If you also include a tutorial on how to pixel sequins, no xD
|
Good idea. Found one for glitter which is close enough. Might actually try experimenting with it later.
|
Just not... with crocs...
|
HOW DO YOU KNOW MY MIND? But that should be a suggested item.
Why aren't you sleeping? |
I misread that initially as "sequined clogs".
...Come to think of it, I don't think we have clogs. |
I was a bad egg and slept really late D:
ahhh I thought the beer DI had clogs but no!! How come!! |
Crocs are inspired by a clog design anyway, so close enough.
Naughty mdom! |
I see myself sleeping all afternoon though
|
Just disable sleep mode.
Sequin pants? I need to figure out how to make them more sparkly. |
Random pixels of white? Or maybe white + signs?
|
Ah, that metallic sheen!
Good texture anyway |
I tried a few different things but it's not working out very well. But I don't know what I'm doing either.
|
I wonder... perhaps a bokeh effect overlay?
|
my go-to when i need scattered texture patterns and i'm not getting the results i want is to make a layer of noise
layer of noise, went in and selected swatches of pixels to delete (selected at about 10% so i wasn't doing shades individually) until i was left with a scatter i was happy with, painted it all white, then set to overlay |
Huh. That’s interesting. And cool.
|
that's the basis i use for several textures in my personal art
noise + motion/radial blur at long stroke settings is my go-to for baseline wood grain, too. obv adjusted as needed for differing levels of contrast and CURVITUDE |
What about burls and stuff?
|
the process differs depending on the intended effect. the baseline version is good when i just need a gentle texture for, say, smooth, high quality lumber derived furniture. if it needs a lot of intimate details like knots and things, i go for a shorter stroke and use it as a guideline for making my own lines, so a level of randomness that i can't get on my own is still there.
an example where the quick method is adequate: doesn't need the details you're talking about because it's an already subtly grained wood that's been well refined into its current state |
Hmm, okay. That’s pretty cool.
|
So sequins aren't impossible!! *____*
|
...Oh no :|
|
You know you want rainbow sequins
|
I’d be amused to see them pixeled, but I’d never wear it.
|
Never say never!
What if it's an... avatar contest or something. Or a 'dress like mdom' day |
...Those are exceptions.
|
I'm sure you'd look fabulous, dahling
|
...-fidgets uncomfortably-
|
the winter is coming
except it's full of sequins |
That’d ruin winter for me :|
|
Imagine if snowflakes were sparklier!
|
Snow is already mostly white, so by “sparklierâ€, do you mean, actually reflect light, or... are light-emitting...?
|
Like sequins xD Falling from the sky.
|
white =/= sparkly
being sparklier in this case would probably involve different forms of reflectivity, in the vein that diamonds reflect in a combination of ways, not only one. |
...as if snow didn’t give enough sunburns already.

Snow gives sunburn?? Why D:
Snow I want to love you don't do this |
Quote:
paint to desired color (white is good for sparkles), adjust opacity/layer effects as needed, and done mdom: the high reflectivity of snow means that when you're out, you get them sun rays just like it's a clear summer day. sunscreen is needed year round to the vulnerable, and highly recommended for everyone. |
Also, due to the angle at which snow generally reflects light, you can get sunburns in places you usually don’t get sunburns at.
|
like up under your nose holes
|
...I was going to say, your chin and neck.
