Curtain Experiments:Adding shininess


WB suggested I
experiment with layer
effects so this
experiment I drew
in white lines over
the curtains.
Using layer effects
like Normal, Color Dodge,
Hard Mix and various
others with different
degree of transparency
to see what would happen.
Some of the curtains
appeared more like the shiny silk drapes I was going for then others.
Some of the curtains I need to add darker tones to highlight the curtain ties.
WB took a photo of the earlier yesterday texture experiments in WL.
Not to self link WB's flicker stream to here.

Diary of Creating stuff: TSO, Sims, Curtain Experiments


My boyfriend suggest I write down the steps for the things I make
so I can go back later but I often don't.
So here is attempt to explain. I hope to do more of this here.
I am no pro, I am just stumbler who likes creating.
I do layers often I experiment with darker gradients using Desolve
then on another layer in lighter tone I draw out the lines and
on following layers continue to do similar shading.
I tried to use a texture today from older texture experiment I had
tried but only some of it showed up.
One was flower pattern I had done months and the other was
pink wrinkled texture that I end up having to use smudge tool
I used to create some type of pattern that fit with the wrinkles.
The pattern I will post later for anyone to use.
I am contemplating rezzing FD Spark in TSO for little bit.
Years ago the sims was how I got started making art and creating.
I use to do custom builds for people in TSO.
The building tools are very simple there and often I felt very
limit in what I could do there.
TSO was sort of my first introduction to online worlds like SL but
I left do to burn out.
Footnote; I made FD Spark TSO account in frustration uninstalled
everything after five tries due to fact I couldn't get anything
to update right.
No thanks not interested in paying to be beta tester so I can
try to figure out how to bitmap chairs and few paintings
for a few simeoleans.
And my original account and cd is no more and I cannot retrieve it
because I gave it away the account threw the cd a way.
