Arturia Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Heya... I was wondering if anyone here likes to create there own work for example wallpapers or signatures. I have recently entered Graphical Design and like to make my own. If anyone else likes to do so, Why not post your results here, pretty sure it will be better then mine xD. Anyway For now i will post a few i have made. Any feedback regarding it is allright xD, Be it bad or good. Quote
Nosebleed Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 That's some really neat work, you have my praise~ I only use photoshop to mess around and edit random stuff, i never bothered to actually try graphical design. I don't know how to use at least 1/3 of photoshop's tools and i never really bothered to learn so i could never make something of that caliber I made my own signature though. Quote
Arturia Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Ahh i see..It kind of reminds me of my Signature..I dont have it here since it isnt working too well..I use to for MAL.. http://arturia.orgfree.com/Signature/sig.PHP Made that one awhile ago..Even before i started Learning, But i feel like this one was a Miracle xD.

Flutterz Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 I haven't done any serious Photoshop stuff in a while now so I'd be hard-pressed to find something, but like Nosebleed I made my own signature. Quote
nohman Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Ahh i see..It kind of reminds me of my Signature..I dont have it here since it isnt working too well..I use to for MAL.. http://arturia.orgfree.com/Signature/sig.PHP Made that one awhile ago..Even before i started Learning, But i feel like this one was a Miracle xD. I quite like that one. Looks nice. Quote
Zakamutt Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Hmm, graphics... let's stretch this topic a bit and post my geometrical art stuff. http://s852.photobucket.com/user/Zakamutt/library/GeoArt?sort=3&page=1 ... Yeah most people go meh at this Quote
Arturia Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Thats pretty Cool..I enjoy Symmetric designs.. Mostly because im the type of person when i want to do something it has to be perfect. Or that i feel like it has to be. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 I tend to do signatures and stuff like that a lot, since I role play in forums and use them for my characters xD I'll leave a few, mostly fan-art ones >u< Tom 1 Quote
Arturia Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Those are great Sieg..I guess I still need Practice...That and I need more Photoshop Brushes xD. When you get a Character or should I say a picture you want to use, Do you use Pen or magic tool..I kind of struggle to get a good Grip on the character so I tend to use the Pen Tool. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Thank you >o<! I use the polygonal lasso, as the pen tool is kinda annoying for me D'x Tom 1 Quote
Steve Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Well I usually just do some image cutting, layer work and some minor effects to make mine. The cutting is what ususally takes the longest as I really try to be precise on a pixel xD I did for example the signature I am using: Here is an earlier alternative version including translation as a quote from Tay xD Quote
Arturia Posted December 2, 2013 Author Posted December 2, 2013 Hmm I think it looks great.., When it comes to cutting out the character from a previous picture that you want to create, I tend to use Pen tool as for me it tends to be more accurate...THe lasso tool to me is a bit difficult as I don't have a good steady hand to lasso the picture xD. I might create something new tonight, Not sure. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Maybe you thought I was talking about this one: but I actually use the second one, which is like a pen tool but more... I don't know how to explain it. If you were talking about that one, then don't mind me xDDD @Steve: These look really cool <3 I always have problems working with small frames ToT Tom 1 Quote
Hentai Meido Sachi Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Hmmm, I have some signatures as well. I'll post a few (not like I've made a lot anyway). And of course, the original version of my current signature Quote
Arturia Posted December 3, 2013 Author Posted December 3, 2013 Wow those are pretty good Sachi...I like how each have an individual color scheme to them. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 3, 2013 Posted December 3, 2013 Amazing *o* I loved the second and the third ones! Quote
Silvachief Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 I'm really impressed guys. Unfortunately I don't have an artistic bone in my body so i've never been able to do anything like that. Were you all self-taught or did you learn somewhere? Quote
Arturia Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 I'm really impressed guys. Unfortunately I don't have an artistic bone in my body so i've never been able to do anything like that. Were you all self-taught or did you learn somewhere? In the beginning I was self taught Photoshop.. Could do basic things and my Signature I posted of Arturia was during my Self Taught face believe it or not xD... Then I got into Graphical Design course and that Follows the Basics/Advanced Structure of Photoshop/Illustrator and InDesign. As of right now im finishing my last course of InDesign.. But because of being taught I feel like I can do a lot more then I could with being self taught. Ps : Right now I can not make any other Pictures due to Work and my studying xD. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 I'm really impressed guys. Unfortunately I don't have an artistic bone in my body so i've never been able to do anything like that. Were you all self-taught or did you learn somewhere? I'm self taught too xD I watch tutorials sometimes, though, and I did a course last year (but it was so basic, and I already knew almost everything they taught me ;_; at least, about Photoshop, I learned a lot about the other programs they were teaching.) Quote
Arturia Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 Well most wouldnt know what the other Adobe Programs are so i will just state what they had.. Photoshop i am sure alot of people know and understand atleast. Illustrator: This to me is similar to Photoshop but it to me is mostly used for Vectoring.. Vectoring in its simplest form is that if you zoom into the graphic you dont lose focus and the picture stays perfect. Indesign: Like its name, Its for Designing in a way..Mostly like Layouts and Page spreads for Documents and Printing. Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 These are good, but I don't use them at all xDD the same goes for Corel Draw or Pagemaker, other two that were in the course. I used another one before Photoshop, but I forgot about it's name >_< Quote
Steve Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 So this topic inspired me to remake my bed wallpaper. Its pretty hard for me since I need to have dark wallpaper and if its too colorful I can't read the icons and such and lolis are very colorful so making loli wallpaper that is not colorful is pretty hard xD But I think I succeeded: I call it... Hoshizora no Memoria: Wish upon a Shooting Loli This is how it looks on desktop, spoiler as it doesn't fit the topic and I'm lazy to post in the desktop topic Quote
SieghartXx Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 That's really cool! I haven't done a wallpaper in ages >u< PD: I know this is off-topic but, that pso2 is Phantasy Star? 0: I wanted to play it, but I think it is in Jap, is it? :'c Quote
Arturia Posted December 5, 2013 Author Posted December 5, 2013 Haha nice picture Steve..You get the background from Hoshizora?.. Also i think it is in Jp Sieg although i have heard that there is a English Patch. Quote
