Well heres the story i usually use Photoshop but i seen alot of GIMP Things that photoshop cant do so i spent my whole day looking at a screen i enjoyed doing it until i had one ONE idea i wish i never to make a tutorial so i sat down and spent another half a day making a 600 word Tut just for you guys
and trust me am i tired so if there are any mistakes or anything please say
Howdy ho class, today we are going to make this [Basic Knowlege of The GIMP Is required]
This took me nearly all day to figure out
[This is my first GIMP Tut my other was photoshop]
Lets start off by getting a stock image go here-
Stocks(Use the image categories)
Then make a canvas 500-190 or anything you want
I chose
(I resized it)
Then i opened it up on GIMP and copied it, i then pasted it on my blank signature
dupe it 9 times call your first one Base
choose base-and your first dupe Then filter-Noise-Pick 50 on both
This is the hard bit
Put...
Base on normal
Pasted Layer Copy on Overlay
Pasted layer copy 1 on Overlay
Pasted layer copy 2 on Divide
Pasted layer copy 3 on Screen
Pasted layer copy 4 on Overlay
Pasted layer copy 5 on Overlay
Pasted layer copy 6 on Grain Merge
Pasted layer copy 7 on Normal
Pasted layer copy 8 on Screen
And thats the hard bit done so you should now have...
Right we now haveyour pic time to add some MORE effects
then Pick it again same effects 50 on both but put it on Pasted Layer 8
Now... go to Pasted layer 5 and Gaussian blur it do it 15.00 and 15.00
Now go to copied layer 7 and motion blur it Zoom-Length 157
Nearly done and nearly on Chapter 2-Adding text just one more thing
Add wind to layer 8 options-
Blast
Left
Trailing
Threshold 8
Strength-40
Now go to copied layer 8
And Video it and put it to staggered
[size=16]Chapter 2-Text[/size]
Ok pick a groovy font from
Da Font Hopefully you know how to upload font's its just the same as uploading them normally and make the font black
and now to add a paint splat effect
go to select-Select all
Now go make sure your foreground color is on black go to-Edit-Stroke selection make it 10 pixels
Now put it on red do the same but put it on 6 pixels it might cut a bit of the letters but
for the paint splats go here-
http://www.deviantart.com/download/60408450/Splatter_Brushes_by_Insanity_Prevails.zipAnd Download them Unzip them and install them in your brush file which is in program files
make 2 new layers on the first layer add 3 splashes around the outside on the second layer add about 2 on the outside now go to your 2nd layer and go to filter-combine-depth merge mess around with the 2 paint layers your picture should now look like this
Next we are going to make the paint splatters look bubbly
Merge the paint layers and do this-
Waves-smear Amplitude-0 Phase-0-Wave Length-25.25
and that will smear it a little
And just a quick little filter on your base-Filters-Sparkle-keep them all the defaults and that MIGHT add a Little effect but if it doesent don't get worried
Thats the end of my tut i hope you enjoyed!
