welshblue 2,897 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) Sons are quite like that. He'll get over it. Especially when he wanted a lift to work My love affair with Diffuse continues on Pg.1. I'm particulary proud of this one ... getting to about 70 % Realism ? Too soon for another tutorial ? Edited January 24, 2014 by welshblue Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELEN 355 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 The silver text is stunning, Welsh. I love how shiny it is. It probably took forever to polish it (pun intended). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniels 129 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 Beautiful! Shines like a brand new chrome bumper I don't think it's to soon for another tuto. If you want to share the tricks of the trade, then by all means Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barbieq25 931 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 Never too early for another tut from you. I love the background too! Lovely bright text Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pixey 3,891 Report post Posted January 31, 2014 Oh yes indeed - you can now add yourself as the King of Metal! The results are simply perfect and I know @Ash would have been jealous. (Wonder where that guy is?) Your Gallery is so neat and tidy - such a pleasure to look at all the goodies Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drydareelin 222 Report post Posted January 31, 2014 It seems I have missed ton ._. Damn Uni uses up a load of my time. I love all your new images man! My favourite has to be this one: http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/360/d/f/second_chance_2_by_pdnwelsh-d6zics3.png but they are all amazing. Great job man.

welshblue 2,897 Report post Posted February 2, 2014 @ Helen, BarbieQ'. Pixey, Beta, Daniels and Dryda' ... many thanks folks. I've got to admit I'm enjoying playing around with text but my biggest critic (daughter) has called my latest stuff boring and why aren't I making cool stuff anymore ... how hurtful Plus I'm enjoying writing tutorials and giving something back like ASH and OMA did for me @ Pixey. I like to think ASH would be proud of how he influenced me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELEN 355 Report post Posted February 3, 2014 Tsk. Tsk. How could she say that you're not making cool stuff any more, Welsh? She should give your gallery a visit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
barbieq25 931 Report post Posted February 3, 2014 BabyBlue needs glasses Has she seen your latest with the diffuse?! The tutes are immeasurably valuable on this forum & for me personally. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELEN 355 Report post Posted February 8, 2014 Hey there, BabyBlue! So happy to see you stopping by. Your dad is an intelligent man and maybe you do find his stuff boring, but to me his work is impeccable because I know the steps that he took weren't easy to achieve.

Drydareelin 222 Report post Posted February 19, 2014 Pffffff Needs more planets, explosions and mathematics. Other than that, great job with the steel texturing! Looks great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,897 Report post Posted February 19, 2014 @ Chimay' ... in the grand scheme of life - not a lot. Just things. @ Dryda' ... Thanks ... I know. Pretty rubbish background, I thought it was better than that. I think I'll stick to dark and moody 'cos I think there's been enough fireworks around me The planets will come when I've got time to do your tutorial. .I've got a pretty good chrome text tutorial done ... but I guess that's all on people's perceptions of what chrome is ?

Oceana 152 Report post Posted February 19, 2014 Your metal / Steel textures are really impressive, as is all your other work too. To pick out one fave would be unfair. I love them all for the detail and work put into them. A really good gallery with a lot of variation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,897 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 (edited) Many thanks Oceana. Your kind words are appreciated ... you can pick a fave - there's some there I don't really like any more ... doodling on pg.1 Edited March 7, 2014 by welshblue 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goonfella 217 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 Love your Fools Gold Welsh. That looks like real golden nuggets set off beautifully by the background. Nice one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oceana 152 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 Many thanks Oceana. Your kind words are appreciated ... you can pick a fave - there's some there I don't really like any more OK then. I will gladly have your factory series Fools gold has a stunning and detailed texture to it, surely worthy of a tutorial perhaps ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELEN 355 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 It's too bad I don't have this fool's gold in my hands. I wanted to go to the bank and cash it to see if they'd fall for it. Shucks. Extremely well-done, Welsh. Looks just like a photo. Wow! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniels 129 Report post Posted March 8, 2014 Very nice gold texture there, Welsh! Been using diffuse again I see I never would have thought of using tile reflection to make a screen like that. Next time I need to make a screen, I'll keep that in mind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
