Amatatomba Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I'm trying to make a poster in Paint.NET that looks like the 50s WWII posters/hand drawn pinup girls. That's the style I'm going for. I want to try and turn a photograph into a background that is in this style. Anyone have any idea how to do this or any plug ins that might help?

Myrddin Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The best advice I would offer, and the means by which I would tackle this, is to search Photoshop and/or GIMP tutorials for such artistic styles, to get an idea what would be necessary. Most tutorials for the named applications can be 'translated' quite easily, with the odd sacrifice here and there, but at least it would give you a starting point for Paint.NET. This will narrow down what effects and techniques are needed, and cater for your preference of 1950's styling; your might differ to that of someone else's. In the meantime, or if you come up short, could you post a few examples of the exact posters you are trying to imitate? There was more than one poster-style during the 1950's, all dependant on country of origin, artist, so on.

Myrddin Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Yes, but it's just an example, a little reference for us to focus on to give more appropriate help. I won't ask how what you wrote helps a clearly deceased topic. How to Save Your Images under Different File Types My dA Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
