What is the trick of creating metallic looking colors, such as chrome and polished bronze. Is it a task of changing variants of shade and blending or is there a palette that includes these?
Nice samples!!
I was referring more to the reflective effect like you show, hence any image with the metallic look won't look "flat" and actually have a dimesion quality to it. As I had indicated, I had come up with a work-around to the effect I was hoping to get, because the metallic look wouldn't actually work for what I wanted. I didn't want the flat single color so I blended a small white circle with a 10% gradient of black (so really light gray then) and offset the center circle and gave it 100 steps. Just what the doctor ordered.
By the way, when I think blue, it ususally is cobalt.
Graewerld, wondering if you tried a radial fill?
Seems to be a lot quicker than going through all the steps to make a blend, no?
OOOOHHHHHH!!!!
*drools all over the keyboard*
That's exactly what I want!
can you tell me of a good way to take a Head out of a photo that the background is all onother color???
Open the image in Photopaint and use the CutOut Lab.
There is a Video Tutorial that came with the Boxed Version of CGSX4.
