Made this for a contest on another forum. Still trying to get the hang of the Oil Paint filter, what do you think?

After changing the text and a couple of other minor changes:

I know, right? I wish the text weren't a requirement for the contest :lazycry: I'd leave it out otherwise. Do you think there's anything I can do to save it?

For the text I would just use a simple, clean text. make it light blue and then reduce the opacity a bit. Very nice tag otherwise! Love the effects you have.

That's a great idea! How does this look:

Definitely loads better. I would make the blue even lighter though, almost white. Also put the letters closer together (there is an option in the "character" tab to reduce the spacing between the letters). 

 

Is this the size you're submitting it as or will it be smaller?

I tried the lighter text, but it didn't really fit the theme IMO. But the kernelling suggestion did work :<img src=:'> I had the kernel set to 75 for the previous text and I forgot about it lol.

I'm going to submit it this size, but let him know I can shrink it if he wants :<img src=:'> This is 75% of the original size as it is, so I can make it bigger if need be too :D (I like to work on a HUGE canvas so I can get all the detail I want without having to zoom in so much)

I was just asking because if that is going to be the size I think the text size should be quite a bit smaller and a bit closer to the render. That's the only thing left to change though I love it otherwise :D
