Ok a wallpaper I made earlier today. I'm very slowly getting the hang of this but photoshopping is much easier.

Ahh, pressing refresh and waiting for news... just like the bad old days.

Liverpool porn, this.

Torres is the most overrated fuckin player I've ever seen. When he's not giving the ball away he's on his arse. How the fuck anyone can say he's worth 25 million is beyond me.

HAHA

That's brilliant that, mate. It's always fun doing caricatures because you make the rules.

Just a question: what technique do you use? I know you draw on paper then scan it, but do you scan it into PS, and is it vectored? I've yet to try vectoring. Sounds like a real pain and time consuming thing to do the more complex the image is. It's the outline I'm interested in. I've a few wee things that I want to have that same clean, even outline in like the white around Mash. I just haven't used or found the tool to do that.

Using vectors is really simple once you get going, and very useful. Try putting an image into Adobe Illustrator and trace round it using the pen tool, you'll quickly get the hang of paths etc.,

Seconded

Which spoil sport merged Kitster's thread into this one?

These are far too good to get lost in here, especially as he is trying to make a few quid as well (and worth every penny).
:D just been looking everywhere for this. ;D

CHE pretty much sums it up Import your scan into PS or Illustrator - leave the scan as the top layer - and take the opacity to 50%, and select 'Multiply' as layer style, then build up layers of vectors to make the image.
 I personally make paths in Photoshop and export them, as it seems much easier for me.
 It is a good idea to pick up a book on Illustrator (something like the Illustrator Bible) and keep it at hand - although they are both adobe - they are annoyingly different to use - and just the smallest glitch can set you back hours with no reference. But if you know pS, you will pick it up in no time i'm sure. :)

Been drawing a few concept designs for a new Liver bird. Here's the head from one of em.



That's brilliant. Would have it on my desktop in a shot but not a big enough resolution  :( (I need 1440x900 or there abouts).

Wasn't sure what to do with this, so I threw a simple background on it. I've a few other versions as well, but this one makes a decent wallpaper. Any suggestions? This isn't the hi res image BTW.



Some of this stuff is fucking breathtaking. I see some of the shite described as art these days and it's ridiculous, the fact that you can 'throw' something together that looks like this is a testament to your talents.

How about just that liverbird on a black or red background? Then, if you'd do a 1440x900 of it  ;D

That seriously looks good- I've got that other one of yours as my background now- the one with just the head. Put it in the centre of my desktop with a black background- looks really good actually.  :thumbup

Certainly. As soon as I'm done working on a few things, I'll be concentrating on designing stuff like that to sell.

The liverbird wallpapers - does anyone fancy making it into a 1200 x 800? It's fine if the image itself is as it is now, but please make it so the rest of the background would blend in with it at that resolution.

Hi mate - Just got out of Hospital today after having my cruciate ligaments reattached - so have a few things to catch up on - but will get round to it soon - will start a photoshop tutorial thread soon.
