  1. The Poll is now Open for the TGMagnitude entries.  Thank you so much everyone for your participation and I apologize for having to cull some of the entries this week. 

     

    The Poll will be open until Saturday 7th October 2017, until 7 pm UK time and 2 pm EST.

     

  2. I practiced some more.  Obviously one has to remember to use the exact same settings for the combination spheres :fear:.  But I have one, probably very silly question.  When you say ", use aplha=0, transparent is=1 (primary color should be black or dark)."   If the primary color, in the Opacity-Alpha in the Color wheel is 0, why does the color matter, as if it's "0" then there is no color anyway :greengrin:.

  3. Hi @MadJik - I know this is an old thread, but I am curious as to how you got the balls to overlap.

     

    These were your instructions:

     

    1.Start PDN (white image 800x600). You could use any color you want (not too dark)!

     

    2.Shape3D: all default expect :

    ...scaling = 1.37

    ...light direction x=0,y=1,z=1.

    2.a  Duplicate the layer. On the top layer select bottom half of the sphere and delete it.

     

    3. Seamless texture maker: mode="Only cut", use aplha=0, transparent is=1 (primary color should be black or dark).

    3.a  Merge the layers.

     

    4. Menu Layer, Rotate/Zoom: Tile=checked, zoom=0.25, Angle=0, Twist angle=90, Twist radius=20-40.

     

    This is what I get - only one set.

  4. About this week's TGM competition folks ~ Please will those of you who have posted more than three entries, please resist posting anymore.  I will accept all that have been entered for this week, but I think more than three - in the future - will be disallowed.  As you can imagine if everyone posted 4, 5, or 6 it would be massive job to upload them all for the Poll. 

     

    Thanks for your understanding

    One question concerning the current contest. Does the signature have to be a 100% TGMagnitude thing, or could it be part TGMagnitude alongside other techniques?

     

    I would say that only TGM be used on an initial texture/image.  But, things like blend modes, curves,etc., would be alright.
