Midgetalien Posted November 8, 2009 Author Share Posted November 8, 2009 New stuff! Exepriment with Gradiant for "moons": Tried a Photoshop tutorial in paint.net, had to compromise a lot but i think i got there: First Attempt at an Asteriod: Small Nebula (that i might make into a Tutorial) Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I like your Gradients with Moons. The daytime one is best. Maybe reduce the opacity of the moon slightly though. Did you make the clouds as well? Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted November 8, 2009 Author Share Posted November 8, 2009 I like your Gradients with Moons. The daytime one is best. Maybe reduce the opacity of the moon slightly though. Did you make the clouds as well? Thanks Nope, the clouds were from a stock photo, all did was remove the sky and other objects and placed it over a gradiant background. It took ages to get the gradiant for the moon as there usnt any "cresent shapped" gradiant. So i used a mixture of the circle and stright line gradiants, over lapping the circle one again and agian in an arch shape to get the cresent gradiant. Once i have perfected it a bit, i might upload a tutorial. At the minute i am copying a Photoshop tutorial and changing it to suit paint.net.

Goonfella Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Crescent gradients are easy. Once you`ve made your planet use the wand to select it. Add new layer and fill selection with black. Then get the move selection tool (NOT the move pixel one) Move selection down and to the right or left depending what you want. Invert selection. Delete. Then just blur and adjust opacity to want you want. :wink: Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sokagirl Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I love the Gladiator one , the first one especially .. Very nice :AddNoise: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 Thanks took many layers to get that nice cold feeling to it, along with the blue glow on the fur I think that the blue/cold feeling gives merit to the quote and seriousness of the sig. But i cant praise my own sig lol. Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted November 18, 2009 Author Share Posted November 18, 2009 Ok i finally got round to understanding brushes! I download some and played about with them. Below you can see my first finished bits of art using custom brushes. I feel like i cheated useing brushes but actually the image is like 80% PDN. I tweaked and messed around with the brushes so much that they are completly diffrent to the actual brsuh i used. Anyway, i managed to get some nice effects so i made sigs and avatar from it too. let me know what you think Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midgetalien Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 new avay to match my grunge sig: new sig: been watching a lot of avatar recently so expect a lot of sigs/avatars based around that show lol.

Aislin Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 did you use feather on your planets? I can se some hard pixels if you know what I mean....The planets look very nice, that's the only thing I have seen that could be better (in my eyes tho) The purple signature is very very nice! Am looking forward to see new stuff :wink: Quote Websites Flickr Gallery Second Life Arts Ais Digi Paintings Tutorials Digital hand painting Digital portrait paitning Second Life Picture editing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midgetalien Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 Heres some new stuff. I found a Photoshop tutorial and thought that i could make a spaceship in PDN. However the Photoshop tutorial relied heavily upon techniques thats PDN does not have. So after many hours i finally came up with a PDN version, and its much better in my opinion. Anyway, i am in the process of writing a tutorial for it Heres the pod: Space pod 100% PDN: Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
007 Nab Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Very nice Midgetalien! I can see you have a lot of potential - I especially liked this one: It's such a great concept that I think if you keep working on it you can have something truly amazing - just fix the shadows on the left cliff and play around with the smudge tool to blend your lights and shadows better - also if you were to increase the contrast I think it would work better as well. Keep it up man! Quote "pyrochild, you're my favorite person ever. We should go snowboarding some time."~ 007 Nab. Ish. PDN Gallery | I Made a Deviant Art!
