HELEN Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Oh my gosh! Your daughter is sooo cute! I love the way you put her face inside a gorgeous border! The second picture is amazing!! Very well-composed. :!: Quote Don't spit into the well, you might drink from it later. -----Yiddish ProverbGlossy Galaxy Ball---How to Make FoliageMy Gallery PDN Fans--My DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 Thank you Helen!(for complimenting my daughter and the pics ) I actually had fun making the boarder and I think its the best thing I've done so far. I think I might tweak it a little to even the flowers out some though. I was mostly using them to cover ugly spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowman Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 Yes really your daughter is the most beautiful baby in the world she so cute , I like the frame is well designed, with the colors and the flowers, and good job on the second picture too.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Thank you both! I'm glad you like them. welshblue.. she just turned 4 and already think she knows everything. I'm also beginning to think sarcasm is genetic too. I'm definitely not looking forward to the preteen or teen years! The cuteness is a defense mechanism that keeps her from being beaten.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Thank you very much Oma! I wouldn't say you're late exactly. I take so long to add new stuff that it'll probably be here for a couple more days before I move it to the first page. :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 I thought I would share my newest image. I was playing and made the top part of the hair and it gave me the idea for the rest of it. I think I worked on it for about 7 hours straight today! It's 100% PDN. I'm hoping to tweak a few things later. I might add a more proper nose, or maybe some shading, but at the moment I like it how it is. Any suggestions are welcome as always!

HELEN Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 It's really nice. It looks like one of those cool avatars. Maybe you can use it as yours. :wink: Quote Don't spit into the well, you might drink from it later. -----Yiddish ProverbGlossy Galaxy Ball---How to Make FoliageMy Gallery PDN Fans--My DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted July 15, 2009 Author Share Posted July 15, 2009 Thank you Helen I had actually considered that but I haven't been in the mood for making avatars and siggys lately. I don't much like anything I come up with, I've been trying for a week to get the sig I'm making how I want it. :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Here's the latest! Hope you all enjoy. @welshblue: Maybe we can eventually think of a name for this "sculpture" You seem to be really good at naming your images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Roadkill Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I like it, but I like the glass globe over it. Maybe stretch it so it's more round, but I'd keep it.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Personally, I like Shackled. Despite how bright most of my stuff is, I'm a bit of a dark thinker myself. I thought something like that when I "trapped" the heart in there. @Possum, I'm thinking the same myself about the globe. It needs to be rounder, but then it seems to kind of fit too considering the "table" gives it a slight angle. So, I suppose I'll repost with two images, one I'll remove the globe completely, and the other I'll round it out a bit more and we'll see.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Argh! I've just discovered I saved over the file that had all of the layers separate. So it'll take me a bit longer than originally planned as I'll be recreating the image. I might also decide not to at all. :evil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted July 20, 2009 Author Share Posted July 20, 2009 Well I've recreated them and I think the globe might look a bit better this time so here they are. Shackled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Roadkill Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Well I've recreated them and I think the globe might look a bit better this time so here they are. Shackled Yes, quite nice. I agree, that is what the globe should look like. Very good job, I really like it this way. I too am kind of a dark thinker. I think there is something in the water supply...... :shock: Quote  My Gallery SAC, WOTW and Photo Manip Competition Host To visit the Comps click HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 The second glass globe is so much better. The shape is nicer and the edges are defined better so it looks more realistic. I also like the way you`ve added the reflection . Really nice piece. :wink: And I also think the image looks better with the globe on.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 Thank you both, I'm glad I improved it! I agree that it looks much better with the globe on it. Without it, it looks like something is missing. Now I just need to add a decent background to it. I was also playing with the idea of adding some air bubbles around the top so it looks like there's water in it. I've experimented with a few bubbles, but haven't liked them much so far.

ShadowsOfTears Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Here's the latest. I attempted the bubbles with some tutorials but didn't like the outcome, so I played around until I liked them. I made the balls after looking at a few of Helen's .pdn files. I didn't make them quite as glossy as she does, but I think they turned out nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELEN Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 It's glossfully done. I love 'em! Quote Don't spit into the well, you might drink from it later. -----Yiddish ProverbGlossy Galaxy Ball---How to Make FoliageMy Gallery PDN Fans--My DA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowsOfTears Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Thank you Helen! Here's a few more random images I thought I would share.. The newest of Shackled after a little more advice and tweaking. These are some random wallpapers I made. I didn't upload full size because my isp is all hinky today!

HELEN Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Gorgeous, fantastic, and awesome work! I love how you're building up your artwork. And oh my gosh, the molten image is amazing! 8) Nice job!

ShadowsOfTears Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 Thank you Helen! Always the first to comment I think Molten is my favorite too. It turned out nicely and I'm eventually going to try to do something else with it as well, although I have no idea what at this point.

ShadowsOfTears Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 Its been awhile since I've been able to put up anything new. Finally settled in after the move! I finally decided to add part of a body to my cartoon girl! I also put her in the booth and table I made awhile back just for the fun of it. Enjoy!
