Hi i really need help with Photoshop!!!!!!! Plz help

[manslauter]

Hi i have drawn a logo for my call of duty clan and somehow coloured it.

1. How can i draw over black lines with colour without hurting the black lines?
see the stick man picture that is attached if u dont know what i mean :sniper: :chainsaw:

2. In my logo ( the 3 impaled heads ) i have finished colouring the heads somehow.. But i do not know how to draw a background without touching the heads....

If i dont get answers to these question then theres no way i can colour anything it is just to long ( i did it with my logo and it took long )

[manslauter]

Heres some of my other art im planning to colour if il find out how to...

:trans: :hammer:

you'll need to use layers. Hit F7 to open the layer palette. Make a new layer, then drag it under the layer that is already there. Select and delete the white on the origional layer, then draw your design on the new layer. You can make a new layer under both of those to add a background colour if you wish. Hope that helps a lil

[manslauter]

[manslauter]

hey maggot u like warhammer to???? kool...but dude.. i dont have the model im suposed to make the skin for.... plus i dunno how to get the model to be in Upaint.... if i would get the models, maybe an msn transfer..... and step by step instructions on how to make the model show up in Upaint... then i would give it a try.. meet me on msn or sumtin

[_MAGGOT_]

I've been active in building a Warhammer army for about a year and two months (almost). I first saw a space marine when I found the model for UT. I though that they were just too cool looking, so I looked into Warhammer 40k, and it started at christmas that year when I got my first minis... I have a small army still, 35 marines, +1 assaul squad, +1 Emperors champion, +1 Terminator Captain, 2 Rhinos (1 old and 1 new style), 1 Predator Anhialator, 1 Vindicator, 1 Landspeeder, 1 dreadnaught, 1 attack bike, 1 assault bike, and a half-built land raider crusader. All of which are Black Templars, naturally :) lol.

heres a link to the file. I know nothing about editing UT2003 at all, so I can't help ya. srry.

http://skincity.beyondunreal.com/index.php?section=models&action=show_infos&id=275

Theres prolly a tut or a post on the board here about getting stuff into Upaint. I've played around a little in UnrealEd for both UT and UT2003, and I can get the pcx files out, but thats as far as I can really go. I may give it another go, if I can find some tutorials around here... You know of any for UT2003 skin making?

MAGGOT

[_MAGGOT_]

o yea, i forgot to ask - was the logo what you wanted?

MAGGOT

[Midnight Mick]

Easy & cheap way:
Mask your original image, invert the masked area then copy & paste as a new layer over the background & merge.

Here's a quick mockup to give you an idea (See attatched image).

I'll let you do it properly though as you will never learn otherwise. :)

[manslauter]

mask my image?? omg dude i dunno anything.... :B thank u for trying but i really do not know what to press...it makes it worse that my photoshop is in russian..

maggot: the logo is what i wanted but its really to bad u had to save it as a jpg file, thus ruining the quality, and dulling the colour... if u find something that will teach em how to get a custom model into upaint i will try my best to do it.. i wanted to make a chaos tho...

i have a piece or 2 from all the armies, of 40k, and ancient...none of ym armies are ready to play, barely any are painted, adn tis a desaster... i tried to convert many fo them.. the closest thing to an army is my 40k chaos space marines...i have 10 chaos marines ( old style marines ) and lots of Khorne marines

[Midnight Mick]

Your version of Photoshop is in russian & you cannot read it?! LOL
For a start, what is your native language then.
Also, why not try something like Paint Shop Pro then, a bit simpler but still able do everything that you will want to with it?

[Psychic_313]

Paint Shop Pro (http://www.jasc.com/) (as Mick mentioned) is shareware and fairly good, or at least it was last time I used it. The GNU Image Manipulation Program is a free open-source app, which is what I now use.

GNU Image Manipulation Program for Windows: http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/faq.html

and a free online book on using it, with examples: http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/index.html (in particular, chapters 2-4 explain everything you could possibly want to know about layers and masking)

[_MAGGOT_]

I can save as a bmp for you and zip it i spose if ya need :)

MAGGOT

[manslauter]

i speak russian...but its still confusing to find some mirror button or wtvr... i iwhs i could colour my art

[SaD]

Your version of Photoshop is in russian & you cannot read it?! LOL


:lol:

btw : And Paintshop Pro isn´t expensive .You get a really good program , if you buy it.

