Underwater Crystals

I was looking through some of my older images on my flash drive that I’ve had for about 10 years, and I found an image that Heat Stroke sent me when I was starting to use Paint.NET. The title of the image is called Water and I used it a bit to see how he made his images. Here is the image.


I remember looking at it and thinking, “How can I make something like this? There are so many complex shapes and shading that I’m not sure if I can do this.” Little did I know that it was actually a simple program to use and that I would get better with time. Just look at my first image ever called Divided and you’ll see what I mean. I decided to use this as my stock image and I manipulated it to give to you an image called Underwater Crystals.


I did a few layer blend modes so that you can see the colors and textures through the layers. I also did Polar Inversion, Gaussian Blur, Glass Vignette, and Radial Extruder for the crystal effect. I think it turned out really well and if my high school self could see this image, they would get discouraged again too. I’m sure that I would continue trying and seeing what I can do though.
