dukedudez Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I want to add a pair of sunglasses to a painting of Shakespeare (Don't ask me why, haha) and I have no clue how. Any tips/tutorials? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdnnoob Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Find a picture of a person wearing sunglasses with his/her head in a similar position as Shakespeare in your image. Paste the picture on a new layer above the one with Shakespeare. Erase everything but the sunglasses. Use the move selection tool to adjust the glasses to fit. Use feather or AA's assistant to smooth the edges of the glasses if needed.

dukedudez Posted August 28, 2011 Author Share Posted August 28, 2011 (edited) Ohh, ok. I tried it today.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Not a bad effort! BTW I've replaced your image with a link. Rule #29 sets the maximum size of posted images on the forum to 800pixels in any one dimension.

dukedudez Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Ohh, thanks for that bro. Any tips on improving it? Also, I can't seem to find the feather tool even though I used to have it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountnman Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 feather can either be under effects/object/feather or effects/selection/feather Quote SARCASM- Just one of the many services I offer free to the public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukedudez Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 Haha, very true. But the Shakespeare one didn't look as good. And I can't find feather in paint.net. I looked under the effects folder of paint.net in program files and all I see is feather.1, feather.2, and feather.3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I think mountnman meant the Effects menu in paint.net. If you haven't got Feather installed, go download BoltBait's plugin pack: HERE.

If you haven't got Feather installed, go download BoltBait's plugin pack: HERE. I checked the effects menu as well. And it's weird because i downloaded his plugin pack when I first got Paint.net. Can I just download the feather file separately and add it into my effects folder? Edited August 30, 2011 by dukedudez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 You'll have to download and unzip the whole pack first. After that you can just copy across the feather.dll, but I really, really recommend installing all the *.dll's. BoltBait has some truly excellent plugins in there that you will surely find useful (that's why his plugin pack is pinned on the forum - it's considered one of the best ).
