Cartoon-like?

[nickygabriel]

Hallo,

I have a question :)

Is it possible to achieve this effect in GIMP:
Cartoon-like wallpaper. If yes, can you tell me how?
I will be grateful for any help!

It is possible in theory. However, there are a LOT of different techniques that were used in the image that you linked. Some of those techniques even look a bit more like they were hand-drawn and worked in an illustrator program like InkScape, which is an entirely different animal from GIMP.

The thing about blends and composite images like this is that it's better to learn the techniques that make up the composition than to learn the composite technique. In the case of this particular image, I wouldn't even know where to begin in identifying the individual elements and techniques. Look through GIMP tutorials.net to see if you can identify some of the techniques you hope to recreate. That's as good a place as any to start.

PS: sorry that this entry spent so much time in-queue. I never got an e-mail for it to be approved, and the only reason I saw it today is that I was opening up my community management page to redo the layout on another comm. I know that my response is not timely, but I hope I was able to be of some help despite my tardiness. If you have any other questions, please feel free to ask.
