I was bored tonight...

[playloud]

...so I decided to mess around with Photoshop. I know I am no professional, but what do you guys think?

 

"Are you not entertained?" (pun intended)

 

 

 

Before..

 

 

 

After...

[Pho3nix]

Good job

 

That lightsaber hilt could look better though

[RC-1162]

nicely done! i have no qualms about the hilt. got any more?

[Lantzen]

Haha, nice

[MTV2]

"Are you not Entertained. Are you not Entertained! Is this not why you are here?" "Spaniard! Spaniard! Spaniard! etc." Great movie.

 

anyhow, looks pretty good, though you could blend the lightning a bit more in since you can see where it was cut. maybe blur it a little at the edges or smudge it (if its on a different layer, of course)

[Davinq]

Gorgeous mate, keep it up!

 

I would suggest toying around with some LotR characters next...

[Hallucination]

Nice job there.

[Venom750]

looks good man

[playloud]

Gorgeous mate, keep it up!

I'll see if I can find any shots that would work.

[milo]

Wish I could do that.

[playloud]

Wish I could do that.

If you have Photoshop, there are tutorials on the Internet that can teach you how to make a Lightsaber, and how to make Force Lightning.

Me likey.

[playloud]

I reworked the lightning a little bit.

 

[RC-1162]

[igyman]

Nice work man! How did you make the lightsaber and lightning?

[Prime]

I thought Maximus was supposed to be a good guy!

[Det. Bart Lasiter]

I thought Maximus was supposed to be a good guy!

Cake is good.

 

[playloud]

Nice work man! How did you make the lightsaber and lightning?

 

For the Lightsaber, I followed the instructions on the following turtorial (with a slight variation).

For the Force lightning, I followed the following example.

lolz..ive had my fill of photoshopped saber pics over the years....I like jmacs cake though

 

still, keep up the Photoshop practise, having PS skillz looks great on a CV if you go that way in your career

Actually, I am going back to school to get my CCNA cert. I am an MMORPG Game Master at the moment, but I plan to get into networking.

[Astrotoy7]

... I am an MMORPG Game Master at the moment....

 

you'll have to excuse me, I work in the Health Sector.... what does an MMORPG Game Master do exactly ?? Maintain servers etc ?? which game are you involved with.... nb. if its Galaxies, lie and say its something else, lest you be banished forever Galaxies sucks the big one

I can't say which company I work for.

 

Basicly, if you have a problem in-game and need assistance, you submit a petition. Then a Game Master (GM) will answer the petition, and try to assist you. The short answer is, we are in-game support.

[MTV2]

but why call it Game Master? it sounds like your trying to be cool and telling everyone your the Master at games and no one can beat you. why not, Game Helpers or something of the sort?

[playloud]

I didn't make the title, and I don't know the history of it. That's just what we are called.

 

Edit: Found more information about the history of the Game Master.
