Can someone please take a fugly stick to this guy's bottom half of his face (nose and under cheekbones to chin), either nasty gash, burns from trying to drink a pot of coffee, some sort of maiming that would make wearing a half mask understandable.

Funkaphant, if i wanted to make the markings on the tail have a glow to them, how would i go about doing that? i want to keep it black but i want the black to have a bit of a brighter glow to it. Something like they are being activated or something. How can i do that in paint or photoshop?


That's a tough one, and honestly, I'm not really sure. I'm not that familiar with glows and making one in black definitely ups the difficulty. I tried a few things and the best I could come up with was using a bevel layer style to add some texture and highlight to the runes. Otherwise, there's this tutorial here psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/tutorials-eff... that might help. It's the first thing I tried, but I wasnt really happy with the results. If you want to try the bevel method, instructions are below (assuming you are using CS5, I don't have experience in any others.).

1. Select only black parts of tail
2. Create New Layer via Copy
3. Darken layer (Image>Adjustments>Hue/Saturation - adjust brightness bar to liking)
4. Add layer style (Layer>Layer Style> Bevel and Emboss - adjust settings as desired, changing direction to down and depth to 25-50% seemed to be a good start)

May not be the best or quickest method, but it was the best I could come up with. If I come up with anything better, I'll post it in here. Hope that helps.
    




Hmm ill try it...If not ill just use a white color...Thanks for all your help. Ill post it up when i finish it so you can see how it came

Wow there is some amazing work done here.

So I was wondering if someone could help me?
So I realize this picture is kind of small, but I couldn't find a big version of it.
And well I was wondering if someone would still be able to change the hair color to black?

Dude that is amazing...I like your second attempt at it, because you kept the original markings and just added a purple glow around each one as well as the whole tail. I didnt even think of doing that. It matches the purple of her trible colors and it makes perfect sense. You sir, are a great artist and you know what people are looking for. ^_^

Thanks. I've actually been using this thread to teach myself photoshop and the work on your tiefling taught me some cool new techniques. Glad you enjoyed it.
