thnx so much i love em....did u get ur job u applied for or had an interview for i forgot now?

Xeno

unfortunately no. every place i've sent an application to hasn't contacted me and the one job i was hoping to hear about the most (to work in the county crime lab) i just learned that unless i have 'inside resources' (i.e. you already work for the sherriff's dept, fbi, etc.) there is a 99% chance you won't even be considered.

so... i'm pretty bummed about that. but i'm glad you like the flames

that sux....i hope u get one of the jobs u've put in for....and the flames are awesome i still cant decide if i want em though

Come on Xeno, you keep getting better dont you? Now how do you do THAT?

Xeno

its a s-e-c-r-e-t.....


not really


(in order) i took a pic of some flames, then copied/layered it in to fill in what i needed, then used the eraser at about 30-40% opacity (or whatever it's called) to 'fade out' the 'tops of the flames, then changed the 'master' opacity for the flame layer (after i merged them together, keeping the car a separate layer), then selected the areas that would be 'open' on the car (grille, lights, etc) and deleted the flames from those sections, then, finally, used the hue/saturation tool to change the color of the flames.


wow... i used 'then' a lot :P

oh, and 1999, if i were painting the flames on my car, i would have the bumper be a solid color, then gradually go into the flames maybe at the top of it and onto the hood. the solid color on the bottom would look better, imo
