Hi everyone

I liked the movie 300 very much and thought of creating a Spartan-Tux some months ago but I never managed to take enough time , but now I have succeeded to do that , here it is:

Before submitting it to the gallery section , I want your suggestions (if any) on how to make it better , so have your comments plz .

Wow, great! The movie is very nice indeed. Some things you might be able to improve: add scratches the helmet and the shield. Perhaps it looks better, perhaps not. There's a little bit of aliasing on the left side of the cape and on the top of the helmet. Overall result is fantastic though.

Gruzz Thanks for your suggestions , here's the modified version:

I think it looks better now .

Excellent!
How did you make the scratches?

+1 ! very nice

Definitely!

Yea,it looks much better now Good work

Wow. Great work. Once again ;D

Since there are no excuses left so I think I should better upload the tux to the gallery .

I'm sure it'll be accepted. It's on of the best Tuxes I've ever seen.

Thanks Gruzz for boosting me up , I don't know how much time is it going to take for the acceptance , but I am sure that it won't get as much time as has been taken for my announcement as Moderator .

Again, how did you make the scratches

sosoe222 Sorry for the negligence    , I done this for making the scratches

I drawn a straight line and gave it a 'Motion Blur' in the direction parallel to the line reduced it's fill opacity '0' and gave it a black-white Gradient Overlay having black color at the top and white below setting its Blending Mode to 'Overlay/Soft Light' Created a new blank layer and merged the blurred line with it setting the Blending Mode of the merged layer to 'Overlay/Soft Light' Duplicated this layer many times and transformed it for different positions , that's it .

Thanks

It's almost perfect. The only thing i dont like its the helm, it looks kinda flat, to say it somehow, it looks more like a mask.

Very Nice ASHAR!  

Me wanna hug him  

Thanks Mike-Saf ad Breakfastclub for appreciating .

GmT-Curwen Thanks for your suggestion , what do you recommend me to do to make the helmet not to look so flat ?
