HELEN 355 Report post Posted September 14, 2008 It looks like a stage of some sort and a camera lens. I think that it looks pretty cool. Great job on that one, too. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted September 20, 2008 Thanks Helen ... you've reminded me I've got a camera WIP somewhere, I'll have to find it. This next image is to commemorate my 5th month using pdn and for the person who said my images are just glorified pixel art (can't find the 2 fingered smiley) and an attempt at 'glass'. Neither of them are very realistic but something I want to persevere with Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELEN 355 Report post Posted October 1, 2008 lol. I did a similar oval thing, too. I might post it up later today; it's still in progress. Your hoselock looks really good and very adventurous. I love it!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 Thanks Helen. I'm quite pleased with how it looks, especially how the smudge tool helped to make the discreet waterdrop. Currently working on making better looking flowers, seed pods etc but I needed a distraction so Paintbrush Pete was born I think oma's palm leaf tut worked well for the hair Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELEN 355 Report post Posted October 6, 2008 Awww, that's so cute! Great addition to your gallery. I can't wait to see your other images. I just finished pencil-drawing a cartoon. Will soon scan it in and then redraw it with the line tool and will color it in. I surely find your work inspiring to look at knowing what can actually be done with PDN. Great job once again!

welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted October 19, 2008 Unfortunately I've had no time to create lil' Pete's baby sister, but enough time to finish: Frosted Rainbow After helping my daughter with her homework: A Dragons Kiss and a sig I made but don't suppose I'll ever use: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELEN 355 Report post Posted October 20, 2008 The frosted rainbow and dragon are just so breath-taking. Great job!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goonfella 217 Report post Posted October 21, 2008 I agree with Helen. They are both very good. I like the flames in the Dragon. Never thought I would like something a Welshman did! :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted October 21, 2008 Thanks Helen and Goonfella. The dragon piece wasn't that difficult. It started out as blocks of colour with linear gradients; trying to make a fractal sort of look and somehow it just evolved :? The flames are a combination of both the fire effects in the Render department. The frame relied heavily on Boltbait's excellent Selection plug - in. 'Frosted Rainbow' was inspired by an image LFC4Ever posted in the abstract forum a couple of weeks ago. Frosted Glass, Dents, Splinter and Relief were my friends on that one Using the layers saved from Frosted Rainbow, last nights insomnia helped make: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HELEN 355 Report post Posted November 9, 2008 That's so sweet! I love the flower and background. It's just so beautiful! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted November 13, 2008 Thanks Helen ... the flower is meant to be like one of the paper poppies they sell for Remembrance Sunday. It's sort of worked. Thanks Jannettsue ... Pete's lil' sister should be unveiled Saturday night. (I've just got to finish a mini tut' I offered to make for someone) and sort out the face and hair on 'PaintBucket Petra' ... And maybe tone down the colours !!

HELEN 355 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 It's so beautiful, Welshblue! Your picture is definitely worth a thousand words. Very nice job. I love the perspective and everything. The trees, grass, pails, plants, the ball, and Pete and Petra are so adorable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
janettsue 2 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Her pants and shoes are great. I wish the other colors where a little softer (her hair and vest). What I really love is the shrubbery in the background. Way cute! She is all that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welshblue 2,903 Report post Posted November 17, 2008 Thanks Ladies :wink: Guess who didn't reverse the changes after flattening to a PNG To be honest I'm glad to see the back of her, but I'll have a mess around to see what I can do to soften the png file. I'm glad you like her Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
