

03/10/2010 04:08 gerble93#1

Hey everyone, I really don't know if this is the right place to post it.
I'm sorry! But I am looking for a GREAT Photoshopist, someone who will be willing to teach me the ropes, and help me get advanced, and really teach me. I always loved Photoshop, but i always have been an amateur.

So if you could please apply here if your interested.

EX.

I'd like to be your "class mate" if you are going to get any teacher. I might learn some new techniques and styles. :awesome:

As already stated in another (German) thread I currently don't have the time for stuff like that. I strongly recommend just doing tutorials, more tutorials and when finished with that, just try some tutorials :P
That's actually the way I learned to use Photoshop.

You might want to look for a "real" gfx-forum to post your works at as the users there often can give you much better critic then you will receive here.

All I can offer atm is trying to give detailed comments on your works or maybe show you some simple tricks. If you send me your .psd files I could just look through what you did and give some feedback and maybe add some improvements to it.

Some years ago I tried to watch a "teacher" working with Photoshop via AIM/Teamviewer and I learned nearly nothing. He was way to fast for me and every time I asked something he was disrupted in his workflow and didn't get a decent result.

You could also try to bring CnC back to our presentation-thread but there aren't that many active, good artists here so again, you should move to a gfx-only-forum.

Just my opinion.
Greetings

Well the issue is that I don't have any Photoshop skills.
I understand how to use the basic tools , but that's the extent of my skills.
I don't know where to being.. And what to do. That Is why I need up find a mentor.
Someone who could not only show me the ropes... But really be a teacher.. Testing my ability. And actually making sure I understand what they are tell me. I'll do anything to did a teacher... I can't offer any real money.. But I do have 40 elite*gold.. That's my only offer I can give anyone :))

And if you wouldn't mind telling me some good forum where I could go and ask for a forum.. Maybe through a pm or add my msn.. I don't want you to be breaking the rules haha :))

I think it's not allowed to post other forums which don't have any backlinks to e*pvp. But just google for "gfx forum" and you will find a lot of good pages. :)
