NOOOOO.... but hey, you got some awesome things up there though!?

last night i was walking home, or a few days ago, The snow came and as the light poles from the beaver main street came under the bridge, the lights captured the snow flakes like diamonds!!!

second night (or last night) the Beaver river actually froze and let out a black haze! the river was like a big obsidian mirror having steam flow from it. it was so magical... i wish i had a camera >o<

That sounds great! I really wanna get a shot of the frozen river. Maybe when the veterans bridge starts to be built I can get some good shots of the construction. The rivers are great right now, only thing going through those waters is tugs and barges. Lol.

llamacria [2010-06-21 08:32:27 +0000 UTC]

Hi, can I ask u something about space art? How do u blend starfields and planets into your picture? I normally play around with blending modes, but osmetimes they dont work.

Is this how u do it? If so, which blenidng modes are the best?

Thanks!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StapledShut980 In reply to llamacria [2010-06-21 22:01:49 +0000 UTC]

Well i dont blend them, i leave the planet on "normal" mode.
when making the shadow on the planets though, dont erase parts of the planet, instead, duplicate your planet (ctrl+j) open hue saturation (Ctrl+u) and turn brightness all the way down to make it all black. then use a high gaussian blur, shrink the shadow a bit (ctrl+t) and move the whole thing backto finish the shadow.

a good tip: dont merge layers, i usually have 40+ layers on my space pictures. when i do anything significant i make it on a new layer.

sorry if im telling you stuff you already know. ask if youd like more help!

i was talking about a devianart premium account. Im not really a torrent person either, i prefer rapidshares and warez sites. I am on demonoid though...just dont use it much.
If you want a really good game, look into ARMA 2. Its great if your system can handle it.
