HELEN Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I love Retrospace!! The design goes really well with the space image and the font is well-thought out, too. You have great ideas.

Goonfella Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I can`t really take credit for the design of the image as I was just following a tut I mentioned a few posts back, but the text effects are mine. Stumbled on it by accident and thought it looked better than the one in the tut. Glad you like it though.

Goonfella Posted March 2, 2009 Author Share Posted March 2, 2009 I think it looks nice. Maybe add one more fleur-de-lis? Helen - Did what you suggested and added a few reflections as well.I think it`s a bit better now. Good idea.

Lance McKnight Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hey Goonie, good job with that RetroSpace piece. What's funny is I was looking at that tut last night. Quote Officially retired from this forum. Have a nice day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance McKnight Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Naw, it didn't struck my fancy. I was actually surfing the net, looking for inspiration, and that's when I did the Aurora pic.

Goonfella Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 New Sword Pic using Oma`s tut Just finished doing Oma`s brilliant sword tut and thought the Magic Circle was perfect for it.

Boude Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I love the sword, only the Greek is wrong, I would pronounce it as magig girgle, for the first and last c you should write a k and for the second an s.

Goonfella Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 So it should be magik sirkle then? Thanks for Greek lesson. Shame I havn`t still got the PDN file for that image or I would change it.

Boude Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 That's the way a Greek person would pronounce it correctly, but you stil have the accent... Quote History repeats itself, because nobody was paying attention the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boude Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 yes Greek persons don't speak like English people, they have an accent. Every foreign person has an accent.

zach321 Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Really impressive gallery. Oma referred me to you as she replied to a post I had made on creating a bottle of wine and remembered you had done one that turned out nicely. The bit I'm struggling with is creating a smooth, natural look (ie, not cut/paste of a pic) but maintaining the soft geometric lines of a bottle and the look of glass and filled with wine. I don't think there is a way to do this using brush/pencil.. it must be combinations of layering and the fixed geometric shapes (ie, ellipse tool, etc...). Can you provide any feedback on how you were so successful with both your bottle and your wine glass?? Thanks! Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you provide any feedback on how you were so successful with both your bottle and your wine glass??Thanks! Z Thanks , glad you like it. I`ve done some digging and found the tut I used to get the shape of the bottle. You just have to used PDN`s line tool to copy the shape and keep going until it matches the one in the tut. I have to admit I nearly ended up tearing my hair out trying to perfect it! I think I used a combo of feathering and Gaussian blur at a radius of only 1 or 2 when I was finished (but before the graphics are done on the bottle or you`ll ruin them!) It`s really a case of trial and error until you get the right outcome. Anyway here is the link to the tut- http://psdfan.com/tutorials/drawing/cre ... m-scratch/ I hope it helps.Look forward to seeing yours. :wink: @Stormy - thanks.

Goonfella Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 Just added what I call my `Classy Orb' . I adapted from this Gimp tut - http://gimp-tutorials.net/orb_gimp_tutorial I know its not a particularly detailed pic but I like the outcome anyway. I think it would be good practice with the ellipse tool for newbies.

HELEN Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Those are the steps I take when I make my own orbs. Very good steps and your outcome is so beautiful and so glossy!
