Heylo everyone. I've been playing a bit today with PDN and I've got the hang of what is what on the forum. So I thought I'd start my little area off with something new. I haven't attempted something like this before, but I've noticed I'm branching off into new things, so I hope it turned out well! The second image is just a close up of the inside of the globe. Enjoy!

I like your `Thingy'

HELEN · **Posted:** Fri Jul 17, 2009 2:27 pm

That's really nice!! There should be more highlights, but it's really cute the way it is. I love the base of the globe; it's fantastic! :shock:

I know you asked me how I did my glossies, but I just can't find the time. If you want, I can send you the .pdn files.

Thank you everyone!

It is indeed a "thingy" Goonfella. I have no idea what it's supposed to be :lol:

@Helen I'm glad you like it! I'm not sure which one you're saying there should be more highlights on, but the "thingy" I intentionally didn't put any on. I tried a few here and there, and left a couple, but I like it best that way. The globe part could use a few more, though. Maybe not on the glass, but the edges of it. I think it might need to be defined more. But that's just my opinion. Let me know which one and roughly where you think it could use more.

Thankfully, I'm not so busy this month. No birthdays, family, or church events to plan for! The .pdn files would be nice though! I should be able to see what kind of blending you use and such, which seems to be my biggest problem. :geek:

<hand up in class teacher's pet smiley> I know what it is ... it's a modern art sculpture

Great start to your gallery Shadow' ... looking forward to seeing more :arrow:

HELEN · **Posted:** Sat Jul 18, 2009 2:31 pm

I meant the globe. The inside of the globe is fantastic; no changes in that. I barely use blending, but such easy methods you'd jump up with joy. :lol:

(Check your PM).

I love the 3D-ness of your images. Keep posting stuff!

Thanks Lannce, welshblue..I was thinking the same thing, but it gives me an idea. I think it might look nifty without the globe. That way the "sculpture" will have a nice base to it..hm hm I'll have to try it in a bit!

Here's a few glossy balls I made after looking at the files you sent Helen.

And here are some bubbles I made.

oma · **Posted:** Thu Jul 23, 2009 3:33 am

getting real good there. that bubbles one is my fav of the four.

ciao OMA

~WelshBlue~ · **Posted:** Thu Jul 23, 2009 2:20 pm

4 great new editions ... I'm with Oma and the bubbles being my fave' ... nice use of drop ripple behind. And a great colour :wink:

shadowsoftears · **Posted:** Fri Jul 24, 2009 2:34 pm

Thank you both! The bubbles are my favorite too. I tried a few tutorials for making them but didn't like the results so I tried my own way. I surprised myself with them to say the least.

HELEN · **Posted:** Fri Jul 24, 2009 3:08 pm

I'm happy to see that you're very successful in making those glossies and bubbles. Really nice. :wink:

Here's the updated version of my globe and also the "sculpture" without the globe.
