I was doing some tutorials and then decided to put together all the effects I learnt in them with a few touches of my own and came up with this. Impressions please… D :beam: P.S. Sorry about the iffy quality but i wanted to be able to post it… ---

Thanks… the tuts came from the links in the sticky (one on lightning another on starburst which i modified with a couple other filters and the crystal is a 3dmax tut). Sheesh I guess i didn’t put any sig on it cause I don’t steal other people’s stuff (it just makes me feel like an idiot and therefore would prefer to learn how to do things myself) and I also didn’t think it was that good… Thanks again… Any suggestions for improvement? D :beam: ---

Ah yes, the good old spike ball. I’m pretty sure everyone that has played with a 3D program has made one of these things. I know I’ve made a few dozen of these. I would suggest playing with the colors and I also think you over did it with the photoshop too. ---

hmm, i wouldn’t say it was over done with the photoshop. Perhaps its a little bright though. Try dulling it a little, see what that looks like? ---

I still think the blur effect is overdone, but then again that’s just me…what do I know? 😛 ---

um…sorry to destroy your delusions, but those smilies aint mine! I found them whilst browsing the web… sorry! (curse my honesty!) I think EG is refering to blue streaming effect on the right of the image. A bit too intence i think. ---

maybe if you could apply the orange swirl to the spike ball? looks cool, but the photoshop effects are throwing it off ---

i like the spike ball in the middle, but it doesnt really blend in with the colors. try messing around with a couple of filters and see what you come up with 😉 ---
