Yaye i got it up! Great tutorial!

hi guys im new here and this is my first post in this Forum
I love that tutorial its very nice  
Here ist the first tux i've ever made what do you guys think about it

Welcome on CrystalXP.net Devil86HH

Your tux is quite nice, but I think you should make your shirt rounder on the bottom
Anyway, it's still good

This is a good tutorial, but there were some times when a few of us seemed confused (including myself). I saw some typos in this, but can't exactly point them out now, since it's been 3 hours since I started this, and I don't remember where they are. I also saw Rc!'s Tux, with the awkward drop shadow, and found that he was just doing what the tutorial says, since you used the TG2-37.gif image twice in a row, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, after a while I came up with this for my first Tux:

I didn't care for the drop shadow so much, so I gave Tux a little drum to stand on.

You can tell by the nose that I started to work thru the tutorial, but my creative urges took over

i don't have PS so i can't do the tutorial anyway, the tutorial looks great

awesome tutorial..thanxs 4 translating in english overload....its very useful...i would try it ...

Hi
Great tutorial.
It was crystal clear to me!
I made my avatar with this tutorial in dutch orange this time. Now I am looking for new tutorials.

When I find the time to do it (yep I am a fulltime working girl), I want to make lots of crystalised figures for my website.  

no lo puedes poner en español tambien disculpa la molestia

To me this is the best thing ever!   im a self-taught photoshoper so trust me when i say all of this was new to me. stuff i would have never thout of.. Thanks!

heres my Tux

If anyone knows where i can find more tutorials like this one please let me know!

Nice Work Phactor,
but I think you should reduce the opacity of the leg reflections of your tux a bit  

And welcome to CrystalXP

You can see some here
And also take a look at Here
Don't forget to give a glance in  Here

And there are lots of them available in the French Section

Thanks Neil  

Do you mean the foot reflection? (white shine on feet)?

Yes, It'll be nice if you reduce some opacity I'm not saying that it's bad But It'll be more beautiful then
And also why the wavery redials in your tux's foot?? Is that your idea ?? if it is it's Ok

 LOL, i have no clue Neil.. that was one part i got confused on.. I could not get it to copy and flip, like the wing refections did.

Did you follow this steps carefully??

And then

Yeah! i did all that.. i dont know what happen  I'm gona do the hole thing again.. i want to get familiar with this type of work any way

Don't worry, you'll find it easy soon or later . Keep your commitment. And goodluck

Anyway this is my latest design, and it's a part of something which'll available soon here in CrystalXP

well this is best i can come up with..

Thanks for the suport Neil  

That's more like it Didn't I told you that you'll figure that out ?? Good job keep up the commitment.

I threw this together in 5 minutes or so but it kinda takes away from the original tux. Im new to this site and I absolutely LOVE it. I cant believe I didnt find it sooner. I also included my original tux. Constructive critisism is always welcome. Spidey Tux needs a lot of work but im new to this stuff, but I have been using photoshop for about 6 yrs.

Well, I think there are two ways to achieve what you want
#1 You can place the Spider picture over the body, & wing layers and give it a same shape as them. Then follow the normal tutorial. In the end you'll obtain something like this
(sorry for the right side end )

#2 Or you can try this Tutorial and apply the spider picture as a T-shirt to the Tux

That is totally awesome. I was thinking of adding the beak and eyes outside but you dont see spider-mans face and I didnt think it would look so kewl. I guess I should work on it more. Its my 3rd day here I believe so im not really good at it but ive been using photoshop for a while so I know the basics and shorcuts to help me make things faster. I made a buddy from the buddy tutorial and a porthole.

Thanks much for the tutorial. I'm not too fluent in french thus I'm very grateful for your English version.

EDIT: Here's the simple Tux I came up with. I realized it's some work to finish a tux with all those lighting effects.

Well, here's my first go at it.  This was the longest tutorial I've ever done lol.  It's awesome.  Thanks for such a great piece of work.  Now I can start modifying my very own tux !  TY !  Comments on my tux please ?  Did I miss anything ?

It looks like I messed up on the "drop shaddow" step at the end of the tutorial

I tried a different way for the drop shaddow.  Is the pic in the tutorial for that step wrong ?  Anyways, both are side by side... obviously the second one is better.
