First Attempt at Photoshop

Featured Replies

I thought I'd have a bash at PS for the first time, it took me about 3-4 hours. Layers are b-----s to get used to.

 

 

 

Here it is, don't laugh:

New sig to come!

heres what i do sometimes... to get the same colors as the render, black bg, random white brushing, new layer, paste the render all over the place and run a pick filter on it, at high repitition, then set it on overlay

Ah, right.. I'm doing a sig for myself at the moment. I'm usually a pixellist, having a crack at this though. I'll try what you said. Thanks for the advice. Do you know how to make it look as if it's glowing? Like.... A light around the edges? :)

  • - Feather the render. Or atleast blend it some more.
     
    - Text is illegible, change it.
     
    - Did you make the background? It just looks like an image. :?
     
    - Needs a definitive border, 1px black is fine.

Actually, it's harder to work without them. Most of my works have atleast 20 layers and the layer settings and blending options do most of the work. Without layers I, and no one else, would be able to achieve the effects we do.

i think he made the bg... looks like some blk brushing with a colorize number pulled on it...

It could well be, but it looks very much like trees on the far left, fading to snow in the middle and going back to trees on the right.

Layers ARE useful when you get used to them :notalk:

 

Change the text, it took me like 2 minutes to figure out what it says...

 

 

 

and yes, good for first. At least someone bothers to check tutorials before submitting the first picture.

yes now that i look at it, i see the resembelence, but i myself have some brushes that look kinda like a "crater", and that looks rather simalar, and to the side, just a 3d crystal brush...

Wow. :shock:

 

Compared to that, you don't want to see my first try.

Whhaaaat? :-s

 

 

 

Anyway, I like the sig. Text fits nicely in my opinion, though it could be a little clearer. Random feet FTW! =D>

Writing in colour was fun while it lasted...

Yeah, 100% my background I used about 4 different brushes for it. I used a total of about 8 layers for it. I've almost finished my second piece. Pretty addicted to it, now. xD I'll post it up in about 20 minutes.
