Seerose Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 @Seerose & @Maximilian - I am on it ............. Hopefully by the weekend. Dear Pixey! Thank you so much... Quote Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Gandhi
Pixey Posted January 30, 2016 Author Posted January 30, 2016 Yes, Sarkut's method works very well on larger areas & different thicknesses whereas the method I use works well on areas that are thinner & more uniform in thickness. 'Tis funny about making Gold in PDN. Here is where the word 'size' makes such a difference. Somethings look great by doing one method, but doesn't work on another. I also sometimes use the Alpha-Displacement method (I used this on the bling bracelet) but again, it all depends on what you are making. Your way is great for the finer stuff and I particulary like it in delicate text . @Seerose - glad you liked the tute . 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.
barbieq25 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Yes, the Alpha Displacement works great with glassy stuff too I remember Lance did a tute on Fans with it years ago Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry. April Jones, 2012 Gallery My DA Gallery

Goonfella Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Some great stuff posted since my last visit Pixey. You just get better and better. Your portraits are stunning.
