i have trouble following this tut ... its not on the graphics tut section anymore so ....yeah-- it looks reeallleyyeahh good but i cannot seem to get past the first 3 steps... lmao ! can anyone complete this tut ? and show me how step 1 before adding the mosaic filter is supposed to look ? thx ! im not so sure how to show it bigger lmao.... i saved the file to my desktop and its fine there but when i upload it and put it here using the IMG tags it looks rerlerieslallyy small.....
Well, on step two you create a new layer and you used a soft rounded brush to add some lines to this layer. Then go to filter < pixelate < mosaic and play around with the cell size untill you get something you like. Another filter that gives a similar type of effects is filter < texture < patchwork. That also gives a bit of a mosaic look.
hey sanity --- have you tried doing the tut.... then i do it it seems than when i pixelate it looks nothing like the outcome here ----- and i dunno what the brush size should be .... could i see your soft brushing for step one before you pixelated ?
you have to hide the blackground layer click on the eye on the left side of the layer then make a new layer and brush with a soft brush some lines on it an then you have to use the filter. and then you should get something like the tut. if you still don't get a good outcome just mail me @ gr and i will help you.
seems pretty plain to me that whoever made the tut skipped the obvious wave filter usage AFTER the pixelize.
Well, I've tried it and your right, the mosaic effect doesn't quite look like this. Also Pepsi is right, after you've made the brush strokes, go to filter < distort < wave first. Then you'll get those curvy lines. Have you tried pm'ing the author of this tut?
yeah but deadalus isn't responding --- i will try messaging him again ---- thx for all the help guys !
