package scan? you must be plain-stupid... *sigh*

sorry if I offended you (which I seem to do too much )
but it's true. To backup my flame I scanned it myself (yup, I do own Usas) and started fittling around in PS7 a bit and came up with a decent picture in less than 10 minutes.

But I threw it away with the thought I would make more enemies that way.
So, I won't show it.

Nice picture, but to me it's no real art anyway. sorry for that. Must be true; I am plain-stupid for the lack of art-apreciation or anything like that. whooahhhahaaaaaa (evil grin)

Hmmm, I see yer point of view... but to me it's more than "just a scan". I spent two hours erasing, doin' color correction and restyling the word USAS (cause the graphics on the original scan sucked). Then I added the finishing touches (bg, Japanese text, Konami logo). Okay, maybe it's a bit simple. But it works, doesn't it?
Check out www.dzine.be/private/adol/vixen.jpg
The only thing scanned here is the vixen. The space backdrop was done in PS from scratch. It stills lacks some finishing touches, though...

I don't consider these images as wallpapers. I see them as art, in the form of wallpapers.
Currenty, I'm working on this really original piece (right, Mace?). I'll keep you posted!

oh, well. I'm just that way... stupid.
nah, I like the Usas picture and the Vixen pict is cool too (making planets with PS rules) but to me it's just a simple scan with some re arrangements. still LOOKS cool though.

The erase part can be a tricky thing.. spending way too much time erasing the right parts. But if you get the hang of some need PS tricks, there can be done a lot without damaging the original. Take the magic wand for example.. get a HIGH treshold and you'll be amazed.
Or the background eraser, same trick and viola. next up: ZOOM and Erase by hand.. sight.

But pleeeeeez continue your graphic efforts, I like them anyway!
