The Gem!!

I've been busy making new art and I came across a tutoral on the Paint.NET forum and it looked awesome!!!! First before I show you the actual gem, I'll show you the picture that I started out with.


This is the Sombrero Galaxy and I decided to go ahead and use this as my starting picture since the tutorial called for an outside image! I made the gold stuff that you see without the use of a picture, but from scratch. The glossiness of the Jewel I added as well. I call this picture, Jewel!!


This was probably the hardest to make because you have to be paitent with the program, and save it. I also had to stop and look at the tutorial a lot! Then the background took a long time because I wanted it to look unique and not like everyone elses! I think that I succeeded!!! (Tutorial was provided by barbieq25 on the Paint.NET forum.)

Stone Head

Awesome artworks as always Julio! Here is something I am working on: The head was made in a program called: Sculptris, the stone texture was made in Paint.Net, and the moss was made in Photoshop (but I added it to the head in PDN). I still dont like the moss... I need to change something, and I still need to make a background. So this is still very much a WIP (work in progress), but I thought I would share it with you all.

Left Behind

Wow, I haven't posted here for a long time, and I started this blog too!!! That's sad, but oh well, never fear, here is one of my newest space scapes!! I made it for the SAC (Space Art Competition), and I got 3rd place! Not too bad for doing this for the first time!!! I really enjoyed this competition and I think that I've learned a lot from it!! Everything in the picture was made on Paint.NET except for the bigger ship. Pretty cool, and no, I didn't make the award, haha. I hope to get better and get first place on the next competition! I hope you liked the picture that I made as much as I enjoyed making it!! Feel free to comment as usual!

Fractal

We will miss you Julio! I have been working increasingly with Apophysis 7x, and this is my best attempt so far. It takes my computer for ever (about 5 hours) to render a single good quality fractal... The colors were heavily manipulated with Paint.Net.
