Hey, can someone render this stock for me?

Spoiler:

 

[Pikabloo]

I'm sure that there's a rendered version of that image somewhere already, since I used it in my spatter banner a long while ago. I'll try looking for it, if I can find it.

Anyway, I feel like making a tutorial, but I'm struggling to decide which banner it should be for. And, er, I'll need some help in choosing ^^:
I'll put everything in a spoiler o.o

Spoiler:

1. Mainly used filters (including displacement), spatter clipping masks, colour blending.

2. Displacement filters, effect C4Ds, colour blending.

3. Not too keen on this one. It'll probably teach the same stuff as in the Roxas tutorial I made. Smuuuudging.

4. lawls, lots of people liked this, but I thought that the style was too specific to the stock I used. But whatever. Mainly about applying other stocks to the banner and some smudging.

5. Effect C4Ds and colour blending, I believe.

6. Spatter clipping masks, displacement filters, colour blending, and C4Ds.

Or if you want me to make a tutorial on any other banner you've seen me post up, just tell me what it is, and I'll think about it.

This is, of course, after I make that smudge tutorial. If people still want it o.o

 

[Renyui!]

Ooo! Ooo! Pick me Shira-chan!
i pick number two, cause it looks quite cool and would be helpful for people( like me! )
btw i used your splatter tut and my outcome is in my sig :3

 

[evilcheese]

@shirauni - make a tutorial for all of them. for me id pick number 4 the blending is very nice. how about the naruto one?

@poke'd - they have a rendered version at planetrenders. O.o

 

[Pikabloo]

Ahah. I might eventually make a tutorial for all of them. Who knows. But maybe I'll just start off with one, for now.

ooh. I knew I was forgetting something xD Yeah. I'll add that to the list. I'm assuming that you're talking about the rasengan one? o.o

 

[Loki]

Beesho's Qweshtun uv deh dae: In which smudge banners, would you be able to tell us the settings you used? xD; Cause it's hard for me to follow a smudge tutorial if I don't know the settings, like on your Roxas one. *Shot'd*

But that aside, I like the Naruto and Gintama and KH secret ending II ones the most.... So yeah. xD

 

[THIRTY-SIX]

Pikabloo if you are making tutorials … then 1, 4 and 6… also the Gintoki one you made a while back…

 

[Pikabloo]

None, actually o_______O

I stick to the same smudge settings for all my smudge banners -shot'd- And the sad thing is that they're someone else's smudge settings. And apparently, I'm not allowed to distribute it. I would just link to it from here, but it's in a forum, and you'd have to log on. Aah. I'll attempt to give a brief description of it in the tutorial, though. I'm pretty sure I can at least show which brush I used o___o

Oh, and what Gintama? The vector one? o.o

lawls. Thanks for the input ^^

BTW, this/these tutorial(s) will probably be done sometime in June. I'll probably end up doing at least half of them >.>

 

[THIRTY-SIX]

No… the one the vector one is base on…this. Well for me at least xD
Oh is it the smudge settings by DarkWolf?

 

[Pikabloo]

Oh, so the non-vector one? Hah, that'll be a pretty short tutorial xD

The smudge settings are by... NoiseLess. I think that's his username. In PlanetRenders.

 

[THIRTY-SIX]

I like short tutorials… since I rea them an never actually follow them xD I use steps from tutorials here and there xD. An I'm not a PR guy so OK xD

 

[Pikabloo]

I could tell you how to make that banner in less than a paragraph o.o

I just took one of the Gintoki renders, and used the cool pattern on his sleeve as the background. Added a smaller version of the render, some colour blending layers, the white line stuff, and tada~

 

[THIRTY-SIX]

Lol I see that now xD Nice grainy texture though =D •steals as gift•

 

[Pikabloo]

er... alright, then o.o

Ah, and I'm about halfway through the Naruto tutorial. I got bored enough to start making it... so maybe expect it later today.

 

[Gummy]

I have a question but since it doesn't really involve PS, I can't post in in the Q&A thread.

What's the difference between an effect C4D and a normal C4D?

 

[evilcheese]

well c4d refers to all c4ds effect, wireframe, render, effect c4d applies affects.

 

[Gummy]

Sorry, I still don't get it. Take a look at this tutorial. It says what blending mode to use for each type of C4D, but I want to know how to tell a normal one from an effect one just by looking at it.

 

[Loki]

I would say that effect c4d's are much smaller, and just give the banner a little 'effect'. Like... Here, look:

kind-of-big-images-in-spoilers

Spoiler:

Effect c4d^

Regular c4d^

Does that help at all? D:

edit: Oh, I just looked at the tutorial. Basically, I see effect c4d's as less 'solid' than other c4ds, more transparent colors and shiny things, yeah? Hopefully that helped a little... xD; I wouldn't know 100% if that's the exact definition of an effect c4d though, so y'might want to wait for someone else who uses c4ds more often and is better at explaining to pass by.

 

[Motsuko Live]

So where does everyone get their C4D's from?
I use Planet Renders, but I'm starting to run out now.

Any suggestions?

 

[Loki]

I get 'em from planet renders and photobucket, but I re-use my c4d's, so running out is kind of more like, 'when do I start recycling'. xD;
