  1. Thanks for the kind words. I was lost in paint.net land a good part of the day yesterday until a friend called bringing me back to the real world. Even now I have effects I've yet to play with and they call to me. Sounds like an addiction.

    Oma I like the middle one it reminds me of the cornic on and old building. Isn't it great to have PDN when you can not sleep?

    pyjo I wanted to tell you I have enjoyed seeing your posts and nice family you have there.

    What is Terragen? I'll have to check it out.

    Sorry about off topic but did you hear Microsoft's virtual Santa got busted from the net for being nasty! Oh My!

    Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed my posts. I also enjoyed your trees: I think they are one of the most beautiful things I've seen in this forum.

    I'm now looking for a technique for making grass. This experiment is now my desktop background. I'll improve it...

    Bye,

  2. Do you remember "2001: a Space Odyssey"?

    Well, I recall you that my first post was my best work until now. This means that subsequent posts are likely to be worse.

    The moon texture I used in the previous post inspired me another astronomical picture. I added an Earth and a Sun: it should resemble the opening of the movie. Don't you hear the trumpets of "Also Spracth Zarathustra" sunrise?

  3. Good morning to everyone. I'm new to computer graphics and image editing. I installed Paint.NET about a month ago and I found it very simple and powerful, so I started playing with it.

    This is by now my best work. I'm quite satified with it.

    2Eyes.jpg

    It is 100% pdn.

    The wood surface was done with: Noise, Motion Blur, Polar Inversion, Relief, Rotate/Zoom.

    The eyeballs with: Clouds, Zoom Blur, Brightness/Contrast, Ellipse, Gaussian Blur, Shape3D.

    The light/shadow effects with: Gradient, Ellipse, Gaussian Blur, Primary Color Difference to -Alpha.

    At the end, Flatten and Soften Portrait.

    I made also my own moon:

    I used only Clouds, Sparkles, and Shape3D.

    I hope you will like my work.

    Bye,

    Pyjo.
