  1. I've been working on this texture. It's supposed to look like a pool, but I'm not sure how to make it look more like a pool, as it doesn't look very pool-like to me. :?

    What you have now is very nice. As Expiration stated you do need shadows and the hightlights are to bright. Experiment with the blurs to see what looks good.

  2. mhh i think my grass looks more realistic like yours tillerman and the stem is out of the tut from Ash, so it's realistic :P

    i have overworked(?) the handle of the axt, but i have problems with the chrome/metal thing although i have read all tutorials for that

    Your grass could be made more realistic by using different shades of green and having no white outline. the different shades of green should show the different grass blades.

    For the axe blade, try using Ash's really easy 3D metal/chrome effect tut

    EDIT:

    Here's an example:

    wow that's nice!

    I like that grass, and the Axe Blade is very nice. Well Done! I can't wait to see what your final product will look like.

  3. What I ended up doing was just putting a piece of the grass texture over the problem part of the stump, here's my try:

    Edit: This was just a rough example, it would look better if you separated the pieces of grass that I put over the log.

    I don't like the grass, looks too unrealistic. I suggest you try the Grass Turutorial. The wood texture on the stump is no good either. I suggest using a surface blur of 1 to 2 pixels (or whatever looks good) in order to make the noise less visble. Trying creating the wood texture using the polar to rect method. (I may post an example tomorrow.)

    Here is a quick example of a stump and some grass:

    In order to make this Use the bucket tool and add the colour you want, then use noise and add a motion blur at 90 degrees, followed by a polar to rect. This will create this effect. I suggest using this on anything that has wood (like the Stump and the Axe.)

    For the axe take out the black outline.

  4. Thought you might want to know that, whenever I try to download through Installer, I receive a prompt stating that an error has been encountered and whther I would like to continue. If you click "yes" then the program freezes.

    I did the manual install and put the .dll's into the Effects folder in PDN but I cannot find the Effect anywhere after booting the program.

  5. Ok I've been working on my very first sig for a couple of days and I need some help on how to make it look better,

    specificly I think the text needs some work..not sure what to change it to though, or mabye i should move it, I'm not sure. Im open to all suggestions though.

    Kaiden I like it, I like the colours and the layout. Only suggestion is fix the border by making it a solid colour.

    I need to know how to make the blood cells transparent (like Jello) and get that curve in the middle. Plus I also need some more suggestions on how to make it better.
