Ash Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 hmmmm, much better. But I want to make it more realistic if possible, any suggestions?

LFC4EVER Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 you could try a different angle (one where you can add more 3D effects), and maybe include some tones of light too, as it looks a bit flat.

Tendou Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Please help me, thanks. My friends gave me some tips in improving my signatures. But I didn't know how to do them. 1.How do I sharpen my render? 2. How do I smudge my render in to the blackground? These are the signatures that I'm going to use the tips on.

007 Nab Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Sorry Sabrown, I meant the user that posted just before Ash. I'd commented on Ash's sig already, so I assumed he knew who I was talking to.

oma Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 from time to time by accident I stumble onto a pattern I find interesting. This is one of them, if it where yours where would you take this thing? In which direction does it need to head? :wink: there's a brush I'm developing in here so lets see if the brush has any potential before I carry on any further.

oma Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 no ideas on my picture? guess I'll scrap that brush. ciao Quote My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC4EVER Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 @Oma: i like your brush. Its could be used to create leafy things, e.g. ferns, plants and leaves. It could also be adapted to create other fancy flowery things. I see a good idea there, but i dont have a clue on how to adapt it. Made a PSP on Paint.NET recently (99% on PDN, with images used for reference and the screenshot is an image too) I was wondering on how to make it look more glossy and shiny as if it has a reflection on it, to make it more realistic. Any tips how? Thanks Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldnewser Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I was wondering on how to make it look more glossy and shiny as if it has a reflection on it On the screen, you could make another layer, then add in a curvy white object and lower the opacity. I'm not sure how to say this in words...Let's try this: On the screen layer, magic wand select anywhere outside the screen Then invert the selection (ctrl-I) Make a new layer (make sure your area is still selected) draw a white line anywhere from the bottom to the top (and curve it too if you want) fill the half you want the gloss in with white then lower the opacity Unselect the area That could work for the basic PSP frame too. I hope that helped If I was at home, I would post a screenshot or summin, seeing as my explanation seems kinda coarse.. You should add in a drop shadow too :wink: Quote deviantART Space and the Relative---Space Art Basics Tut (BETA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFC4EVER Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Worldnewser, Sabrown100, Ash: Thanks for your tips. @worldnewser: i vaguely get what your trying to say, but it would be very helpful of you posted an image, as it seems a bit "coarse" as you said. @Sabrown100: i like the glare things you did, looks a bit more realistic..and i think i know to to make them. @Ash: any ideas on how to create the shine on the image you posted? I'm clueless on how to do that. Thanks all Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 @Ash: any ideas on how to create the shine on the image you posted? I'm clueless on how to do that. Select the screen part.

LFC4EVER Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I meant the shine on the body of the PSP, not the screen. Sorry. I'm thinking of adding a reflection of something onto the body of the PSP.

Im open to all suggestions though. Kaiden I like it, I like the colours and the layout. Only suggestion is fix the border by making it a solid colour. I need to know how to make the blood cells transparent (like Jello) and get that curve in the middle. Plus I also need some more suggestions on how to make it better.
