Lo cierto es que la imagen puede generar alguna duda, pero la explicación, bien razonada, lo deja todo claro, al menos para mi, vamos.

si, pero si mezclas magenta y amarillo en la vida real tamopco nunca obtendrás rojo, siempre lo verás o tirando a magenta o tirando a naranja xD

bdellovibrium In reply to vandervals [2011-03-24 07:36:39 +0000 UTC]

si tuviera algo de idea, de photoshock o lo que sea, seguramente sí que me ayudaría... Pero como simple mortal sólo puedo admirar algo que para mí es casi incomprensible... ¡Tantos colores! ¡Tantas paletas! ¡ay omá! que me da estrés de pensarlo XD
Si algún día experimento con ello... no dudaré en recurrir a tus tutoriales
Un saludo ^^

Raydal In reply to ??? [2011-03-22 17:27:14 +0000 UTC]

great tutorial *_*
just one question... when do you start to work on separated layer for the dragon? and is it the only thing you had on separate layer from the initial color scheme (I mean: I know you probably used a lot of layers for light, texture, leaves, etc... but the big main objects are just the dragon and the bg? )

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

vandervals In reply to Raydal [2011-03-22 23:49:06 +0000 UTC]

hahahahaha! you cought me there!

so as to make the tutorial I worked every new step on a diferent layer, but then I realised I had my dragon in a lot of diferent transparent layers... so I merged the image and croped the dragon, it is just by the step I change the color of the dragon with the curvs, almost at the middle of the process