No Warez-talk here.I don´t think you bought a russian program and I don´t want to know where you got it from .

[manslauter]

thank u maggot that would rock...

why do u think all russian photoshops are illegal thats not true...

[manslauter]

i bought it from russia and thats where im from..i guess ur gonan hate me now becaus ei buy things from russia...

[manslauter]

maggot find a thingi that will explain how to get the space marines into my Upaint

[SaD]

i bought it from russia and thats where im from..i guess ur gonan hate me now becaus ei buy things from russia...

There is no problem buying "original" russian software.

[Psychic_313]

Sorry, I hadn't realised you were actually from Russia; since you were complaining about your copy being in Russian, it seems everyone assumed you were from somewhere English-speaking but had an illegal copy of Photoshop from Russia!

I can see that following instructions from an English copy of Photoshop would be quite difficult though, since I have no idea how terms like masking translate into Russian...

[Midnight Mick]

I believe that you can pick up Paint Shop Pro 5 for Free now on the net quite legally if that interests you?

[_MAGGOT_]

believe it or not, my photoshop AND paintshop pro are acting up, so it may take a few days to get a bmp.... they do this every once in a while

MAGGOT

[manslauter]

Midnight is Paintshop better then Photoshop??

[_MAGGOT_]

it depends on what you'r doing with them. for actually drawing and doing skins n paints, PaintShop Pro is better. Photoshop is mroe for actually editing photos, but it will work for these purposes.

MAGGOT

[manslauter]

where can i download paint shop....and maggot i really cant make u the skin unless i get insturctions on how to get it into uPaint or painthsop or sumtin...

[_MAGGOT_]

Go to www.jasc.com to download a trial of Paintshop Pro 8. To get a skin into paintshop pro, open up one in UnrealEd, then there is an export pcx button somewhere (maybe in the texture preview or sumthin, i forget) once it's exported, open it up in paintshop pro, work your magic. :) When you save, in the save-as menu, there is an options button sumwhere. click on that and make sure it isn't set to greyscale. Then you make your new files and such, and import the pcx file to the new ones :)

MAGGOT

[manslauter]

il try that...thank u... heres acrazy templar wallpaper

[_MAGGOT_]

woah, nice! I'm reading a book from the black library for my English project.. "Crusade for Armageddon" it's pretty damn good! (And I HATE reading)

MAGGOT

[Midnight Mick]

Maggot:
UT2003 does not use PCX files as a basis to create skins, that was the original UT.
UT2003 uses TGA's which can then be imported into UPaint.

Also please note that Photoshop is the "Industry standard".
All professional (Working) skinners use Photoshop or at least know how to use it to create skins.
Paint Shop Pro is just easier on the eye for some, but can be used as adequately for most Skinning purposes.

[manslauter]

Midnight are u saying i cant make him the skin then???

maggot where do u get black library books?? other then specialty games workshop stores which are like 30 minutes away from me.

[Midnight Mick]

I am just clarifying that Photoshop is not just for touching up photo's & Paint shop pro for skinning, they both do the same, just one is a little more technical than the other that's all.

With either tool you will be able to create a skin, just make sure that if you are creating one for UT2003 to do so in a TGA format, or at least convert it over to that once you arre ready to import it into UPaint.

[_MAGGOT_]

You can get the books from many bookstores... I'm not sure about any specific stores in Russia though

[manslauter]

lol im in canada..... :lol: although russia is the greatest country ever, you have to go to army..which i dont want.... im downloading the space marines now...i will tell u if it works in next post.

[manslauter]

ok i dont have unrealEd .....can i get it somewhere..i do not want to insatll the whole game... is there inother way to get the marine sinto Upaint???

[manslauter]

heres a vampire i did, it took me 5 minutes.

could u plz do the whole importing into Upaint thingie...i would actualy prefer Photoshop because i will be able to do much more with it... Then email it to me... in photoshop will i be able to see the model beside the textures like u can in Upaint???

[_MAGGOT_]

photoshop is just an image proggy, so you wont be able to see the model, you'll need to go back and forth.

I thought u were in Russia, my bad. (man i hate that phrase. lol) You can get them from chapters book stores, thats where i got mine :) lol
