RaveN Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Either do that, or Use the Bezier Curve with the line tool, and make that fit your car, takes a bit of tweaking...but it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellfire010 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I was just messing around with this plane I found on google. Any tips on how to do this better:BEFORE AFTER I think it looks great! Can you tell us how you did it? Quite simple actually, I simply pasted the plane tiled the camo design tilted to the camo design to align with the plane and tiled again magic wand to outline the plane delete the selected around camo design change blending mode to multiple add plane layer on top and change to multiple and reduce transparency slightly thats it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaveN Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 You must have a small screen then, unless you blew it up very large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westrock Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 [*:2fdf1]Make a new layer on top of it[*:2fdf1]Draw an outline of the car with the brush[*:2fdf1]Refine it with brush and eraser until it matches the car as exactly as possible[*:2fdf1]Use magic wand to turn the interior of the outline into a selection (You may have noticed that this is actually a layer mask approach without layer masks ) Might be easier than to to this with lasso; though PdN's lasso actually gives more useful visual feedback than in most other programs To select the whole car I use the Magic Wand and hold control to "add". If the wand picks up too much, I just lower the tolerance and I can usually get it within what I need. Then I can come back afterwards and trim here and there. To BarkBark00, The Easy Button looks better now, the original one has some dithering showing up, but this one is more solid...I'm guessing you blurred it? However I would have seperated the "EASY" to another layer so that it didn't get blurred as well. And the little lens flair is a good choice. I actually really like that brushed metal look And no I wasn't the driver, I have no idea who that was...poor guy doesn't even know he's an Internet superstar 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I would have seperated the "EASY" to another layer so that it didn't get blurred as well. And the little lens flair is a good choice. I actually really like that brushed metal look I actually started over from scratch. The text is actually on a separate layer, in fact there are 3 layers just for the text. The text is a little blurred but the idea was to have it look like it was sticking off the button.

RaveN Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I love that commercial for the easy button, and they have the copy cat, a cat dipping its paws in paint and making a pie chart, it is hilarious...I crack up whenever I see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Man Dan Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 You know, to get rid of that aliasing, you can draw two ellipsis' on a black background, one white (the larger one) and one black (the smaller one on the bottom right), so that the white area is the shape of the swoosh, save it as a PNG, then use the Alpha Mask Import plugin over the gradient layer. Just a suggestion. :wink: It looks like it has promise, though.
