You always call your stuff bad, stop it ya moron :P xD *thwack*
It's nice, big improvement on the first one you showed me ^^b
Maybe move the bottom dots a bit closer to the bottom =o GG!

I like it. Don't put yourself down, man. It looks awesome. The background's cool, you seem to like that effect alot, don't you? :D Ya, I agree with Mirae about the dot thing. Everything else is good. Oh! If it's for like, your sig, then I think it'd look better less...tall?...not as lengthy?...I don't know the word for it, reduce the height I guess would be the words for it.

Deknor
09-11-2005, 20:42
I think its too tall for a sig, but as an image in general I like it alot, but I understand why its so tall, you needed to get her body in there to make it look right...correct? Um. The dots...again as stated before move them down a bit...Other than that, throw some text on that bad boy...ERM..girl, and make it a sig :)

Müninn
09-11-2005, 21:01
Hehe, thanks guys, wasnt really meant to be a sig... But I may scale it down and make it one, was mainly just experimenting xD Now, this... is a wallpaper experiment as well xD

Pretty good. The only thing I dislike about the wallpaper is probably the font. It sticks out too much to me. Other than that I think its great! :)

Müninn
09-11-2005, 21:31
Yeah, now that I look at it, your are right. The text does stick out a bit much. So... I did a little editing, tell me if ya think this is any better^^

I actually kinda' liked it better before...:D

Deknor
10-11-2005, 00:49
I personally like it better now. But some people may like it before, neither are horrid! :) I say good job! :)

but it looks cool! you go boy! XD

Yeah, it's good. Although this is coming from a guy who couldn't make one of those to save his life lol.

Nice work anyways! :D

Thanks guys, glad you like^^ First thing I have made that I actually like xD And many thanks to Mirae for givin me tips on how to do many thing xD

it's nice... nothing more but nice. but hey, do you want me to be honest, or do you want me to be friendly...

Müninn
10-11-2005, 18:42
And this is a sig I made for Mirae... one day I might make something really good... xD

You do some really nice work. I hope to see more from you. And keep up the nice effort. ^_^

All I can say is...."^_^"...Those things rock! :D

Ooh that one is nice o.o Nice & different, gj :D

Deknor
12-11-2005, 17:31
That is pretty. I like your style. I'm not sure how to explain it, I just like the way it looks. Its fun too look at. :)

Müninn
12-11-2005, 22:07
Nother experiment with bg, the render was just there for fun xD
http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/3412/experiment22uf.jpg
EDIT- And here is something that better suits the bg xD

Pretty background. :) You really like waves :P

Raven
13-11-2005, 01:25
Great job that looks great.

Müninn
13-11-2005, 02:07
Thanks^^ And yeah, I love waves xD Don't know why, I just do >_> BUT! I'll be trying out some diff stuff here and there, so waves wont be seen as often. Bet I'll be goin back to that style though since I like it so much XD

Deknor
13-11-2005, 02:57
Take a look at my Dentiki Samurai sig in my thread. :) I can't wait to see more of your stuff man, I might take some tips from you sometime too. :)

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:04
Yeah, that Dentiki Samurai sig is nice^^ Might have to give that look a try xD And as for tips... Yeah, I just mess around and don't remember half of what I did so I'd be useless for helping people out lol XD

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:08
Most of what I do is just pixel stretch. Really basic. :)

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:13
Hehe, thats mainly what I been doing recently with other effects over it. Glad I figured out how to do that lol, makes things a bit easier when you have no clue what to do for a good bg xD

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:18
Yeah, it REALLY helps with getting colors that will work well with the sig. I usually pixel stretch and do some motion blurs...maybe a gaussian blur layer over everything thats set to some blending mode.

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:20
Yeah, I like that blur you got, I been doing splatter and splatter spray with a bit of ripple to get the last 2 sigs they way they look. And also an overlay layer with random effects I cant remember anymore lol

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:25
I'm trying to find a good tutorial to get some new ideas from, know any places?

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:27
Yup =D http://www.pixel2life.com They have tuts for just about everything. Bound to find something you are looking for there^^

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:30
Nice!! I just opened a GFX shop here on the forum, so any requests you might have feel free. If you open one, I might get a sig from you! :) Thanks for the site! I want to see more work from you!

