Is the animated GIF possible in GIMP?
I wouldn't mind making a string of my favs.i will never understand why some people insist on inconveniencing others and waiting for someone to respond instead of putting in 30 seconds of work and googling the answer to their question

is LiWar on??

Check little little thing next to yellow button under your avatar. The yellow one is the "bad post" button, while the one next to it is red if the person is offline, and green if they are online.

And 1183, I think M@RS uses Photoshop. I'm the GIMP guy. ANd it just takes practice. And people take you more seriously if you take the time to actually spell out your words.

*Presses little yellow button for spammer.*

Ok what Ops ranger mean by chat is PM (private message)
And you post pics by clicking on the picture in the album, then copying all the text in the box under "BB Code' and then you paste that text in the message box.

Now back lets get on topic

You can't legally "download" photoshop, and GIMP is FREE to download at gimp.org.

Like the colors covering Sev, they look a little pasty. If you're using an airbrush or bursh effect, use about 60-75% transparency to make it look like paint, rather than photoshopped. Also, for the visor, use the hue/saturation to make it look better. Sorry I wasn't specific enough. :xp:

I was kind of going for the glowing exterior look to Sev but I guess I can turn it down, thank you for the help. And here is the update: http://www.lucasforums.com/picture.php?albumid=166&pictureid=1478)

And I know Sev looks weir and it is because my little brother wanted someone based off of Sev with a blue right arm and leg and just whatever I wanted to do, so it looks diffrent then my other works but oh well(I am adding more in later as well).

you might be able to download (and buy) photoshop from the adobe site, although ordering a cd/dvd is probably better. but gimp is free, the link is on the ccp site (click my sig)

nice work black-ops and rc-1183. I'll add the pics to the site when i get the chance.

As for me, i'm going to be unable to make these until atleast tomorrow (fingers crossed) but my laptop doesn't even have windows on it right now. Dell couldn't fix the problem, but I'm not going to worry about it anymore for now.

Photoshop has a free trial available at its Adobe website here (http://tryit.adobe.com/us/cs3/photoshop/?sdid=CKENF). Do not discuss illegal downloads of this program here.

5.)Blue visor, smeared blood every where especially on the helmet, the Mythosaur Skull where it is on taccled's (keep red), Grey Around visor (except for blood smears( and Y shaped piece on Chest, and grey on upper arms, black on lower arms. Black upper chest, grey lower chest (like your's). Black feet grey legs and black strip down middle of upper leg, like on Phoenix. batter him up with scrapes and bullet marks.

No offense, but you can tell it's a paint over in some areas. Kinda ruins it for me. The helmet on main is good, but it just doesn't meld. If you get what I mean.

That's not spam kid, that's criticism. You're going to need to learn how to take it if you're going to do editing, it's just a fact of life.

This thread however is on the verge of closing if people don't stick to simply the Custom Commando's. If you have questions for someone, take it to a PM. This is a showcase thread and requests.

I like it!! Okay here is what I think you need to do:
1. The visor on the guy in the middle should have that red/orange/yellow bevel effect on the whole visor
2. NOTHING!! I think it is great!
Oh you are doing a good job teaching your brother.

Black-ops the only thing(s) I think you should do are: make the visor one color; use the lasso tool better so the visor looks more like a whole; make the visor a brown to black gradient (fades from the brown to black).
