Cool! Nice job NMP

Gorgeous arts everyone!

Thanks for the reminder, Jumble! I had completely forgot

Here is another piece I made, I'm not sure about the new show Defiance but I love this woman already...

Oh this is gorgeous. Been meaning to check out the show.


Not sure if I like this or not. I planned something completely different and came up with this. Hope it qualifies.



Seams to be a bit blurry. Probably because of PB.

Thank you Sci!

And I love the sig! (I think the blurriness gives it a little bit of a soft feel. )

Thanks Maneth. I also love her in straight hair. So aluring IMO.

Thank you Sci!

Aww Thanks Yami. I feel better now.

Ok. Couple more of Alex. The one with her hair sweeping over her eyes reminds me of Jessica Rabbit for some reason.

Great work, Yamii. She is mesmerizing, I know what you mean. I haven't watched Defiance, yet.

I like a lot, even with the slight blurriness. I like Alex Kinsgton...she is quite intense.

Alex Kingston tut

Spoiler:

I first started with a canvas of 1000x300 to set up the Alex pics I wanted. I used this pic and sectioned them off and made sure the background alternated. When I was done I cropped it.





Then I reduced the height to 110 so it could fit my sig (600 x 180, Black background). I used the strip twice to fit across the sig

I placed a layer underneath the Alex pics and chose two different colors. In my case it was the darker shades of orange and blue from her backgrounds. Then in the under layer I use the blend tool, set the "Shape" to bi-linear. Click and drag cursor til you like it. I did it in a diagonal direction.

For the black under Alex pics I just used the rectangle select tool and filled in with the black.

Next layer (top layer) I used this pic twice, side by side and I think I used either screen or dodge. I forget if I lowered the opacity or not. Adjust any coloring for subject pic and texture if you wish.




I used Honey Script for text.

I hope I remembered everything.
