-Expiration- Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 And so Expiration dived into the mysterious world of glass... *with cjmcguinness' as an example Looking good, you obviously figured out the Shape 3D settings no problem. It does, however, look somewhat 'cloudy'. Try toning down the contrast of the base image. Also, if you lower the opacity of the glass block and duplicate it, using curves and combinations of layer blend modes (color dodge or reflect) you might get a better result. Also, try putting some sort of background, something that will show off the glass and allow you to play with refractions (distortions through the glass). -CJ Thanks for the tip CJ, being a master "glass blower" yourself. Call me expired. Please. Don't go counting your chickens before the pack of rabid ravaging foxes attacks. -Sozo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't consider myself a 'master' by any means; I've just discovered this technique recently and am learning all the time. But thanks anyway for the compliment - looking forward to your next effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Ryan Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Working on a human hand, so that I can eventually get a nice looking sig going. Sorry I hid the layers, I didnt notice till I posted. I also realize that it needs some work, from the outline to some more blending in the shades of black and white. Overall, I think I am getting the jist of it, and constructive critizism(sp :?: ) is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 for nice puffy clouds, you can (on a new layer) use the paintbrush with a big size draw something like a big cloud shape. Then Gaussian blue (or True Blur) so it looks rather faint. Then magic wand select them and render clouds and play with the settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panhead Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 i would set your Primary: White Secondary: Completely transparent Render Clouds, choose appropriate settings gaussian blur and cut and paste the clouds where you want My deviantART iGraphix ~96% of teens won't stand up for God.

usedHONDA Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 @Valor Knight: Very nice I thought I would post this one, knowing that it's 100% Paint.NET, no source images. I have like 10 others just like that in my PDN image folder, but that one is more of a combination of the others.

Mike Ryan Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thanks Oma! It was somewhat inspired by your tut. I fixed up a lot of the issues with the main finger and am working on the second. I think I might add a ring to this finger using Ash's ring tut, any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
