Title: Some things for you
Post by: Nexom on March 28, 2010, 12:12:29 PM

Difficult to explain the thought process that went into these beyond "what pretty thing can I make today!" These are all saved as jpg files, as I can't seem to get Blender to save as a png. For that reason, all the different versions are just links :)

An all red version (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/AllRed.jpg)
A version using red blue and purple (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/RedBluePurple.jpg)

Could be used for a title screen or a game over screen :) If you need any particular colours, lemme know. It's a piece of cake to make it any colour scheme, no matter how nauseating. (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/mental.jpg)

I can also change the "bubble" shapes a little:

From left to right: Star+Rings, Lines+Rings, Star+Lines+Rings (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Differentsettings.jpg)

Hope people can make use of these.

Cool!  I don't think you are going to be a n00b, but a newb. =D

I can't wait to see what all you can show us!

Thanks for the comment :)

I couldn't find anything decent to submit so I made something "new":

A much larger version, black background (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/netready_parchment.png)
Larger version with transparent background. (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/netready_parchment_transparentbg.png)

Parchment is always handy, right?

I say "new", but there's probably a billion different versions of parchment on this site alone...

Paper is always good especially in games - backdrops for character info skill lists - pages in a spellbook lots of ideas.

Dang, it's been a while. Paper is boring and easy to make, but yeah, there's so very many uses for the stuff. I created those after looking at a DS game that has a similar effect for the dialogue boxes and thinking to myself "I can do better than that." It turns out I can't. But I gave it a shot :happy:

Only got one version of this. Another image suitable for title or game over screens, but probably not so much for battle backgrounds like the one above. If you'd like to make your own, here is the tutorial  (http://gimp-tutorials.net/abstract-gimp-effect)that taught me how to do this. You can download the XCF for this, courtesy yours truly, right here: Whirly Vortex XCF (http://gotangents.com/downloads/WhirlyVortex.xcf) - plus this has been left at greyscale to make recolouring easier


Oh, and while I'm offering up "source" downloads:
Parchment XCF (http://gotangents.com/downloads/parchment.xcf)

I can't seem to find my bubbly lightshow thing .blend file, I'll keep looking and get it uploaded for any interested parties to examine :)

I also produced a couple of images available for you guys, but rather than bog you down more than I need to, here they are :)

Image	Additional Versions	"Source" Download	Notes
Energy Ball (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/netready_energyballofdoom.png)	Bigger Version (but lower quality) (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/netready_energyballofdoom_bigger.png)	Energy Ball XCF (http://gotangents.com/downloads/energyballofdoom.xcf)	This is another image I can do any requested colours for (not as easily as my first image, but still). Could be used as a title screen, but would be more appropriate as a game over screen, or perhaps a battle background.
Blue Circles (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Blue_Circle.png)	None - specific colour requests available :)	Blue Circle XCF (http://gotangents.com/downloads/Blue_Circle.xcf)	If you'd prefer to make your own version of this, the tutorial is here (http://gimp-tutorials.net/Cool-Circle-effect-tutorial-in-Gimp).
Orange Wallpaper Thing (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Orange_Thing.png)	Green Version (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Green_Thing.png) Blue Version (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Blue_Thing.png) Pink Version (http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a113/Kitini/Charas/Pink_Thing.png)	Orange Thing XCF (http://gotangents.com/downloads/Orange_Thing.xcf)	Tutorial for this one is here (http://gimp-tutorials.net/mac-wallpaper-tutorial). The XCF is in the 1600x1200 original size, so don't be alarmed when you open it and it's woahmg huge.

In case you're wondering, I came to share the vortex one above, noticed the 14 days warning and figured I'd sure as hell better have a butt ton of stuff to share, looked up some tutorials to help me create nifty image and went nuts. All in the hopes any of these will be of any use whatsoever to anyone.

...Yay me. *wanders off*
