Skins and Accents

Oh my god why must faes be so small! I wanted to make a skin for a girl, but I want to do domethig with facial markings and just nope! ._. Huh this makes me think, I wonder if we'll ever see a pixelated look on a skin? That would be cool.

[quote name="Darketernity" date="2013-09-11 03:14:46"][quote name="JetBlackSteel" date="2013-09-11 03:06:17"]@Darketernity I believe taking a pic off of Google Images and using it on the the dragon is against contest rules.[/quote] @JetBlackSteel It's obviously against the rules, but it doesn't take a genius to see that it's being done on an overlay layer/as a texture/semi transparent. The greatest issue is that 99% you won't be able to tell what individuals have taken it from because the reverse image search won't pick it up. I think there's a lot of validity in one person saying on my deviantart that the great majority of skins here look more like wallpapers than skins. A copy and paste of a star texture here, a star texture there. A semi transparent layer of opacity. @EisenDragoon is absolutely correct. The vast majority of skins look more like a photomanip/gif edit. In any case, it has to be said that RE the texture brushes: the majority are made from photos/stock photos or fractals. Pretty simple to do.[/quote] I did use a photo but I checked rules first and all I saw was that you cant use copyrighted pics. so i made absolute certain that I found a picture without a copyright. After that there was still a lot to do to keep it from just looking like a drawing of a dragon stuck over a photo. I wanted it to look more like a wrapped car or painted dragon :) and thank you Taarnfalk I'm glad you like it!

It took me two nights to finish this dragon, so quite a few hours..... I coloured it all by leaving the pearl layer and the shadow layer alone entirely, and just focusing all night in to the morning. currently it's 5:09....am.....I REGRET NOTHING [img]http://i.imgur.com/SQGJbO0.png[/img] [/quote] But having seen one i want so bad...? neh :P Good luck everyone!

Hey, does anyone have an idea why my photoshop might show colors a lot more bright an reddish than they actualy are? It's kind of a problem right now. (What I mean is that even in the color picker the most grey colors still look brownish, and once I save it, it become washed out and bluish?) I wanna make a reaaaaaaally bright snapper and this makes it really hard.
