This one I did freestyle, no plans, that's why the second video's longer.

Holy HD video, what'd you use to record your desktop? I've been meaning to do something like that for a while now, but can't because I don't know what to use to record.

Check my second vid out:

Ya, loven the HD, but I'm on the operating system Linux so the program doesn't work for anything else, I think. Well, its called Record my desktop.

@BP let me guess, the rules of third, the flow, depth, and lighting tut, and the use of c4d's.


Awesomesauce. Now can someone tell me how do i use c4ds when they are in packs?

It is slightly disappointing to see no intention at all from anybody here to actually create their backgrounds out of nothing, not take stock from Internet or anything ...

Also nobody cares about incorporating meaning in their work either.

While it's true that using stocks requires less skill, what I think it does is help add a scene. I also agree that meaning isn't much thought of in the signature here(including me), but that's because I focus more on scene looks.

Ha, I had to dig into one of my multiple DA accounts (lol DA) to find these. Made in C4D from basic shapes like cubes, prisms, and spheres, I think.

These works are around 5 years old.. I'm amazed at how much time flies..

edit: i think the lack of "deeper meaning" or even an approach makes a lot of graphics artists have a hard time making something.

Yo, BP.

DeX, I don't get at all what you said, but those can seriously be much improved. You need, I repeat, need to change that LDD sig. use the Magic Wand tool. There was absolutely no blending, whatsoever.

It's mediocre, you need to start blends. Kai-V, just wanted to say I'm startin' that.

---

Could anyone teach me how to use C4D's? and BP how did you get PS im jealous T_T

---

DeviantArt

I can, just PM me how to properly use them.

---

I don't even now how to use C4D's or what the hell they are. Mostly because I don't care, as Kai-V said, its not your own work, which is bull. People should always making their own backgrounds, that's why I like "original" signatures better.
Other than that, I have improved my GFX skills even more(Thanx Kai-V!!), if that's possible, lol. But, in my mind I'm better than good but not great. I one my first GFX battle 24 to 0 because of default votes, nobody liked entry two. I look back at my entry in shame.

OK, you do not understand : if you are wondering what to use in a signature, stop this project right now. You should be starting signature pictures because you got an idea that you want to incarnate for a certain character, not because you were experimenting like a newbie with backgrounds and now you have a background but no idea what to put on it. Come back to your photo-editing program only when you get an inspiration from a character or from an event even and that you want to illustrate what they made blossom in you.

In your head, it should never start with the background : it always starts with the focal point/the character, and then you think of the background later, to compliment the character.

Nice effect. Linear burn perhaps?

Well, a few members ask for this tutorial so here it is:

:D for the committee

It definitely is nice, but i can tell you that it would not be hard to just noise shatter that same layer, duplicate it, linear burn it, duplicate again, then increase overall brightness. From there, put a sonic and some text and wamo.

Nice tutorial, though. I suggest you make tutorials more focused on those of creating signatures the way you do.
