Scale texture tutorial (Revised)

posted 13 years ago Anthro Artist | Support me with Shinies!

Hey everyone, due to popular demand (at least TWO people :-D ) I have done a revision of my original scale texture tutorial refining on the method a bit and, hopefully, being a little clearer ^..^

Hah! Stained Glass! Nice.

I would never have thought to use stained glass, that's awesome. This looks like a nice way to do a quick pass scale layer. I love it!

Also, I don't know what version of PS you're running, but in CS5 it's capped at 1500.

Nice, I clung to CS3 for a long time, because i just could not stand the interface of CS4/5. I had to make the jump after a while though, and now I couldn't go back, especially since CS5 has the ability to free rotate your canvas while working. Also, the interface actually works a little better now that I'm used to it.

I don't think SAI has filters, especially not Liquify.

thats y i said make a tutorial for sai. i know it doesnt have all that

Daniel_Kay ~danielkay

OP

Well the liquify tool is rather essential for this method, if it has a similar function it could work but otherwise no dice really, remember this is on how I make them not a "here's something everyone can do with everything" method.

it has water

Daniel_Kay ~danielkay

Does that allow you to freely deform a layer, i dont mean smudge, i mean bend, stretch, squash and bloat it.

kwratster ~kwratster

Watcher

13 years ago

no but there is free transform but that doesnt bloat it.

just never mind since i guess you dont hav it anyway

beefymac ~beefymac

This method...so simple yet...How could've it have eluded me!?

Thanks a tonne!

Daniel_Kay ~danielkay

OP

Anthro Artist

Hehe it's often like that, simple methods are easily overlooked. Sometimes you just got to toy around with stuff, I mainly found that one out by seeing someone use a similar effect but without the highlighting effects, so I toyed around with embosses and blurring eventually ending up with that

Genius! Any other tricks up your sleeve?
