S!,

Still learning Photoshop. This is another attempt to get a handle on all the fine points of Photoshop. This tank was inspired by the photos I found online. I like the angular lines where the white wash wasn't applied to these tanks. It reminds me of the old battleship camouflage. I need to make my lines smaller, which I will try to do in future skins. Once I'm satisfied, I'll put up a link to this skin if any of y'all might want it.

Yeah, I started searching using different key words, but the idea came from a color plate that I found on modeling forum. BTW Naz, I found a plate that uses the same colors as your Spring Panther skin. I'll post both plates below.

[Na-zdorovie]

ah yes, the spring one did use that as a ref, with some artistic licence

i have been asked by a few people if i could do a video of how i do some, mainly the finer points of how i make my own brushes etc, i just have never done a video so no clue lol

S! Naz,

I don't know what video card you use, but if you use Nvidia, download Nvidia Geforce Experience. There are some hotkeys in that program that will capture screenshots, video, etc. You can use the video hotkey to capture your work. The program captures the video and saves it as a .mp4 file. I don't know much about video editing, but there's a couple of programs out there that are free to use that will allow you to edit the video. I know I would appreciate a "how to" video that includes your steps & techniques. I think Davinci Resolve is one of those free programs, or at least, it may be a free trial period.

 

BTW, I ordered 3 books on tank camouflage. I got a good deal on them with the exception of the shipping. Shipping from Sweden to the States is crazy expensive.

LOL, I'm sure that you could get more out of them my unskilled hands. Make those tutorial videos for noobs like myself and I'll scan them to .pdf for you. It may take some time though.
