M@RS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I can't see anything, could you put the pictures in your LF album please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Wolf Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Ok. it's in. Btw, if it still doesn't show up, heres a link- http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii28/sorak318/ShellWT-full.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 It's nice, but the white line around the gun is a little um...distracting. If you saved a layered version, you might want to just erase a little around the edges. If not, there's not much you can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Wolf Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I noted that too, is this better?: http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii28/sorak318/ShellWT-full-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@RS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 That's not a bad commando, I hope you don't mind but I posted it that I way I didn't have to keep switching between the tabs okay quick note, try making the symbol over his heart 50-60 opaque that way it looks like it was painted on the armor, instead of just changing the color of the armor fill the armor highlighted the color you want with about 55 percent opacity that's all I can see right now, not a bad commando if I do say so myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be sure to check that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I kinda like the name Rockslide for this one. the coloring and kind of bulkyness (the hayabusa head) makes it fitting for him. btw which program did you end up using for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Wolf Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Serif Photoplus 6. It works pretty well, but I just have to get used to some of it's kinks. The layering for it sometimes messes me up, but it's what TXH is using, so it should work fine. I just need to practice a bit more. this is my second or third that i've used with this program. So, I think it works pretty good for being free and all. (btw, I might not be on very much 'cause I just lost my mobile-internet-card. lol. But I might be around some wireless... hopefully.)

Rinku Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 WOW THAT PROGRAM WAS FREE!?!?!?! That is definitely a program that I would use (if it works on mac). Great job on the commando like it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 For anyone who wants to do this and needs software Download Serif PhotoPlus 6 &/or Gimp Free!! Adobe Photoshop works great, but is very expensive. Other programs work too, use what you're comfortable with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@RS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Nice...but I think I'll stick with my Photoshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinku Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Here is Norvits (finished hopefully) with two different blaster pistol versions. If you have any suggestions please post 1. 2. 3. Also I was thinking of trying to make a helmet variation like Neyo's , if anyone would like to try this please feel free to do so because it is going to be a while until I will get it done.

M@RS Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I can't right now... here are the symbols on his armor http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/e/ee/Neyo_logo.png I did a test with the EVA head from Halo 3, it came out okay, and I finally got the glow from lightsaber on armor look perfected I have the nogun eva head model if you want it, I'll post it if you guys want it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Go ahead and post it. it's always useful to have everything to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@RS Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Alright, give me a sec I already added the lightsaber glow on the armor and helmet for you I have a question Liwar, when you add the decals on a commando how do you do it, mine looks like clear stickers, yours looks like paint, how do you get that look?

Da_man Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 ^: The trick is to make slightly transparent. I persdonally do 70-60% opacity, so that be 20-30% transparent. Thats also how you do paint in odd places, like the black under armor stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General LiWar Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I use several different techniques. I guess the one I use the most is I copy the section of the clone that will be colored and paste it as a new layer. Then i double click the layer in the layers pane which opens layer style. I then do a color overlay(or whatever it's called) and recently i've been setting it at "hard light" but i usually just scroll through to see what looks best. I actually rarely use transparencies now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@RS Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I do the same thing as Da_man but I do 50-60 % opacity, I'll have to try what you do Liwar and I've been experimenting with different types of coloring and filling... Thank you General Liwar, I love the way you do it! It comes out with a lot better results (I think) Here's my first commando using Liwar's method of coloring...I named him Verd it means 'Warrior' in Mando'a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
