Frontcannon Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 I am currently working on a new spacescape! Here is the first WIP shot of a planet, scaled down (originally 2000*2000px): http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/6898/planet2.png Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sokagirl Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Looks interesting to me , will be looking forward in seeing it completed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontcannon Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) But the glow effect to the edge is too constant... I know what you mean, but I can't understand why it is 'too' constant? If I try to make it look irregular, it starts to look nonsensical to me. Looks interesting to me , will be looking forward in seeing it completed . Thanks! I think that will take some time, though. Well, here is a WIP of the 2nd planet. It's more or less a lava ball, and I've never done anything like that before. If anyone has any tips on these.. (what to do with the glow?) http://a.imageshack.us/img337/5832/planet21.png Edited August 6, 2010 by Frontcannon Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falken Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 Nice planets The glow actually looked pretty good on the first one, I think what Leron was trying to say was that there is no lighting on it yet. Here's a very quick demonstration on how I do lava planets I usually find the best way to create lava planets is to have 2 textures, one for the rock: And one for the little lava cracks: Use shape3D on them separately and make the cracks visibly show up in the dark areas of the planet. Play around with the settings a bit and maybe add some glow to the lava Hope this helps Quote 100% Paint.net "I'm the evil fairy witch.

Frontcannon Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Very nice look and explanation, Falken! Thanks! But it's not at all what I am going for, your planet is way older than mine I will work on the glow, the texture seems fine, at least I don't know how to really improve it.

Frontcannon Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 (edited) It was a bit more complicated than I thought, but your .pdn is uploaded here. MINI-TUT -------------------- #1: Fill canvas with Black. #2: New layer. Apply Hexagonal Grid, size 4 and anti-aliased, apply Emboss, turn layer opacity down to about ~30. #3: Duplicate Hex Layer. Apply Half-Tone with dark and brown colours, use lines and low brightness settings. Turn opacity up to ~130. #4: Duplicate Hex Layer again. Apply Crystalize with small crystals, use Colour Tinti to make it blue. Turn opacity up like above, then use a linear transparent gradient from right to left. #5: New layer. Use Hexagonal Grid again with a light green colour, turn opacity down to ~130 (like always ) and apply a radial transparent gradient from the middle. #6: New layer. Make a green dot in the middle (brush size above 150), a bigger red one on the left and a bigger blue one on the right. Gaussian Blur with radius at 150. Set Blending Mode to Multiply. #7: New layer. White dot with similar brush size. Blur again like above, then set Bl. Mode to Glow. #8: The flower is a result of fiddling first with Polar Inversion and then using Kaleidoscope. No exact settings, you have to try it out. I hope you can work with that, questions are welcome.

Frontcannon Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 A little update on the spacescape: When I started to do the background (very bright and colourful if I might add, also 4000*3000px, even with a quad painfully slow sometimes), I realised the lava planet fits not in at all. So that one will go in a later piece Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frontcannon Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Just a little glimpse of what I'm going for: The planet's just pasted in, I think it's going to be much smaller in the final image..

Frontcannon Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 L3ron, you will be disappointed, completely scrapped that background, I just couldn't do the nebula without brushes and a tablet, I think. After much experimenting, I found a way to make awesome nebulae without brushes, but they need a black background to work, so no colours in the finished piece.. Finally, after finding a way to colour the nebulae and much tweaking, I had an awesome spacescape.. but the planets didn't really fit But at that point I just wanted the planets to fit in and somehow worked them in, too bad they mask the nebulae now -.- Anyway, here it is: Spacescape 003 Bigger version: http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/2035/spacescapenew1500px.png There is also a HUGE 4000px*3000px version, will be uploaded on request. Maybe Sozo has some ideas on how to make colourful spacescapes that look good Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 Nebulae has too much contrast. =( Make the planets look better by giving the texture more clarity. Give it a tad more contrast, perhaps?

Frontcannon Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Nebulae = less contrast Planets = more contrast, clearer texture Will do, thx Quote Night Vision Text Effect Tutorial Gallery reddit.com/r/futurebeats | My Mixcloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frontcannon Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 Some logos I made for Reddit's FutureBeats and FutureGarage pages.

HELEN Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Nice planets as well as the logos. I love how the planets have the nice, soft glow in behind them.
