Description

My old tutorial was all over the place in my opinion, so here's a new one for you. I made it more straight forward with fewer instructions. Obviously, this technique I'm showing you has a wide range of applications, so do more than just make bubbles.

Original Description
As my watchers should know I've been working on a comic , and I"ve just been making circles for speech with no indicators other than position that would tell a person who's talking. Then I found these beauties from SaxonPride


In his artist comments he mentions having a hard time making them. Strangely, one day this idea came to me on how to do it fairly easily, I tried it, it worked, and here is the tutorial before you. I don't know how he made his, but if you don't feel like making them, his are very available. This is just a way I found. If you have any improvements to suggest or questions, don't be shy.

Enjoy!

Yep. By far my favourite digital medium (Illustrator is a close second ). If you're interested I have other tutorials (about 3 ) of some GIMP techniques I've discovered/converted from Photoshop in my gallery in the "Stock and Tutorials" folder.
