For my graphics battle with Seamus at http://gimpknowhow.com/topic/3283735/1/ I went for the white outline + dropshadow feel for this piece. This is a piece that was done for fun rather than for serious practice. As per usual, done in Photoshop CS4 from scratch, no downloaded stocks, renders, brushes, or autoshapes used. http://rosasecta.com/*2394 Spoiler: click to toggle

Did you draw the swirls or did you use the pen tool? I would also love to know how you made the nice halftone effects in the background since you said you didn't use any brushes. It looks awesome. I love the design and it would make a pretty cool wallpaper. The only thing is that the lines on a few of the shapes are a bit jagged.

Haha, amazing! Everything matches amazingly, looks awesome! One this that I don't like is that the clouds go from white to gray, and the outline is white... In my opinion, should go from light gray to a darker one. Looks awesome 9/10.

Actually royal I didn't use any tuts for this. The swirls were done with a pen tool and stroke, I find that for this style, it works best to keep off pressure simulation (keep in mind that I use photoshop) The halftone effect was done with a photoshop filter. I make the shapes in black, on white, then I use Filters > Pixelate > Colour Halftone and set 4 channels to 45 degrees. Then I invert and set the layer to lighten. |

Oh, whoops, my bad. It actually isn't that hard once you know how to make the shapes, once you're done the shapes you just put a gradient overlay, a stroke, and a dropshadow. It's extremely easy to do in Photoshop, as for GIMP, I'm not sure how to do it. I'll see if I can make a tut for this style though. Half-tone is a style where, rather than smooth shading, you use a type of pointalism. Old comic books were all printed in colour halftone. Edited by Chronologik, May 7 2010, 04:10 PM.

Thanks for telling me how you achieved the half tone effect. I know how to do it in gimp but it doesn't come out quite as smooth as that. |

Royal, here's the tutorial as you requested. If it's a bit too confusing, sorry, I can be pretty bad at explaining myself at times, and admittedly, the tutorial isn't in-depth: http://rosasecta.com/*2401 |
