Artwork for All - challenges, graphics, tutorials

[Hyndara71]

Thanks, M and Hyn.

And I don't believe you're interrupting anything, Hyn. I quite like the color effects you used on that set.

Thanks . Well, the color effects were more something for hiding the different quality of the used pics. Glad that it works .

Beautiful - I need to watch that show again.

Pretty! - love the color intensity

Lovely - so soft

Thanks . And your Tardis-drawing is really cool. Love it!

Beautiful artwork, Oma, Nola, Hyn, Estrela, lg and maneth!

Oma, thank you!

Great job on tutorials everyone!!

They're beautiful sy! I can see several of them getting used in different folks' style sigs immediately

[Hyndara71]

WOW, you made all these textures, Sy? Great work!
( I hadn't had a clou how to make those textures ...)

[josiane]

Wow, sy, awesome work on the textures!

I've been making some too, though not as many as you

I was thinking, as texture-making may be new to several people, it might be helpful and interesting if everyone could very briefly describe how they went about making their textures when they post them. I don't mean anything in-depth and not actual tutorials, just a sentence or two to spark off some ideas.

For example, for mine above, they all use photos as their base, and then a lot of fiddling with the levels/contrast and adding various kinds of blurs to them (gaussian, motion, radial)

[syfyfan]

Thanks Nola, Hyn and josi!

Very nice josi!

I used different kind of brushes and play with blending and color. I couldn't stop

[Hyndara71]

Those looking great, Josi

Gourgeous signatures and textures, Syfyfan. I will be snurching some of your textures.

Lovely textures, Josi.

I don't know how to make textures either, Hyndara.

Photobucket Texture gallery or deviantART gallery (for higher resolution images)

Here's the latest few



The first one is just blurred out flowers, the second is a slightly blurred fabric background and a gradient layer between that and the flowers, the last three are exactly the same - I just played with the final blend settings. They are a combo of a sheet of scratched metal and a slab of marble with a layer of tree branches thrown in.

Once you get started making textures, it can be totally addicting. I've GOT to find a TA - Textures Anonymous

Yep! TA - Textures Anonymous

[Nolamom]

So I decided I need to actually *use* one of these textures...
