Brad's FFXIII Tutorial

[Brad]

As promised, here's a tutorial to go with my latest signature. Please comment and tell me what you think.

Instead of setting it up like Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, I've divided it into sections that highlight a certain technique. Hopefully that will assist in helping you learn some new techniques for your own sigs =)

Level: Moderate-Advanced

Wow! Great tutorial! I'll be trying some of this for sure.

By the way, you made a typo in the "smudging" section- you wrote:

Deep the settings at default

instead of "Keep the settings at default" ;)


Good tutorial nonetheless.

EDIT: This is my result after trying it in GIMP:

[Blinked]

[Triket]

[Kayzee]

Your signatures are always cool. When I get back from work, I'm trying this. ;D

You know for some reason i pretty much knew how you made your entire sig just by looking =0. Other than the hellboy stock, thought that was a c4d xP.

and i thought you used afew warm photo filters somewhere along the way.

This is a great tut though Brad. You really know how to lay them out well making it readable and easy to understand. You really need to do them more because they are awesome ;].

Ill give this a go next time im going through my wave filter phase xD. I only noticed a couple of spelling mistakes aswell =P. I usualy make at least 10 xD

hey while i searched for the stock for this sig i found another one and had a sudden moment of aspiration well here is what i made with the one i found also if you could give me a good site to find c4d's i would apreciate

[Brad]

Thanks a lot guys! It's always great when you make a tutorial and you have a lot of people willing to try it out =)

And yeah, I typed the whole thing up in one go and didn't really check back for spelling errors (like I normally would, and usually do with things I type). I was probably too lazy and worried more about the layout of the damn thing ^_^

Link64, I figured you would be able to break my sig down into its components pretty well =) It's not the most complicated of sigs, yet almost all the techniques I use to make sigs are put into it. It would be interesting if you gave this a try to see your result!

well since you put it that way =P. I went with another FF stock. I got it from a stock pack i had awhile back. Not very good quality and was hard to not make it seem as if the c4ds are coming out of thin air xD.

Anyway heres my outcome. I might try again abit later with a better stock.
