Rapid's Nebula Brushing Tutorial per request is up!

(Edit- Spelling errors, I hope )

(Edit2-) When brushing a nebula you can variate numbers of layres you work on. In the end you can play aroudn with different blending modes for effects besides the brushing, a good starter tip to get going)

Well, straight after reading your tutorial i decided to try it. And came up with this [link] . So i dont just like it, i love it

. It helped me organize my workflow. And some of your other deviations are a big inspiration for my own ideas

Hey,
Love the outcome; I also love all of your other tutorials; you write them very differently than most - and I'm not referring to the spelling [you may create whole new words, but in the end, it all makes sense - except for this one bit..........that I'm writing to you about].
The image you have under step 2 [with the four colour swatches on the left'....."I've chosen to go with the lookof a gradient and make this a rather full-image nebula-isch piece."..................
I know it's the base for the actual work; but that's the bit I can't seem to create [it's probably quite simple but I just don't get it].
Could you please enlighten me?....................
Thanks for all your generous sharing............................................

*ladyrapid Mar 26, 2012 Professional Interface Designer

You basically need to create a soft "gradient looking" base to continue brushing at. Everything should be warm 'n soft and don't have hard edges etc, those we'd like to brush out in a later state to get detail and depth. Hopefully this gives you something, was a long time ago it was written

~Erwin0265 Mar 27, 2012

Thanks,
I managed to work it out and basically copied your piece [roughly].
I just thought that you used the gradient tool to achieve the base but realised what you meant later [when I thought to myself, "Stuff it, I'll just paint the base." - which is pretty much what you did anyway].
Thanks for responding.
I'm not yet up to the uploading stage - the work isn't good enough for that [although there are many at DA who aren't so fussy and upload anything].
I'm currently playing with Terragen 2; lots of space potential there.
Cheers
Erwin

*Kneeling-Glory May 15, 2012 65 comments

In fact, many of them produce great art and have fun personalities just like you and me! Here's what we found out:Staffers:iconmoo nbeam1...
