lynxster4 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Thank you @ReMake! Nice variants of the wood texture. I, also, have to say 'Bravo'. We need to revisit the idea you had to create a subforum for all textures, etc... I can't find the original post where I attached a pic.. 🤗 1 Quote My Art Gallery | My Shape Packs | ShapeMaker Mini Tut | Air Bubble Stained Glass Chrome Text with Reflections | Porcelain Text w/ Variegated Coloring | Realistic Knit PatternOpalescent Stained Glass | Frosted Snowman Cookie | Leather Texture | Plastic Text | Silk Embroidery Visit my Personal Website "Never, ever lose your sense of humor - you'll live longer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrevorOutlaw Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) Man, this make me miss Welshblue as he was one of the masters when it comes to wood texture. Woodsy was awesome in his old west motif as evident by his awesome gallery. Also, this awesome nugget in variant 6, "...and we will get a texture with an imitation of a bitch." 🤣 Edited May 31, 2022 by TrevorOutlaw 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 +1 Nice. I used Sin Waves (because, lazy). The result wasn't as nice, but passable. 1 Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm finalizing the filter algorithm and the interface. I am not sure that Flip Direction is correct (understood unambiguously) checkbox name. Maybe Inverse Direction is a more correct name. Also, as soon as possible, I will prepare a short tutorial on how to use this filter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMake Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 Added Variant 11. In the near future I plan to add another variant, organize the structure of the tutorial (from simple to complex) and add the PDF file. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMake Posted October 4, 2022 Author Share Posted October 4, 2022 Added Variant 12 (last). At this point in time, the technique of creating wood textures is quite monotonous and differs only in the applying of various effects at the final stage. Perhaps in the future, when updated paint.net and (or) new effects will appear, I will continue this tutorial. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
