Most of you know from time to time I like to give my TT a new look.
With the help from a Non-skinner,
I was able to do this.
If he/she wishes to post as the artist I will comfirm it.
For now I will leave his/her name out of this,
so they are not bombed from hell with request !

I don't have your email and you have none in your profile, so if you shoot me a email, I will send you what you want and instructions B)

 

Thursday, February 02, 2006 at 2:51:56 AM

Ok! XD

Thursday, February 02, 2006 at 4:59:12 AM

OK I will come clean, it was me who made the screens for Lonewolf and I am pleased you all like them XD

I really enjoyed doing the project and giving the Wolf a surprise present to personalise his TT, which can now be decscribe and wolfmaxed................ :P

I wanted to start using Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator so this was an ideal project to start learning and get a feel for the programmes and what they can do. The main reason for wanting to learn these programmes is not to create tank skins (I'm just not artistic enough for that - I will leave that to the professionals) but so that I can start creating terrains, skys and textures as well as reskinning objects for my MODS. I am also trying to teach myself how to use Blender, which in case you dont know is a 3D creation programme, again I want to use Blender to make new objects such as trees, rocks, buildings etc for my MODS. I have already played around with another 3D programme callled Milkshake and made a few objects including the Bridge iwhich you can see in my new Battle Bridge MOD. I found it really interesting so decided to tackle Blender which is a whole new sport altogether!!!!

So a big shout to Lonewolf for sending me on this journey, and I'm glad you like the work I done for you ;)

Regards

Daz, Those are very nice images. There is no better program to work with than Photoshop, I've been using it since the 80's and the depth of that program is truely amazing.
Anyone remember Photoshop 3?

Great work.

Yeah Nap I am discovering that!!!! Got a long way to go though with PS and Illustrator am using the cs versions of both and the stuff you can do is endless....... No wonder some of the tank skins made by the top skinners are so awesome.

If you've been using PS that long you must be somewhat of an expert by now!! In the 80's all I had was one of these MY FIRST COMP and still got it with the 5 1/4 floppy disk drive lol......

Hehe...
I'm still a-wonderin' how you do those transparent overlays. Maybe it only comes in full Photoshop...

Thursday, February 02, 2006 at 1:03:04 PM

^ Go The Star Wars Theme nice #1

Monica what I did was this. First I cut away all the stuff I did'nt need from the original TT jpg's creating a template, then using photoshot created new boxes, text etc in new layers over the top of the originals, finally I deleted the template and hey presto :)

Get the photoshop templates I used from the download section of MY WEBSITE

Make sure you post screenies up in this thread of the ones you created some masterpeices.

Hmm, well, one for the scrummers out there:

Could use some work, but I figured out how to do the transparency thing.

Thursday, February 02, 2006 at 3:07:43 PM

Tanx's LONE for the instruction's on how and where to put the background's I was asking for. Also the pic's, but I wish the font's were black.

If anyone would like some custome screen similar to the ones I made for Lonewolf post here. All I need is you background picture of choice and what screen you want them for, i.e. Load Player, Tank Selection and Join Game.

What really set these araprt from others is when you have several elemets working together. Not just taking to images and blending them together. That works for some screens and is a nice effect but, making new boxes as stated above, adding colors, deeper blends and drop shadows will add depth. Other things like ghosting back all of the images like 50% where the server list is so it's easier to read.

All of those things will make your work stand out from the rest.

Good job, they all look great.

We'll have to see what we can come up with next!!

Saturday, February 04, 2006 at 2:58:32 PM

Heheheh where do you put the files?

Pray to GOD for him to reveal himself to you.

Tuesday, February 07, 2006 at 2:17:39 PM

All the files go into game/client/ui/backgrounds.
Except for the one called back ground,
that one goes game/client/ui

I will be posting some more skins for all by the end of the week.
I am teaching myself how to use Photoshop CS with the help from DrSawBones & Dazzle.
I hope to put out 2 sets by weeks end.
1 called," Dragons" & a called, "Skulls"

For those of you wondering, will he become a skinner ?
The answer is no.
I will from time to time put out a few Join Game skin sets though B)

 

Tuesday, February 07, 2006 at 6:49:41 PM

I have one with screen shots of my fractal tank.

And bevel emboss stuff too

Pray to GOD for him to reveal himself to you.
