Here is where I post my latest creation. Most of them were made for fun.

Feel free to comment on any of them. Your comments may help me improve some stuff, or even motivate me to do more.

Ok, now for my first random creation. Basically made for Thamoz since he once requested in the BK Forum, but I'll display them here instead. Took me 2 hours to do this.

Siggy:


and here is the avatar that goes well with the siggy.



I don't really mind if he wants to use it or not, I'm just playing around with Gimp(tm) to try some stuffs and see how it works.

Cool sig. and av. way to go CW

Ah, a heartful of thanks to those who commented my works. Here is more made recently today. So it's fresh and smells nice too.

And now for something different and unique. A siggy and avy made for Elise. Again I don't mind if she uses it or not. It's just I'm doing this for my experimental purposes on using Gimp(tm) tools.

Theme: Goddess of War
Main Color: I think she likes purple or something in that color family.

Again all comments and critics are welcome here. Just don't spam nonsense stuff here or Ebil will get mad.

Here are some pictures I used and haven't used for this little project of mine.

I thought of using Athena for the Goddess of War theme, but she don't have any aggressive picture that I can work with. Too soft for Elise I guess.

Thank you for your time and effort, to make me something lovely, C_W.

I do like them both, but as you know I am rather fond of my old siggy. I will, change my avy to the new one, which I think will look good with the new rank symbol and words.

how do you get the purple exploding from the image and going round it?

To make that explosion, I made a supernova filter.

How I go around it?

Just put them on another layer and put the avatar layer on top of the supernova layer.

i think i understand


ish:P

ill experiment

You think?

Yes, it all requires a lot of testing and experimenting your editing tools.

If you want to experiment CW, how 'bout you give Lucifer a go?

CW - love your art work! Great job. I did nothing special with my siggie and avatar - just framed and blurred...but I thought it flowed as a general theme rather than two discongrous items unrelated.

Is the software you're using freeware or something to buy?

Yes, Gimp(tm) is a freeware software. It has tools that Adobe Photoshop does. Only it's not as good as Photoshop.

I'll see to it when I have the mood and time to do it.

Very cool, I'll get to work on bettering my siggie and playing with some other stuffs. Appreciate the info.

Hello and welcome again to my experimental activities.

This time I've done some work on animations for a BattleKnight Order picture known as Mercenaries of Blood. Adding the bloody foreground, is one nice stuff I managed to test out.



Now since, BattleKnight have strict rules of 100kb restriction on picture file size. I made this one for in game use. The animated one, is good for advertising and attracting people from the forums.




Now for my so called random siggy making. Been experimenting with a feature called soft glow. It makes the picture glow so pretty and look a legendary or heavenly. This sig is made specially for Lucifer Ambros. I'm not sure what his catch phrase is, but I know he would charge in for glory and fight for honor. Hence the Glory (potrayed by his charging avatar) and Honor (potrayed by his dueling avatar). I don't think Lucifer would need an avatar made by me, his current avatar is already cool and fit his personality well.

Note: Lucifer's avatar is a legendary drow/dark elf named Drizzt Do'Urden, from Dungeons and Dragons: Forgotten Realms setting. He is one of the few good drows that live on the surface. More information about him can be found here: Drizzt Do'Urden

Again all this is done by using Gimp(tm). I'm starting to love this tool the more I figure out how to use the tools and gizmos. Feast your eyes on Lucifer Ambros Siggy:




The images below are used in the making of this experiment.

two questions


how do you do blood in the foreground

and how do you get the blood text?

Foreground: Just a simple painting tool called the air brush. Just spray them all over and make them look like a blood. I'm still working out to make the blood look a bit more realistic. Need to play around with the colors and shading.

Blood text: It's a font I have. Downloadable on the internet. dafont.com is a good place to look for fonts.
