GPoints: 2,254 Rep Power: 24 | Meh, why not. Name: Snakebite, but its really Dekotah.
Age: 16.
Which programs are you using: Photoshop CS2, i haven't needed anything else.
How long have you been doing gfx: Couple of Months.
Show At least 6 arts:
Show us atleast one tutorial made by you on this forum:
I don't think i should be making one yet.
I'd rather teach future GFX'rs how to do it well, than half assed.
Show us at least 3 requests fulfilled at this forum:
Show us at least 2 .psds of your work to ensure your not a ripper,
I have a few, even though, if i was a ripper I'd take a lot better work.
If you need .PSDs I'll gladly supply mine, i just don't deem it necessary right now.
Anything else you wanna share:
Well, i learn fairly quick.
I usually ask Nomhak or someone else whos good at GFX if I'm unsure of something.
I never refuse tips, I listen when people tell me what to do.
Like i know i have to start blending my renders in more.
But yeah, i decided why not.
I heard theres a lot more stuff for GFX, in the GFX section.
So hopefully i get accepted.  | |

GPoints: 4,066 Rep Power: 19 | I say we scrap all the gfx tream and start fresh. Let in 3/4 people on here who do it and are active, don't have to be great at it though. Really advertise this forums gfx side and try and get loads more people involved. Hold a contest that can get people who have never posted in this section before, something like: best new comers sig comp. Give the gfx team jobs while we're getting the section up, things like referring and just doing random gifts for people without them asking. | |

Off topic: Do you have a tut on how to make the backgrounds of the first two? Looks like the same technique, and it looks really awesome. | |

GPoints: 3,166 Rep Power: 20 | I would say don't use brushes, unless you're smart and make it appear there is no use of them. If you don't know how to use the pen tool, learn fast, if you don't know how to smudge, learn fast. If you don't know how to set emotions, and environments using different color schemes, patterns, etc. Learn fast.
If you think you've made something that looks good, go on to assume you didn't and try to make something better. | |

And go to the tut section, and "Sej's Tuts" or something like that.
And theres one in there. Quote:

And you,Jordan and Noodle have tought me new stuff recently.
So whats the verdict Nomhak since your the only person who can change user forum masks other than Tony.

GPoints: 4,066 Rep Power: 19 | Your latest 2 are great! Your learning very quickly.
Also the pen tool can help make great flow if you get your brush tool put it on soft white brush size 2, then go to pen tool, do your line, sqiggle or w/e to add flow, then right hand click and use stroke path use the brush option and simulate checkbox. | |

Jordan told me to use the pen tool, i didn't get it.
I've started fooling around with it though, rendering, etc.
