Oc: Venus - Tumblr Posts
Everything new I've been posting lately is fully in game! No editing at all except rotating it 😁 Sometimes shots don't turn out how I'm expecting because I'm trying to set them up sideways (& potentially half-blind like with the scan shots) but eh my style's always been a bit ~experimental~ lmao 🖤
In this case, she was rotated 90° in photomode, black/white effect filter, & the skyline background (+ various adjustments on highlights, contrast, vignette, etc) then I just rotated the shot back again!
Can't stop loving Night City!

Ty so much!! It's super easy to achieve, too! Literally just:
effect: off / 9
I use 9 a LOT for Venus because I associate her with the colors magenta/fuchsia/shocking pink & that filter really pops things in that direction with some extra saturation & just a little extra pink or blue to the shadows. It's not always the best choice if you're looking for deep black shadows but it can have some really evocative results (protip: try it with the fallen ferris wheel or around pink lights in general!)
Some more from that set I saved to compare:
effect: 4 / 5 / 6
I really love all of these for different reasons but the top two just compliment each other so much as a pair 🖤

It's so funny you say that because originally my plan was to highlight how unhinged she sometimes looks. I work around it so often I decided to just go for broke but... Every. Damn. Shot. was just like
"living her best life" is an understatement???
