Title: Fun with Icons


Raechel Skye - May 20, 2004 08:57 PM (GMT)
Since PhotoShop is interesting enough, I thought I might as well make some Icons, like everybody else. Got them transparent-ed, but not very well, still some white splotches. So yeah, this is my first attempt and they are only recolours, so any comments are useful.

And yeah I coloured the last one like that on purpose, simply because I was bored enough to do it.

Cyrus Wagner - May 21, 2004 12:06 AM (GMT)
Request! Could you make a Black Spiner, with red highlights and stabilizer caps. Also, maybe a grey Spinosapper with flame paint on the chainsaws?

The Spinosapper will take longer than I thought. Its hard doing flames and making it a darker shade then it already is. But yeah, I'm working on it.

Cyrus Wagner - May 21, 2004 12:48 AM (GMT)
Rock on! Thank you so much! ^_^ *gives Rae a hug and a God Kaiser plushie*

Raechel Skye - May 21, 2004 12:16 PM (GMT)
Yay! And the SpinoSapper didn't turn out as good as I had hoped. But I tried.

HAH! I found out how to keep them transparent! I rock.

SO AWESOME. o_o Rae, thanks so much.

Enno - May 22, 2004 02:04 PM (GMT)
Earin wants to know how you do that, and could I please get a Green Liger, emeraldish in color, with a light purple cockpit and caps?

Earin - May 22, 2004 02:09 PM (GMT)
I can ask myself thankyou...

How do you do that? It's a amazing!

Could I get you to make one of my GenoSaurer, Burgandy paint, Midnight blue trim, White eye glass, Silver claws, teeth, and talons, and the leave guns their regular colors?

Raechel Skye - May 22, 2004 07:09 PM (GMT)
No real trick, in PhotoShop, press Ctrl+U to adjust the Hue, Saturation and Darkness/Lightness of the image. You can also pick which particular colour to adjust at the top.

I take you meant Blade Liger? Well, anyhow.

And something I stabbed together in my spare time to see if I can do weapons too.

Cool, Can you make an elephander and Shadow Fox for me?

Raechel Skye - May 25, 2004 09:35 PM (GMT)
Yeah... Those already exist... could you be more specific as to what to do to them? Here's the list.

Enno - May 26, 2004 04:17 AM (GMT)
Right since we didn't say thank you earlier, (the internet kept eating our posts) thanks, I love mine, and as you can see from his above post Earin's quite fond of your Mars icon.

He also says the first one is awesome, like a chroma-illusion effect.

Another thing he says is, well this is more of a question, he wants to know how you changed the individual parts, he knows you can alter color, but it changes the whole thing.

Raechel Skye - May 26, 2004 07:28 PM (GMT)
At the top of the Hue/Stuaration/Darkness+Lightness screen, theres a selection box. From that list you can pick Master Red Blue Green Cyan Magenta and Yellow. Pick one of the colours and you can use the colour picker or the little Rainbow bars to adjust it. Of course this only works with parts that are the same colour, so myeh.

MystickSkye - May 27, 2004 01:27 AM (GMT)
I'm wondering if you can remember what my customs look like enough that you can make icons out of them?

If you can't remember, I'll go take some more happy snaps.

Raechel Skye - May 27, 2004 11:56 AM (GMT)
Well, you had that shiny Fuhrer, but other then that I don't remember you posting any in the time I was there. I'll get to it when I'm back from school.

MystickSkye - May 28, 2004 03:03 AM (GMT)
My Fuhrer sucks compared to my other customs >_>

Ah well, I'll go take some happy snaps

Raechel Skye - May 28, 2004 09:47 PM (GMT)
Good, thats time to procrastinate.

Cannon Fury - June 8, 2004 01:03 AM (GMT)
Want a challenge?

Try making a chrome Dibison and Elephander for me please.

o-o Those are there too.

Captain Stalin - July 13, 2004 07:28 PM (GMT)
Would it be possible to get a black Raynos, a Geno Saurer with the Geno Breaker Jet's colors, and a black Pteras? Thanks.

WolfeFuzze - July 13, 2004 08:06 PM (GMT)
May as well try my hand:
This what you want?

Some of Wolfe's awesome work.

Cyrus Wagner - July 13, 2004 09:11 PM (GMT)
My Grey Horn is also a product of Wolfe's skills, it is very nice. o-o

WolfeFuzze - July 13, 2004 09:21 PM (GMT)
Speaking of the Grey horn, I'm still certain that I can get it to look more metallic...

Sorry, it was nagging at me... Feel free to switch it around if you so desire. If not, then at least I got it out of my system :-P

Sups - July 13, 2004 10:57 PM (GMT)
Also, Rae, can I request soemthing from you as well?

A Berserk Fuhrer.
-Metallic Black as a primary color, keep the underbody the same
-Chrome Detailing (Claws, teeth, feet, weapons, caps, etc.)
-Bright Yellow Eyes

Nah, I like the darker one better, looks more Cyrus-ish. >_>;

WolfeFuzze - July 18, 2004 02:08 AM (GMT)
Boredom struck, so I decided to try my hand at doing some of the Custom Zoids of the PKO... well, actually, I've only done the one, but...
Anyway, here it is:

The Spinosapper Custom: Rocky

Also, Sups, I know you asked Rae, but whilst I was in there, I also knocked up this:

Sorry!

EDIT: Two now! Meet the Echo Fox!

Cyrus Wagner - July 18, 2004 05:18 AM (GMT)
*spasms* OH MY GOD!!! That's EXACTLY what the Rocky looks like, I used a model online to go by, and that's exactly what it looked like!.... Well, actually, the original model I used had a hugeass cannon, but that doesn't matter because the Rocky's paint job is just like that. I love the Echo Fox icon, too, although, hehe, Mary actually made me have the Echo Fox use an exitsting Sniper Rifle type, and I'm reconsidering having it have a variation of the DSRs. >_>;;

WolfeFuzze - July 18, 2004 05:29 AM (GMT)
Oh yeah, I rock... And now I guess I'll get to work on the third one... Tum-tee-tum...

((I apologise for any big-headedness that may have come across in this post, but I haven't slept in about 18hrs, and so am tired, and feel slightly drunk for some reason...))

EDIT: And the third one's done... Presenting the Helcat Custom: Hellcat!

((I'll probably do a clearer version later on... the AZ60mmcannons on its head don't seem to be showing too well...))

W00T! No need to be sorry, Wolfe that thing rocks!

Nick - July 18, 2004 06:46 PM (GMT)
Could either one of you make me a a Liger Zero that's a metallic silver with gold claws and teeth?

WolfeFuzze - July 18, 2004 07:59 PM (GMT)

This good enough? It's not really much of a colour change but, hopefully, it's enough...

Nick - July 18, 2004 08:12 PM (GMT)
yeah that works o-o

Nick - July 19, 2004 08:50 PM (GMT)
Um...can you do another Liger 0 thats black with red eyes, teeth, and claws.

WolfeFuzze - July 19, 2004 09:04 PM (GMT)

Et voila!

Captain Stalin - July 19, 2004 09:26 PM (GMT)
I could use a Heldigunner colored after the Geno Breaker Jet.....I have a thing for that color scheme...A re-color of the War Shark would be cool, a more menacing varient....purple doesn't exactly come across as menacing. Gray and red Sinker would be nice, a la Star Wars Rebel Snow Speeder


For simplicity:

Zoid - Color Scheme

Heldigunner - Geno Breaker Jet
War Shark - Anything
Sinker - Star Wars Rebel Snow Speeder
Diploguns - Black
Snipe Master - Dark Gray and Black


Thanks.
