    Here's a tag I recently made for my friend.
    It's my very first smudge tag.
    CnC would be greatly appreciated.

    It is not bad for a first smudge, although some points of composition could be improved. The text can be moved closer to her shoulder which will bring attention to her features as a focal. The added flowing hair does not blend well with the contouring of her head. Sweet colours, very soft and sentimental. Hope your friend likes the gift!

    Thanks a lot for the comment! She loved it. The area off to the left is just abstract effects added for flow, I just blended it with her hair to give it a more abstract and mysterious feeling.

    Like Eve said, its not bad for a first smudge.
    In my eyes the flow could be done better on the left side.
    The contrast between the blue/green to tan doesn't looks great, it just pops out of nowhere imo.
    The shoulder and text look very out of place.

    KIU :D

    holy smokes this looks cool!
    the only flaw i see in this, IMO, is how the smudge stops at the top of her head, and you can still see the roundness of her head.
    i don't know if that was intentional, but when doing a smudge/blend tag, it's kinda important to keep your focal together.. right there, it feels like my eyes get separated from the smudge and realize there's a girl.. whereas if it was all smudged, it would've been like whoa, there's a chick all up in this nice waterfall. :p
    also maybe the text could've been bigger..
    and now that i see it, a little more depth woulda helped. XD
