barbieq25 1,051 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 A fab manip! Well done! I like how you've seamlessly combined all the elements. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry. April Jones, 2012 Gallery My DA Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
Daniels 129 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Very well put together. I also like the hand-painted kind of look you gave it. Quote Logo/Banner Competition My Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Thank you all. ^ I've added links to the Rusty Barrel tutorial and the main plugin used. Daniels, Laplacian Pyramid Filter plugin gives a gritty, dirty or in some cases an HD look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dug 85 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Doughty. Excellent piece,I love what you can do with the LPFilter. I use it in my photography sometimes. This piece was meant for the filter, as it doesn't suit every image, really well put together. Nice One! Try the plug-in Increase Local Contrast at a low setting 1-5,for a cleaner more subtle effect. That was what I used for my new sig. Quote MY GALLERYD.A.TheRawAtom Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted August 1, 2013 Report Share Posted August 1, 2013 Thanks Dug and thanks for the info. I haven't played with Local Contrast one to much, but if it gets me closer to images like your new sig that would be nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yellowman 276 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Doughty that is really nice, the barrels look like they were originally there, but the cat is scary, maybe it is out of scale? Welshy, Nice try looks good, it has some glossy, does she eat same food that we do? Quote My GalleryMy YouTube Channel "PDN Tutorials" Link to post Share on other sites
barbieq25 1,051 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Welshy, I really like what you did with this. I miss Aislin & same as you - big fan of her art. With a diet like that no wonder she looks that good Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry. April Jones, 2012 Gallery My DA Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted August 3, 2013 Report Share Posted August 3, 2013 Welshblue, love her luscious lips. Some make-up commercials go on about glowing skin. Yellowman, yes, I was losing to much detail shrinking him down and the image looks cartoony anyway, so I left him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HELEN 360 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Welsh, that actually looks like you digitally painted that and you haven't? Amazing details!

DrewDale 795 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Modified. Original. Completely inspired by Doughty's post. I duplicated the original image, used laplacian pyramid filter on it then on the upper image used TR's Line tracer plugin and set the layer to overlay and opacity on 70. Added the barrels from Skullbonz tut finished it off with a ladder, text and a little red paint on the nearest barrel. Thanks for the inspiration. Cool image Welshblue, top work indeed mate 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Drewdale, love the look you achieved. Scary not cartoony. I'll have to keep playing and thanks for your inspiration as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrewDale 795 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Thanks Doughty. I thought the original image looked a little too clean for a building in the process of getting demolished. I think the plugins that I used added just the right amount of grime and dirt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrewDale 795 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Great image Welshblue, very good use of metalize mate, I would never think of using it in that way. Thanks for the blend mode tip too mate, I have added a multiply blend on the image in my gallery, works a lot better, nice one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barbieq25 1,051 Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 DD, very atmospheric, I get the feeling of things past & imminent events such as a rat or something about to dart out. Welshy, good call on the blend mode. I love what you have done with the Metallize! I would never have thought of using it for that. You always come up with such creative solutions. Well done both of you! Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry. April Jones, 2012 Gallery My DA Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
Daniels 129 Posted August 5, 2013 Report Share Posted August 5, 2013 Drew: Very nice modification. The grunge did it some good. I've been watching the Marble Hornets videos on YT lately, and the creepy abandoned hospital was the first thing this brought to mind... Welsh: Very good look on both images. Kinda looks like they should be in a video game or something. Quote Logo/Banner Competition My Gallery Link to post Share on other sites
Doomsayer 2 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Hey guys, new user here, started using last week (great...now I sound like a drug addict). Went through a ton of tuts before I branched out and started goofing around, figured I'd join finally! Here's my rendition of one of my fav photos. Original: http://i.imgur.com/Tutsb4e.jpg Modified: http://i.imgur.com/WboFQf2.jpg Huge thanks to all of ya for the tuts and plugins! Great work!

HELEN 360 Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 That's a really great idea! I love how they characters are popping out of their own "world." I'd suggest you use the smudge tool to create some fur for the creature.

Doomsayer 2 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Hey that worked out great! Thanks! Have to play for a bit with it, but that took care of that weird backdrop lighting you can see on the edge of his fur. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doughty 326 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Are you Sharpwriter of DA? Great Stuff. The size of your posted images are over 800x600px per forum rules.

Doomsayer 2 Posted August 7, 2013 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Nope, not Sharpwriter, but I wanted to post his OC photo for credit, he's incredibly talented. And sorry about that, I'll try to remember to re-size next time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
