Nice effect. I never could figure out a good use for the Glass Tiles filter but your idea of running it against some Solid Noise produces a nice result.

Thanks for the tutorial, I truly love the final effect.

[Silvertayl]

Some screen shots would be helpful :idea:

I did one and made a ball out of it but I didn't put in the part about the plastiwrap cuz I couldn't understand what you were saying in
this part.... (You say copy to 2. What does that mean...

Now Select The Noise Layer And Go To>Light And Shadow Plasti-Wrap Change Layer Copy To 2
And Click Ok

I really like the colors in the square one.....
I added a new transparent layer then found a gradient that I liked, added it and then merged them together....

when you click on plastiwrap the options come up and there are two things you can change.The option that says final layer copy you change from 1 to 2 and then press ok.Hope I helped :D

I like this effect it's cool,here's my try :D

[molly]

Promise, this is my last one. they are so much fun..... thanks for the easy but great tute

Your welcome,it looks awesome with the plastiwrap and animation:D

[molly]

yeah I think that bit of shine gives it some zip..... thanks

[Silvertayl]

I don't have any copy options in my Plastic Wrap filter, here's a screen shot of the filter menu and the filter. All I get when I run the filter is a white canvas? :?

Did you already have plasti wrap installed? If you did maybe it is an older version

[molly]

Yes it shows that it is installed on her screen shot and I just tried it 3 times on 3 different pictures with different settings. It worked every time. Very strange..... Silvertayl did you try some different background? and higher or lower number?

sorry I wasn't really clear in the last post :oops: I meant before coming on too the tut or did she follow the link here and dl it
I have also tried a few more times but I didn't get a blank white screen either.Maybe you still had your gradient layer selected when using the plasti wrap instead of the noise layer.

[Silvertayl]

Thanks fellow Gimpers :P , problem solved I had a different Plastic Wrap filter which for this tut was the wrong one. Now I have two, (see below):



Now I can post some results :D

[2-ton]

does anyone know how they differ?

[Silvertayl]

Here's 5 I used Grain Extract or was it Grain Merge instead of Overlay and a radial gradient for 2 and 5:
1)


2)


3)


4)


5)

I'm not sure but the 'Plastic Wrap Multi Layer...' leaves you with a white blank canvas.

[Oregonian]

Those are cool Silvertayl. Nice exploration of layer modes there and the circular gradient is cool.

Somewhere recently the multi-layer plasti-wrap filter was used with the lava script to make moving shiny lava. It's one of fencepost's scripts.

The glass tiles filter made me think of privacy glass. The figure has a plasma layer behind it.

I like the window O, looks like a snow covered landscape outside. I bet Oregon looks just like that at the moment?
