Hmmm well I really can't explain it. I guess it is just being careful where you pick your 'clone source' and then just working over and over the area until it looks right. Hmmmm this is making me think about how I go about things :p
This doesn't really explain it but I uploaded a smaller version of the image with the layers intact for somone else to have a look at.

So, do you do an area and then if it doesn't look right, you re-do it?
Edit: You work on your images as a Tif and not as a psd?
Edit2: You are incredible. I never realized what could be accomplished with some brushing. I seem to make things more 'perfect' then you on a first try basis (as in, the way you made the wall), but boy do you make it look perfect later on. I am definately going to have to try using more brushes on my work. This is fantastic. I never knew what could be done like this. I do have a couple questions though. On the hole in the roof, how did you get the hole to look like it has depth, there is only 1 layer there, and it is just like 'hole on or off'. Incredible work. This definately inspires me to work better, cleaner, and with more attention to detail.
Edit3: The hole in the ground as well. Just insane the amount of detail man. I can't believe it even though I see it. The subtle cracks on the edges of it. I would just love to sit and watch you make an image, lol.
that would be really cool if someone would actually use the free captivate install to record something.Quote:

Don't worry, I'm snowed under with work and my thesis. Plus I have a cold. I'll be lucky if I find a few minutes to put something together on saturday.Quote:

I don't actually use brushes (I assume you were refering to custom brushes) at all. I work with photos of textures exclusively. Probably not the best way, but its just how I do it. The hole was made by combining a few photos of a various holes in walls/wall cross sections with the cracked texture over the top. I just merged the layers somewhere along the way.Quote:

Like I said the way I do things is pretty 'cheap and nasty' but it gets the job done I think (I've never used a mask in my life for instance) maybe one day I will learn a more efficient way :p:
Anyway... current round.
that might not be a bad idea to include in the Design Spot...Quote:

*grumble*
I have volleys from Hybrid, nepzap, devilrides. With mine, thats only 4/16 with less than a day and a half left (~37 hours)
arg, looks like I am staying up 'till 5 again tonight.
Geesh. No pressure 'eh Dri?
My opponent is already done, so i better get crackin.
I think its better if all the images are handed in at the last minute... stops any possible cheating :)
