PeterPawn asked how I made this image ... It's lots and lots of the following steps ... variations depending on personal tastes/ wants will always enhance your image Required plugin: Trail v1.0 by pyrochild... Enjoy ...

Brilliant tutorial Welshy, to go with a brilliant plug in. I think this has to be one of the best additions to PDN we`ve seen in a long time. Anyway here is my effort. I saw a tyre in this straight away so I made one. The alloy wheel is stock for convenience really but also because I wanted this to be as realistic as poss.

Because this tutorial had sparked a flurry of works which inspired the artists on this board, I'm proud to Sticky this tutorial. Well done, Welshy, and keep them coming.

That Fella's tire (UK-speak for wheel) was awesome. Here's a ring!

Very nice Pixey! I love the tiny tulip.
(Man of many talents our Goonie (Fella)).
I just noticed your image is a .GIF
GIFs are not as good as .PNG Your images should look much clearer if you save them as a .PNG when they are done. THat way you will have the original file plus the flattened completed one.
Well done Pixey!

Many thanks Goonfella & Barbieq. The tulip is 100% Paint.net-made  Now, I did not know about using .PNG's for a clearer picture. Thanks very much for that tip which I will do from now on. Ohhh - and me bad! Thanks Mr Welsh for the great tutorial
