    Coloring a Black and White photo

    Thanks for the tips Lasa, they definitely helped (not that it is particularly evident in my results! [honesty]). I'm just not getting that warmth and healthy skin-tone - so I'll leave it for a week or so and return to it - it is as you say, perhaps our points of departure that make the diffence...

    reflections

    Question: Isn't there some way one can incorporate displacement maps with trying to create a reflection? It is, in a way, a mirrored displacement, isn't it? The object that will do the reflecting will be the actual grayscale displacement map, while the supposed "environment" that will be...

    Coloring a Black and White photo

    Nice stuff. Tried using some form of "selective color" adjustment layers with some hue & saturation (as indicated by Lasa), but couldn't quite get the hang of it. However, it seems to allow for easier adjustment later on in the process as your original selections can still be reselected easily...

    BW to color by LASA

    Along with the other examples you've done, these are genuinely some of the better colorizations I've seen - the skin tone along with the hair look quite realistic. Often these come out a bit "pastel" - bit I think this has to do with the discerning eye of the photoshop artist. You mention you...

    M4A1 Carbine

    Exceptional work p?tr??k, regardless of the subject material. You seem to have a specific technique that you employ with this, the IPod and even your coffee cup avatar. Could you perhaps do a little tutorial on how you made the coffee cup, for example? It would be much appreciated - for the...

    my first paintbrush

    Nice. I also found some great free brushes offered on www.operafloozy.com/brushes/, but the account seems to be suspended at the moment? Probably just an unpaid bill over the holiday season.

    merge line and tone

    Nice effect ronmatt. A tutorial would be most welcome.

    This are two I came up with using a bit of Blender 3D intervention. The smaller image with the sword through the "S" is completely done with Blender - though I did crop it in Photoshop! (sorry)

    Hi Steve, Sorry for the late reply. This is what I had in mind myself - the tartan background since it's there's a celtic type of theme in the miniatures and the miniature with the sword as a sort of underline to the wording. The white edging might not be to your liking - but it helps to make...

    Banner needed

    Hi Steve, I could help you out with an example from which you can develop your own ideas, though it would look better if you could provide some of your miniatures' photos with lower compression. At present the ones on the link provided has a lot of artifacts, making it difficult to use them in...

    I Have an Idea

    This won't solve your problem with Desktop X but on Windows you have the "active Desktop" feature which allows you to set a website as your Desktop "background". What I did at some point was just to embed a clock made in Flash in a page that I set as a start page for the active desktop. Now what...

    Manga

    Very cool ronmatt. Looks like manga grunge clay-mation fusion! Quite edgy.

    Moth, please share anything you come up with in the Campfire area - I've set up a Manga thread there. Already some groovy grunge manga shaping up by ronmatt. http://www.photoshopgurus.com/forum/index.php?topic=7534.0

    Great stuff Mark/theKeeper. Seemed fun, so I had a go.

    Manga

    Referring to Moth's cool cartoony creation http://www.photoshopgurus.com/forum/index.php?topic=7531.0 I thought taking a dab at Manga/Japanese comic book art would be "fun". Look at http://www.howtodrawmanga.com/tutorial.html for some tips on how to go about it. It's a good exercise for pen...

    Elspeth and Babs

    Excellent textures in the clothing. You also managed to capture the characters quite well - one brooding, the other bubbly. The eyes are perhaps not as well defined/striking for "manga" type pieces and the styling of the hair might not strictly conform to the more uni-color/duo-tone more...

    making the impossible, Possible.

    Wendy was the resident glass sphere expert (amongst other areas of expertise). Regrettably her past posts are no longer available. Humble suggestion: Because it's a clear glass sphere, use something like: http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Glass-ball/7888 And then just try a bit of spherize...

    Poster for frogumentary " JUMP"

    Good stuff Lily - as far as frogumentaries go, that's the best poster ever! Now dogumentaries - that's a tough market. It seems to be (I have no idea) a good design - not overly busy with good colour continuity (breaking it with the grassy bits at the bottom in shades that complement the rest...
