Sylinchen said: Thank you for that tutorial. http://sylinchen.deviantart.com/art/Mosaic-Effect-163988024 ~ the grey one is just a texture that I found on DA. If I went on your DA, would I be able to find that texture in your favorites? ;A; lemayo said: Thank you bb <3the first one is just a mosaic on top i think :D tut by the lovely chierii second one looks like a texture to me? edit: see syli's lol |
 |
| mhh perhaps its this brush: http://www.deviantart.com/art/Checkers-215101661 |
| Ughhh this sucks and I'm lost And I doubt I can do much about the render choice ;-; Help, someone :c Try 1? : Try 2? :  |

| @Transience The second version is better in terms of colors, just make it smoother where the orbs are placed, a bit of more contrast, some sparkles here and there (go with the sig flow) and maybe change the text. And finally, you can either use Sharpen or Topaz filter. |
 |
@Nate Is this better? |
|
| It surely is! A bit too many sparkles on his hair though. But other than that, it's very cool! Good job =3=)b |
|
Thanks! Oh, and do these sparkles do a better job? |
|
| Yes yes! Perfect! *q* |
|
| yeah I'm here again lol I'm not sure how to move ahead with the lighting. Can someone help? Oh, and is there too much contrast? So I worked further on it: |

|
| The edges are too dark imo, and the light sources need to be stronger. :x @Transience |
| I tried making a render for the first time... I'm mostly satisfied, but I'd like to know if there are parts I missed/could've done differently. For example, I noticed that a lot of the subtler bits got left out, especially in the bottom right. What's the best way to preserve those? (I used calculations + levels.) Original Render |
 |
 I want to do some sparkle/fire effect thing with the ball like Sylichen's Aomine's tag but I don't know to :I Anything I should improve? Also is this one better?: |
 |
Thanks. Noob question but how do you add c4d or effects if they are not renders? do you have them as the actual background? |

tsudecimo said: Thanks. Noob question but how do you add c4d or effects if they are not renders? do you have them as the actual background? Those would just be textures then, wouldn't they? Most of the times on lighten/screen/cdodge/linear dodge if they have a black background. If they have a white bg probably on multiply. o: |

|
| This is probably a pretty easy thing to do but I'd like to ask how do you insert a gif onto still images? kind of like tsudecimo's sig above~ |

Cherishire said: This is probably a pretty easy thing to do but I'd like to ask how do you insert a gif onto still images? kind of like tsudecimo's sig above~ Well uh, my personal thought from this perspective is to make a sig with the area where you want the gif transparent, then when you're done apply the image all onto one layer (with the middle or the gif area still empty and transparent), open the gif, put the applied image all the way above the gif and then do w/e you still want to add to it. |
| Ah, well that was more of help then these little dumb tutorials I was trying to look for on youtube LOL. Thank you, I might be trying that. :3 |
|
| Pictures are a bit big so just linking them. Since I can do any advanced PS I decided to practice with some color stuff. Opinions? Base Image Recolor#1 Recolor#2 I know this stuff is probably really simple to experts but Id like some opinions seeing as im a PS nub. |

If you'd remove the border and text on the first recolor, it'd look superb.~ |
Yuup, like that. Aside from just recolouring, you could use textures and adjustments afterwards. Practice! :D |
Nymil said: Yuup, like that. Aside from just recolouring, you could use textures and adjustments afterwards. Practice! :D Ive tried and I cant find textures that are useful or look good. Idk everytime I try it always ends up looking bad xD |

Idk everytime I try it always ends up looking bad xD Try looking up 'light textures' and 'ink textures' on DA and find some that you think would fit. Never be afraid of playing around with the image until you see fit! |

Thanks, found lots of cool stuff to use only problem is, either GIMP cant properly work with them or Im just a doof and cant find the options to remove the black only -.- |

It does but im not sure it works like PS does, that or Im just not doing it right. I screwed with it for a while to no avail but ill try again. |

| What do you think should I add or change to make this picture look better? or should I keep it this way? Any suggestions are welcome :) |
 |

| yo its better |
| thaanks for the help :). |

MADEVIL said: hey I don't know what to do with it next it started as a quote picture but now I want to make a signature so what do you think I should do now I would just put more picture at the back / in the background :'D? |
| I feel like I've created something hideous again :'cc http://i.imgur.com/FAHSlry.png The text is killing it too, isn't it? |
|
Transience said: The text is killing it too, isn't it? That's definitely true. |
 |
| I gave it another shot. How does the wallpaper look now? http://i.imgur.com/q3EEAFg.png |
|
| @Transience Definitely better, but while the text looks good now, it is way to large and steals the attention. As for the wall itself, the colors of Superman and the rest of the piece don't match, letting the render look completely unnatural and out of place. |
|
| Oh, how this for another try? http://i.imgur.com/FbRNwWU.png |
|
| It's been a little about a year since I last did gfx in PS, so I'm trying to practice lighting x.x Just started a few days ago, and I started making this tag but got stuck on how to do the lighting xD not good at this, sorry x.x I still plan to put text, but not now because the fonts still haven't been installed in the new PS |
| Is the question "how" = with which tools or on which positions the lighting should be? |
| @Sylinchen Both :) But I'll probably manage even if it's only on where. c: Thank you, btw. |
| try this out for your tag: https://youtu.be/lt3SYthACn4 |
| If anyone knows how to do this and can either explain it as clear as possible or could give me a psd file to use, I would really really appreciate it. And I could/would credit you! I'm talking about the largest text. |
GreedJun 29, 2016 9:40 AM
|
| @Greed Hmm are you talking about the outline? or the white shadow? |
|
| What type of styles would I have to use to get that font style? That's what I want to know so basically the whole thing. |
