Description
For the Monthly Contest from , ponies fighting aliens.
Man, I was so glad that I could use Photoshop to spruce up images for the contest. Of course, I'm a Photoshop noob, so the magic glows didn't come out nowhere as good as I expected.
And I'm not sure if the blur tool gave out a decent antialiasing-y effect, but it certainly gave a more out-of-focus effect.
That's the problem I have. I might have an eye for angles and stuff, which I got after taking so many Gran Turismo photos, but I still lack the artistic eye.
Anyway, it's done now.
One theme down, two more to go.
Oh yeah. Yet another reference.

On my other computer, which literally had NO anti aliasing, I used the blur tool on GIMP. It seemed to hide it well enough. So don't worry, it's a decent way to hide it.

Do you leave it at 100% opacity, or do you tune it down?

I just go to Filters > Blur > Blur on GIMP. No settings or anything, just a quick blur. If Photoshop has a "Quick Blur" or something, I'm guessing it would be something like that.

Wow, is that a red-eyed Vinyl model? Fantastic.

She's part of the pony package by Poninnahka, if I ain't mistaken.

But the last time I was there, it was featured with her magenta eyes. Are you sure the red eyes was already come together as an extra skin? You know, like the Soldier, Valve prepared them with BLU, normal & worn out clothes too, hence multiple skins in 1 model.

Hmm... I'm sure it's included in that package, along with the pony props.Β It's the only Vinyl doll I have.

I'm back, I just checked the overhaul version, nope, both Set Skin & Set Body, I didn't expect her shades to be part of the model instead of a movable object. 
When I took a closer look of your Vinyl, it seems her eye ball is so much, I almost got deceived her eyes for being red, but it was magenta instead.

Hmm...
I remember I downloaded a pack of eyes from the group. Maybe they turned "my" Vinyl's eyes red?

So you can reskin? I saw another artist make a reskin of Vinyl too except not just the eye being pure red, but he also modify the whole mane to become other colors as well, I requested it recently, but not sure of the reply.
So.... unless you can teach me how to skin. I'll do it myself if I have no other options, which I'm glad I saved a video out of it. A guide to create your own OCs but I'm surprised the video maker used a Vinyl model.

It isn't reskinning, but it was a package that I just had to extract from a rar file and save it on a folder.
But now I'm not sure. When I get home tonight, I'll check my Vinyl ragdoll to see the exact color of her eyes.

You might as well use Nahka's overhauled models, they are more up-to-date, that's where I get my Vinyl from. Unless if yours is an outdated version, maybe, I think.

Now I have no freaking clue of which package I got...

Right now I go ask, SFManiac, a person told me he done the reskin for a special Vinyl he requested.

I'll have a look and see, maybe I wasn't sure in the details. Because I don't want to do the extra skinning work though.

what you do is break the legs and stab it in the thorax while using the chair seat as a shield. now if you are going all out, you break up the entire chair and use the shards to kill it

...I believe you have just shown me an entirely new level of nerdism.

in a good way or bad way?

Not really sure. I guess it all depends of who's judging the nerd: I, personally, don't mind, being a bit of one myself in my own things.
