Ive been working on so many WIPs. Plus having college work makes PDN time short. But I have managed to come close to finishing something! After 10 crashes, 5 completely filled PDN files, and too many please for help from my computer to remember, I present this wallpaper. Stupid photobucket resized WAY down, but oh well. This was originally around 2048X1500 or so... I am not finished with the entire piece (this is just one corner of the entire artwork).

This is 100% PDN, but I used a stock in the full WIP.

Darth Ford (placed 3rd with J.D. in Photomanip contest)

And I think that is it for now...Unless I forgot something.

Hey hey! 500th post!

Thank you Possum'! I thought it was a cool idea and just had to give it a shot. :D My only regret is that the tats disguise his features just a little too much. I wanted him to be a little more recognizable, but oh well.

Black star CD cover. I submitted it (more details on DA) and will hopefully get an email on the verdict soon. I tried to upload it into Photobucket, but it was taking forever (3 hours, just like DA) and it never finished. I finally gave up and settled on a lower resolution version. But I will not spend that long to upload it into photobucket. I still wanted to share it with everyone here, so here is the link.

I am done with the "Wish Upon A Black Star" series for...as long as possible. I feel so much better now that it is done. Unfortunately my computer holds grudges for a long time.

Thank you Chrisco, Julio, Barbieq, and Martel for your comments! much appreciated. I apologize for not being able to thank you sooner. College got busy.

Martel, I actually have a tutorial on the PDN fans forum, but I used a slightly different method with that one. I used a lot of blurs and dents along with scribbling wildly. The blurs and dents created a sort of fire look. i cant say too much because I dont really remember. Just play around with those effects... once I was done with that I flattened the image, then duplicated it to another layer in which I used diffuse, make sure you check the box that says: invert colors. I set that layer to overlay. hope this helps, if you need anymore tips, I will try to rediscover the process a little more detailed.
