[RodneyIsGodney]

Great Sharp Dressed Man siggies everyone! And thanks Maneth for compiling all of them!


@IcarusAbides: Love the (Sharp Dressed) Bobby sig! So happy he got some love here.

@Shaviva: That eye color tut...do you still know where it is?

@Anyone who can help: If not, can someone help me with enhancing eye color with Gimp?

I think that might be arranged

Oh yay!

Awesome!!

Thank you.

I know the challenge is over, but I finally got around to my Sharp Dressed Man siggy...

After seeing superb Jumble's effort earlier with the gradient colouring I decided to play around a bit and came up with this.

@Anyone who can help: If not, can someone help me with enhancing eye color with Gimp?

I don't know what others do, but I can tell you what I did to enhance the eye color in this siggie.....

Spoiler:

First, I positioned and erased the part of the pic I wanted. Then, down at the bottom of the work area for the siggie, I zoomed in to 400%. I set my paintbrush mode to Soft Light, set the brush size to Fuzzy Brush and whatever size I needed for the area I worked on. Then, I just used the paintbrush with a color blue over the colored area of his eyes. It might be different for the b&w look, though I use the same exact method for color splash.

Hope that helps and makes sense. If not, PM me.

*makes an executive decision*

It's acceptable for the background to be a 'texture', brushes, or 'stock photo', as long as there is only one main pic used ie the 'people' or 'person' that you're focussing on, which you can use as many times as you like as in Josiane's entry

So no using several different pics of Jack Oma

oops, I did my wallie wrong then :: headdesk :: ok, shall make another or two. Missed the part where it said one pic of the person, only got the bw and one color part down.

You can always play with the color levels for the eyes, too (if you're doing a black and white w/ the eyes colored).

Thank you. I will try this and see what I get.

EDIT:

@syfyfan: You're welcome.

I'll try your method too, luvnjack.

@ladygris: Any chance I could get the name of bond font in your sig? Pretty please?

[IcarusAbides]

CROWLEY!!! Oh, I'm so happy Supernatural is being represented here! And that I'm not the only one doing it.

Glad you like it, I was going to use him for sharp dressed man but I didn't have time after making the other three.

EDIT-

Been playing around some more with gradients and came up with this.

That turned out beautifullly. Love that it is just some of the flames that the gradient hits.

Oh, Sharp Dressed Demon! Hope you find the time to make it at some point. But if you don't, I'll make it!
