theonlychad Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 the space pod is excellent but i feel that i should critique are we alone a bit. The planet's glow should not flow around into the shadow area of the planet. If you have the glow on a separate layer still run a radial transparent gradient on it so that the glow is only on the light side of the planet. The texture could use some work but it is fairly decent. About the only thing you should really fix is the glow . You have great potential and i will be watching you for sure. You should join pdn fanatics we are a bunch of pdn junkies over there and we love to help out each other. Quote "Clearly it's a very serious and literal meaning.

Splicit Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Wow, your pictures are great! What I like most are the signatures and the spacescapes(I usualy dont like 'em.). Quote See my gallery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 Wow, your pictures are great!What I like most are the signatures and the spacescapes(I usualy dont like 'em.). Thanks Glad you like them I was messing around with a few photoshop tutorials again, trying to see if they are possible in PDN. Now this one was tricky, it was a tutorial on making a unique "christmas" card. Now the picture isnt perfect, theres quite a few things wrong with it, but you will be able to get the general idea of the picture. Please bare in mind this was my first attempt at creating this card. I might have another go later on today. Practice makes perfect apprently.

barbieq25 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Not bad at all! Love the concept...good onya for trying. It is actually quite realistic...there is a bit at the bottom just left of centre that looks like someone has run their finger thru the snow. Very nice! Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

sokagirl Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Very nice , just the edges around the card need smoothing out ^_~ good idea though .. Where did you go to get those tutorials ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 yeah, the edges do need smothing out, something went wrong when i merged layers O_o, but it was my first try at something like that, so i am going to give it another shot anyway, was messing with photo's and i made an alien cat: Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oma Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Hi Midgetalien, I must say you have some diversified artwork. That poor kitty looks like it was sitting on Frankensteins lap when the switch was thrown. I'm not a fan of how it turned out, I happen to love kittens, but I certainly applaud your fearless plugin use. what really drew me in was this image. simple and sweet but truly effective. great job Now you be certain to have yourself a wonderful Christmas. ciao OMA Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetalien Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 hahaha indeed i do - i feel that the more areas that i practice in then i can apply those aspects to other areas. make sense? Thats why my gallery is a bit diverse lol I am glad you like that picture - It has a "brother" of sorts but i didnt think ti was very good so i didnt upload it. But for anyone thats intrested here it is: I also made that into a wallpaper. I will upadate my first post with links to them.

Midgetalien Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Working on a logo: I am thinking of creating a website for the better of my pictures and future work, good idea?

Midgetalien Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 The eye one is a brilliant idea, and the snake one. Great use of P.I. and Weave.Very nice Thanks the snake one took the longest to make - whats P.I? lol. The eye was created using waves and Gradiants.