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:35
Yeah, you do some nice work, I expect you to get a good amount of requests xD Don't know about opening up a GFX shop of my own, don't trust me skill enough to do something specific that people want yet xD But yea, thats a good site, hope it helps ya out a bit^^

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:47
Heh. I know what you mean...Some topics are going to be rough to pull off. But I'll put a great deal of thought and effort into those. Anyway, I want to know some of the things you do with your backgrounds, they're amazing.

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:52
Thanks, the results of much experimenting and many many filters lol xD I never use a brush, don't like using them >_>

Deknor
13-11-2005, 03:56
I use them, but I don't use them strongly usually. I tend to use clouds alot! :) But its really fun to put a brush overlay, adds more texture to the background I think!

Müninn
13-11-2005, 03:58
Only reason I really don't use brushes is because I can never find one I like and I never seem to get em to look right. So I just say screw it and experiment otherwise lol

Deknor
13-11-2005, 04:05
Try making a new layer, transparent background of course, and then adding the brushes then apply them with a overlay over your pixel stretch...or overlay them over a cloud background...then overlay the pixel stretch over that.

Müninn
13-11-2005, 04:08
Hmm, cool. Might have to give that a try, thanks for the tip^^

Deknor
13-11-2005, 04:09
Heh. Thats how I add texture to my backgrounds. you've got that nice spray...I wish I could do that.

Müninn
13-11-2005, 04:15
That spray is easy xD Get your pixel stretch, copy that layer set it to overlay. Go back to the original layer, Distort > ripple, set to what you like. Then Artistic > Spatter, set to what you like, the spatter spray, and once more set to what you like. Thats how I came up with mine xD

Deknor
13-11-2005, 05:23
Nice! I'll have to try that. It gets cool effects on your sigs, hopefully like that on mine :)

Müninn
13-11-2005, 19:20
This one is kinda simple, but I like the way it turned out hehe
http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/3720/experiment34kv.jpg
And... here is something else I made a bit afterwards xD

Mirae
13-11-2005, 20:21
Nice nice. But I already seen 'em but...yeah...nice nice :P

TriggerHappi:D
13-11-2005, 21:01
Muninn, I love all of your stuff, where do you get these sweet pics from? XD Your backgrounds are awesome, too.

Müninn
14-11-2005, 04:55
Hehe, thanks Trigger^^ And all those renders are from either Magna Carta or War Of Genesis. And this... is a new one I just made =D
http://img278.imageshack.us/img278/9879/experiment52te.jpg
EDIT: Decided to add yet another image =P
http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/4640/experiment65db.jpg3
Lol, what can I say, I got bored xD

Deknor
14-11-2005, 16:38
Awesome effects for the backgrounds!! As usual. Heh. Looks like your shop is doing a bit better than mine...4 views on mine, no body yet...:( Heh. Oh well! :)

Müninn
15-11-2005, 01:46
Hehe, give it time man. I'm sure some one is gonna want something from you^^
And thanks, the bg's are something I could not duplicate, because, well... I don't remember how I did most of em lol. I really need to write down what I do, because just looking over the saved files and layers really doesnt help me as much as I would hope xD
And...some more recent work xD
http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/3836/39pv.jpg
And another one..
http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/7450/redhead6or.jpg
And my attempt at something a bit different >_>
http://img336.imageshack.us/img336/9470/grung15me.jpg

Deknor
18-11-2005, 22:11
I love that middle one! Its one of my favorites that you've done, strictly because of the render, and the colors. :) I really like it! Good job.

Müninn
18-11-2005, 22:16
And... here is something with my old abstract kinda backgroud..
http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/6855/ab13jz.jpg

Deknor
18-11-2005, 22:20
Um...suggestion, try a soft light blending mode? I think its too blended...

Müninn
21-11-2005, 09:48
Some more experimenting...Needs work I know, but this was just some testing =P
http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/9844/experiment229zc.gif

Deknor
21-11-2005, 23:04
Um...Honestly, I must say thats one of the most original designs I've seen. I want you to push this, perfect it...and then teach me. :)

Müninn
22-11-2005, 07:52
Here is some more practice with that same concept. I think this one turned out a bit better ^^
http://img299.imageshack.us/img299/8678/muninn2232pp.gif
I've noticed gif images look crappy >_<

Deknor
22-11-2005, 08:19
Heh. Yeah, but I like the style still. :) I think you're getting somewhere.

Müninn
22-11-2005, 09:12
Yeah, I would love to find a way to make the image quality better, but don't know how xD And Deknor... it's a lot easier to make than you think =P Lots of image transformation, skew, perception, and the like.
