k.digennaro Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 i like them, your a good drawer, how did you draw them if you dont mind sharing these ones here were in a book i have, i simple just drew them in PDN with the line/curve tool, easy enough, i always try to break an image down when im drawing it, i just think about the shapes its made up of, i draw the shape then erase the unneeded portion. just like when you sketch something on paper.

Mastriani Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Some more experimenting with glass textures... I don't know if it's allowed here, but can I express hatred of your person for extreme graphic program capability at the same time as using words like (**deleted string of forbidden expletives**) "amazing" "awesome" "spectacular" and "where's the tutorial for that work?!" That's on a level I can only admire and envy. 100% paint.net One sad attempt at a sig, but it's all about the intellectual property rights anyways.

cjmcguinness Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 @cjmcguinness: WOW!!! :shock: - very nice (glass effect)! i just wish there was a glass tut, it would probably be long, but it would be nice for a "basic glass tut" "amazing" "awesome" "spectacular" and "where's the tutorial for that work?!" That's on a level I can only admire and envy. ...And CJ... :shock: I must learn the secrets of glass... Thanks for all the comments. As for a tutorial, I (and many others) requested similar from Ash a while back when he was posting fantastic glass/ice work. Ash was reluctant to post a tutorial, and I can now understand why. There is no hard and fast method; the effect can be achieved in many different ways - each of my three glass pieces, while using similar methods (Shape 3D), have started with a different base image and utilised varying combinations of effects, adjustments, layers, colours, curves and layer blend modes - it feel it would be quite difficult to produce a standardised tutorial. In a way, I'm kind of glad that there was no established tutorial for this. It forced me to work this out for myself. It's all about experimentation and practise, practise, practise. I'm really still learning this technique myself, each new piece teaches me something new. Perhaps further down the line when I've established some standardized method that produces consistent results I will write up a tutorial. -CJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oma Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 thanks ncfan that's a pretty nice club to belong to. and I agree with cjmcguinness I made much the same remarks about the so many variances way back when I did some of these images in my gallery on DA. I give some hints in among the comments .... but concluded there was just so many variations of color and curves+ combo's it was near impossible to do a tut. http://omagrandmother.deviantart.com/ar ... s-66500906 scroll down and read the comments http://omagrandmother.deviantart.com/ar ... w-66515485 one of my favourites and I'm still trying to get just so nice of a water fall again. come close but never as fine as this one. http://omagrandmother.deviantart.com/ar ... t-66520038 all 100% Paint.Net  My Deviant Art Gallery Oma's Paint.Net gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyselina Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Ok. Alsoo, Can I make a Circle-sized "screen" for painting? Maybe you understand me. Also, I wanna copy something. I select it with magic wand, do ctrl+c and ctrl+v but says I doesn't contain an image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olli Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 The first thing i dont understand. I think , select the object with ellipse , Add new layer , add gradient, radial blur at default settings to soften the edges.? for the second thing , i would suggest to crop it (ctrl+shift+x) and then save it , and then add, its the best way Glad to help you!
