Thieves Wallpaper

You've gotta work on that rep.

I don't like the work, it seems like made in paint and just layers over layers.

Good luck with your future work, never give up :D

Fair enough.

It looks clean I love that for a wallpaper.
Also I love the eye idea.

Thank you. PM me for the wallpaper if you want it.

It looks poorly cut, the knives and the white simply don't fit together (also don't get their meaning) and the background doesn't really fit.

In general, it looks as if it was done quickly without trying to make everything fit together and look good.

Don't really get how it's supposed to mean "I like playing thieves"

The thief is a drawing so it isn't poorly cutand I used eyes for knives because most people associathieves or robbers with using weapons such as guns and knives to threaten or assault someone or am I incorrect?

Additionally, the blood signifies that the thief is willing to harm and even commit murder and the quote is by Pierce Brosnan which implies that the thief enjoys plundering and murdering.

If you mean the eye looks weird then it's meant to portray a crazy-like childish feel to the thief.

Thats a sick wallpaper man

Oh boi. This is going to be "fun". Now before you read this, brace yourself in-case you aren't overly welcome to constructive feedback, if you are then that is great.

Let us start with the bigger picture here, the background. (This includes the smoke as well.) I will point the most obvious problem first. The smoke looks like a horribly oversized "smoke brush" you got off DeviantART. The quality of it is absolutely horrible.The rest of the background is dull, boring and flat. There is nothing to it as it is purely one solid color. Which is ironic as smoke is visible because of depth. Meaning you have tried to mix depth and flat design into one, which is a very bad and rookie mistake to do.

The next part I'd like to talk about are the elements outside of the main attraction. The lion and the random text. The text is horribly placed, has no flow with the image and such a huge contrast that it just burns in the eyes. The placement could be fixed if the centerpiece wasn't centered, more on that further down though. As for the lion thing, is that a watermark and even if it is then what is it doing there? Taking up so much space for no apparent reason and draws attention for no reason what so ever. Not to mention how it breaks with everything else in terms of flow.

Ah, now unto the centerpiece. Which seems to be a rough drawing with a clipping mask over it. Which in itself isn't bad, but the image used for the mask is.The image is bad because of how poorly it flows with the "eyes" (knives). The reason I say this is that the top of the dollar image is blurring out, while the "eyes" are in full focus, ruining every single bit of focal point there was in a second. It confuses the eyes and makes it even harder to focus on the image, which was hard by itself. Now about those knives. I assume that the "speech bubble" is meant to be the opening of the mask? Sadly you can see that you did a horrible job at drawing it, as you can see it cuts off and twist at the bottom right, meaning you overlapped the lines when drawing it with the Pen Tool.

Now let us talk about depth real quick. While focusing on the knives actually. The entire design comes off as if you tried to mimic flat design, but then here comes those knives which looks like you just copy pasted from the internet somewhere. The problem isn't that, it is that they carry a texture on them, giving them depth on an otherwise partly-flat design. Ruining the overall style further and the flow as well. Not to mention that the color is awfully picked, it goes with nothing on here. I suggest that you go on and read about complimentary colors and color use in design, you might learn a thing or two.

Thank you man! I agree with all of these things you've pointed out and will read about complimentary colours & colour use today
