Hey all, Rainy here with a freindly note. I am temporarily stopping my graphics making and all requests because school has caught up with me and I don't have time to do everything. :( But I promise I will have ALL requests done by the 3rd of November. Thank you SO much for being patient! <3

Okay, I'm back at it! I decided to go ahead and do link's sister's sig and then get on Storm's wallpaper. So here it is!

It's done! I didn't know if you wanted just the plain picture or something a little jazzed up so I have both. ;)

I eagerly await mine, but I have a modification. No Tael, but a dark red fairy. here:image.jpg. If you can put that in, thats awesome. And in the background in red letters behind the "DarkLink7" is "Shade". She's my rp character

Okadoke DL7. ;)

So, link's sister asked me to do a tutorial on how I do what I do. So here it is!

First off I start off with a blank image with a 400x150 size. Then I bucket a color that will look close to what I'm getting at.

NewTut.png


Then I paste in all my C4Ds that will look pretty with my sig. I usually use three. And also, I ALWAYS pick a new layer for everything I add.

NewTut1.png


Next I'll move the layers around until the C4Ds are in the right stacking order.

NewTut2.png


Then I'll move them around until they fit where I want them.

NewTut3.png


Then I go to Colors, then Colorize and play with it until the color suits my taste. I also invisiblize the other layers so I can see. :3

NewTut4.png


NewTut5.png


Then I pop in my render! In this case I use Serge from Chrono Cross. And I move him to where I see fit.

NewTut6.png


Then I can play around with the layers to jazz 'em up. I pick each layer for something different. I always start with the bottom then up. And for this I hide the top layers to see. :3

NewTut8.png


NewTut9.png


NewTut10.png


Then I say, "That render looks dull." So I play with that as well.

NewTut11.png


Then I say, "It needs more." And some of my style is I take the render, enlarge it and put it in again. Mostly I take a different render and slap it in. But you do whatever speaks to you. ;) I also blend it in to make it look better.

NewTut12.png


Then I add the text. This makes it look so beautiful. <3

NewTut13.png


Now considering you can't read it I go to the Filters, then Light And Shadow, then Drop Shadow, and well, drop a shadow. I pick white because the text is black. I suggest not playing with "Allow Resizing" because that'll ruin it. Just un-check it and leave it alone.

NewTut15.png


NewTut16.png


And finally, it is %90 done. I first save it as my png and xcf (xcf to keep the layers, png to keep it not pixilized). When you save, click Save, then title it and save it where you want it. Then click Export (for png only) and make sure to keep all of these checked.

NewTut17.png


Finally the last touch. I first close evrything up and re-open the png file. Then I add a border to make it look neat. I go to Filters, Decor then Add Border. And you play with it all.

NewTut18.png


NewTut19.png


Then I save it once more, and tada! It is finished!

The tutorial is really awesome. The only thing that throws me off, is that it has was it has too much C4D effect. Maybe use a little maybe... Overall it looks very amazing. Great job, Raindrop.

To add you save the pic to your ipad, computer whatever it is. Then type in
and in the center there, type in where the picture is being hosted. Which means you'll have to upload it to photobucket, comcast (if you use it) or whatever works. Example of mine:

url]


I use Comcast. (the spaces are there so you can see. Don't put spaces when you put it in your sig. :bleh:)
