Ego Eram Reputo Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 i think you should read the tutorial guidlines... Why would that be? Let's see..., Screenshots - check Title - descriptive Placement: Tutorial/Textures - correct Search for like terms: plaid - nothing shows up Is it unique? Yes it is Outcome - looks like plaid fabric to me Does it run foul of guideline #5a? Not in my opinion. This is a little more than just random effects piled on each other. Does it create exactly the effect described? Yes it does, and I think the final effect, simply achieved, is quite good. I don't understand your comment . Yes this is a fairly simple tutorial, but that's OK. If you don't like it, let's have some constructive criticism (and leave the moderating to the Mods, 'k?) 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...
Mayor_McSteeze Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Personally, i think its a very clever way of making a plaid texture, and everyone loves new tutorials right?

csm725 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Very time consuming for such a simple result, I believe Curmudgeon suggested something with Noise Motion Blur, and possibly a 'cross-hatch' plugin? Just nitpicking here, the background color of 255,0,0 - 100% Red is very harsh on the eyes! Good tutorial though.

ptuZ Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 K, sorry for my comment (i realise I was wrong about the guidelines) just thought it was a very simple effect. No harsh feelings. My Forum Gallery My dA Gallery Graffiti tutorial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 (edited) Nearly identical to one I showed a year ago: Pretty simple to make: Create a new square image Add noise, full intensity and coverage, and no color saturation Motion blur at 90°, centered, and distance of 40~60 (to your own taste) Duplicate this layer...on top layer, rotate the layer 90° and set blending mode to Overlay Merge down, and voilà You can color it the way you're accustomed to It yields this: Edited October 3, 2010 by Curmudgeon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csm725 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Yeah, that's the one I was talking about @Curmudgeon. That's the one I have bookmarked.

barbieq25 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 hardyboyz619, I like your tute & it would lend itself to many combinations of colour, as shown by Sarkut's effort. Bravo on your first tute! Curmudgeon, your effect is more like linen & very nice outcome too. I hadn't seen that tute either. Now I have 2 new tutes for textures to try out.
