Hmmm ok guys this is my newest wall... Inspired from Jazz i wanted to take it slowly so here it is...
I have been working on this wall for 5 days now and it drove me to hell and back...
This all started when i wanted to make an image for my dear friend Sasha for a site that she is making... When i made the image i thought why not make a wall out of it so i started...
I took the scan of the girl that Sasha gave me and tried to extract it whit the eraser, which i did... I extracted a moon put some mist on the wall and my wall is done...
Then i wanted to see what Jazz thought of it so i gave her the image to see... She found a lot of mistakes...
First the scan was too blurry and low quality so she gave me Shintas Cleaning Tutorial and Shintas extraction tutorial. And the moon was no good so she gave me the Greg Martins Planet tutorial. OK it was back to the drawing board. That was day one...
Day two, i actually started working on the thing again and cleaned the scan with the tutorial Jazz gave me and it looked better i guess... And i also started making the planet... It was hard but once you get used to it its no problem... I did some shiney cluster magical thingys that i liked... My wall was once again finished... But to be sure i posted it on AP's Session Zero to see how do they like it and to give me some tips...
Day three, when i woke up i saw the posts everything was bad! So i went and searched for more tutorials... Then coz the scan was no good i had to edit it a lil... I found this tutorial that is really the pain: Unmei's Tracing tutorial and started working on the scan it took me the whole day to do the outline and all of the lines in the scan... Well after that it looked well enough... Then Dias recommended me to use another scan and the scan was great but i really wanted to use the one i already have...
Day four, i saw other comments and i had to remake the moon again and to work on the scan again... The scan was too blurry coz of the effects i used and the moon was too sharp and jagged so i had to make a new moon again... Dias suggested me to do some stuff with the scan so i did and it turned out well with a dreamy look... I did the moon and posted another image...
Day five... x_x OK todays the day... I looked and the dreamy theme is bad so i removed the dreamy theme and replaced it with just the gausian blur trick Dias told me... I gave up on the big moon so i made it a lot smaller than the origianl idea and it looks much better... And there you have it after remaking the scan and 4 times making a planet...
I want to thank Sasha for providing me with the scan... MysteryAngel for being supportive and making me feel better in frustrating times of making this wall... Rikimaru for his time also...
And special thanks to Jazz who had times to listen to my noobish questions and being honest and nice at the same time ^^ and providing me with tutorials that i never wanted to use coz of my pride...
And Dias who has helped a lot with this wall and teaching me some useful stuff and being supportive ^^ I gotta suck-up to him more often LOL
And most thanks to ImageShack where i uploaded four similar walls until i did the final version of this wall...
