This tut isn't too specific so I suggest you have some basic knowledge.

Liek sohw me teh 1337 outcomes kthx...

Also, remember to be artistic these things are not written in cement. They are written digitally so you can bend the rules to your liking. Good luck!



Here are the links to the C4D's used:

Metallic: http://www.planetrenders.net/renders/displayimage.php?pos=-1090
Light: http://www.planetrenders.net/renders/displayimage.php?pos=-16821
I only used 2 c4ds in all. These two should do fine after some soft erasing or layer transformation if need be.

Sick! Thx a lot man...nice detail

I love the result. Do you think you think you could post the Metalic C4D you used?

I'll post them all by tommorow. A bit busy with sigs, but I will for sure eventually.

Okay Thanks.

Not sure how Servant Assassin translates as a ninja. =P Yeah, yeah, I'm being picky.

Since I'm here though, it's a very nice outcome frank and well detailed.

Rofl FE I don't know who exactly that guy is. He looked like a sort of ninja/samurai guy so I thought I would do it... Anyways guys, I made you wait enough I'll post the c4d links right now. Expect them in a good 10 mins.

Nice tut. This is what I got:

Tell me if you think it's better than my current so I can use it.

Hmm not that bad. I think the colors don't really match (from the purple c4d), but good job. Thanks for taking your time to try it out :l:.

I liked this tutorial! Great job!
My result:

Oh wow... sickage... Good job.

Sorry about the bit of purple, that c4d was just full of a million colors that looked awesome and purple happened to be one of them. I think I even had green in there, but it got lost in the blending process luckily.

No problem man your off to a good start just keep working on it!

Thankyou for this great tutorial.

okay okay you got me i used some of these techniques for this one but yeh most i knew thanks for the tut

my result



like it althrough the pentooling ruins it... don't know how to make stuff like that good...

Yeah Frank, how DID you make your paths look like that? That is one kick ass setting.

Okay... I guess I'll spend my valuable time typing a paragraph explaining... lol jk. Ok so...

This method was gotten from a way I learned to make lightsabers. Basically you make a new black layer and set it to screen. Then you do your paths and stroke them in white. Duplicate the layer so that you have 4 copies in total. Leave the top one, blur the second one by 10, blur the third one by 20 and blur the last one by 30. Hide all layers except for the paths and merge them into one layer. Set it to screen again. Reshow all layers. Color balance on the paths to your liking. I use this to make lightsabres as well.
EDIT: Some of your results dont show.

Cool! Thanks for the help! BTW, my current sig was a result of this tut, much better than my other result.

Cool Im glad I was able to help you.

im gona do the tut again with the pathtool trick :p

I only followed this tut for the c4d steps and the path tooling. Here is my outcome.
