Methuselah Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 well.. if ur going for a metallic finish.. it looks a little matt.. as in.. not shiny.. =P why don't you try experimenting with gradients? =) i'm not saying it's horrible.. hahah the model idea's excellent but i think i'd prefer a metallic looking saber.. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Shawn Posted June 8, 2002 Author Share Posted June 8, 2002 I looked for a chrome texture for over a week, I couldnt find a single damn one so I stuck to this. -[JO]Master Shawn Kenobi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PnutJedi Posted June 8, 2002 Share Posted June 8, 2002 Nice saber man. Can't wait til it comes out (do hope its long enough for both of my hands ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Methuselah Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 shawn, you can easily obtain a chrome texture using just gradients. if you're really into detail and you want those micro scratch lines all over the metal, all you gotta do is add some noise to a new layer, motion blur it, and apply that onto your existing chrome gradient. i'm speaking in photoshop terms.. cos that's what i have.. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
