Signature request!

Unread post by Xcturnus »

Hi i would like to request a signature of that has my hunter in it, "Armory link here" http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/d ... nus/simple


I would like my pet Terrorpene in the signature too, he is called "Bowser"

I would love a flame based background very fire intensive.


With the Caption "Xcturnus and Bowser from hell and back, together forever"


So anyone with photoshop experience please help me :)
I'd do it myself except i have no idea how to do it :(

Screenshot included is to give an idea of the flame style :)


Thanks in advance

rob

I'd be willing to give it a shot if you don't mind waiting until I get off work at 10PM PST.

Forgot to ask; what size and do you want your hunter wearing the gear shown on your armory, or would you like her in a specific set?

The maximum allowed for this site i believe is 300x800 :) that would be nice, Plus yes her current armor on the armory would be awsome.


with my pet terrorpene "Bowser" with the caption mentioned if possible with a flame styled background. :)




Thanks

I'm not a dude, but you're welcome. =P

Only one problem I've encountered so far; WMV doesn't seem to like the new armory links, so I manually plugged in all your gear onto a blood elf model, but the gear that I plugged in, looks different than what shows for me on your armory.

For example, you have a gun equipped, but what I see on your armory page is a bow. XD I'll whip up the set in WMV and show you as I'm not sure whether it's a difference between US and EU.

Can do, just want to confirm the armor real quick.

The attachment is a blood elf I created that's as close to the one in your armory as I can tell. Feel free to correct anything that looks wrong as I see the armor looking totally different on your armory.

That took a bit longer than expected because it was something new for me to do a flaming background like that, but I enjoyed the challenge and hope you like the outcome.

I saved the open PSD file as well in case there's anything you want me to change.

You're quite welcome; I had a lot of fun doing that. ^_^
I'm glad you like it. :hug:

Upload the image to somewhere like Photobucket then go to your User Control Panel here, click Profile, then go to Edit Signature, Paste in the image link from Photobucket (or your hosting place of choice), and then add image tags around it.

Well, in order to get nice, clean looking models, I use a handy tutorial from MMO-Champ:
http://www.mmo-champion.com/threads/733 ... ost8323649

I just use the section of the above tutorial about WMV and Photoshop, everything else I do on my own. I have hundreds of different fonts installed on my computer and quite a few different Photoshop brushes as well. XD

Anyway, to do your sig, it took me forever to figure out how to get flames like what you wanted. What I ended up doing was saving your screenshot to my computer and loading it in Photoshop. I turned it from a background into a usable layer and used the lasso tool to chop up different pieces of fire and load them in a separate image. The challenging part was getting them to piece together and blend to look as much like one cohesive flame as possible. I started off merging each flame piece one layer at a time and using the blur and spot healing tools so there aren't visible lines. When I did that for each flame, I merged the entire thing together and saved it as an image that I then loaded into your signature image file in Photoshop.

I placed and resized the models until they fit into the image and looked proportionate, and then I copied the text you wanted over and picked a font I thought looked suiting. ^_^
