My first ever smiley.

Curiosity wouldnt let go, love the effects layout. :wink: The improved effects UI is awesome. All of the coders for the program and plug ins deserve massive thanks. Seriously awesome !

I wish i would have come up with my idea sooner. You did a great job JF :wink:

Awesome

You guys are much braver than I. I dont want crashes. :oops:

Doesnt 3rd place get to at least taste the frosting?

Another comissioned piece for a sig I call this " Fall, In Glass" Reminds me of jolly ranchers

Now were talking. Vlads getting bad. :wink:

Funny thing is he wanted virtually no radial gradients. So the one he chose Is quite a bit more flat looking than these. Whatever, money is money. Nice flare on the Julia.

That first one is really cool, victor.

The first music I taught myself was Iron maiden. I am very aware of these guys, Still get chills when I listen. Guess I am a die hard fan.

Thanks Salu I actually cropped the lightning and chopped it into that form. Lightning pics are tough to manipulate.

The orbs are handdrawn electricity.

Whats funny is I really dont like the whole thing much :oops: I do like my blued metal texture though.

I like that sig of yours, Its cool Thanks. The orb turned out really well. Many of my recent orbs are made the same way.

An Orbs & a whole scenery is a different story. One usually put a lot more thought & work into a whole scene. That why more users will give a "wow" comment. photo realism...You still have some ways to go :? . Nah not so far to go considering I picked up digital art in july. Having never done graphic art and having come this far in that amount of time means Photorealism is a matter of months away. The only element missing from the orbe was a photo realistic surface sheen. I have been studying that. My art is a time bomb its only a matter of time before i have absolute cognitive control of my gathering of realizations in utilizing this program. :twisted: In other words I will have absolute creative freedom in PDN soon enough.

Steve Harris! (repost because of the link between these two pictures ) ! ? My iranian buddy wanted this 100% PDN bloodbath His username is farhang, @ all the folks that loved it What is wrong with you ? :shock: Have we all watched friday the 13th too much? And thanks But I post some seriously cool orbs with depth and near photo realism, and you guys praise and react to bloody axes, You are aware of what this says about you right? ( too many scary movies)

Ow my eyes :shock:

I have a friend who is an axe lover, over in iran. cultural comedy aside he had to have blood on his axe, so I finally got off my axe and made it.

Do my sig tut that will get you started. :wink: Aside from that I think you may do a cool variation on it. As far as glass goes there are several ways to go about doing that. may i ask jsut exactly how you made that.... huge mangled ball of flesh??? Layers and dents . Layer properties allows for a lot of manipulation like this whne mixed right and with the right colors. I started doing the blood splatter tut, i got as far as reading the first few instructions and just decided to go my own way altogether. You are the only hellbound vampire here Vlad, I havent done blood colored stuff in a while

Do my sig tut that will get you started. :wink: Aside from that I think you may do a cool variation on it. As far as glass goes there are several ways to go about doing that.

This orb is made entirely from the background. Vlad I think they have special counseling for chrome addiction Youre getting that stuff down pretty well.
