Seriously, I have been busy, and most of the tutorials here can be applied in all aspects of special effects.
So just keep patient, I have had an increase in homework lately and not have had enough time....

I've been sick the whole week with pneumonia. So no homework for me.

This was my first attempt at a DC-17 Interchangeble Sniper Attachment. And yes, the Aurebesh actually says something, if you care to zoom in and find out. xD

Nice, you might have just pulled me into my first comic... maybe. Wink

One of these shots is being used for TMC.

That's pretty dang sweet Alpha!
The rockers are a little iffy, but otherwise this is great! The numbers and Aurebesh add a nice touch!

But why are the blaster flares only white? Where are the other colors?

Remember, I was only able to destauturate it. I couldn't revert it back to it's original color.

Destauterate? Is that a word? Or did you mean desaturate, perhaps? Just curious. Wink

Eh. Whoops. xD Anyhow, I'm awaiting that tutorial.

Just because you desaturated it doesn't mean you can't add the lasers after you finished the scope and all....

Well! I GIMPed my first lightsaber! Here it is! GIMP/Photoshop Thread - Page 7 Gimp_lightsaber_test

Wow! That's pretty good!

Yeah. I didn't want to have too much green but I'll probably edit it now.I'll repost it too. Also should I color the core white or green?

by Thunder-blade Tue Nov 04, 2008 1:46 am

Lightsaber cores are always white....

Actually, the is little green/whatever color. More white. The green is only a glow.

Oh my Buddha... Nice, dude. the saber looks way better.

Thanks! This one was hard because in the background someone fired a spartan laser to make it look like a red lightsaber and it was thin so I had to make a lot of guesses and it was hard to get the blur because of the blur from the spartan laser. Also! I am starting my own GIMP business. It's free. It's for GIMPing lightsabers. What you do is PM me if you don't know how to GIMP lightsabers or if you don't have any time or just hate doing it and then tell me what color you want your lightsaber and PM me the image! I will have it done usually in about 10-20 minutes. If I have any delays or problems I'll notify you ASAP. Does anyone want to join me?

by Commander Four Tue Nov 04, 2008 4:04 pm

Yeah sorry about the double post here. Here are some examples of my work on GIMP

I made his lightsaber on the Obi Wan Kenobi Picture.

by Thunder-blade Tue Nov 04, 2008 4:07 pm

Why would you need to make a lightsaber for the second picture? I have seen it before and it had a lighsaber then....

I like the Halo pic by the way!

Oh, I'm still too lazy to get off of my shebs (learn to speak mando'a, trust me) and download GIMP, Embarassed

So why the shab'la fierfek should I learn some di'kut'la nerd language? It'd take a dar'yaim of a lot of time to do, and besides, I'd spell like osik when I have to write English.

Razz

But I don't spell like crap when I write English EVEN though I can speak and write Mando'a pretty fluently. Shocked

Amazing.

Don't tell me, he's French and likes the colour red, right? Ah, don't mind me, I'm a Satinist (I really like silky-soft fabrics). Wink
