Ugh, not working, need help

[jelazakazone]

Ok, I've got my people appliqued on and I'm happy with them, but I wanted to add some water over top of them. I thought that having a shimmery reflection underneath would be nice, but this is like stacking them on top of a rocket. FML. I don't think I can get this stuff to work in this way. Maybe I need Angelina film. Any thoughts? I know I need

Yeah, the water beneath them is way too shiny compared to the rest of the "water". Have you thought of...a "rippled" mirror image of a color that is a combination of the person's color and blue? to make it look like them as a reflection?

[jelazakazone]

Hm, I was thinking of doing something with a reflection of the shapes, but I hadn't thought of using the colors. There is this other stuff, Angelina film that I might be able to make work, but I don't have any, so I would need to get it asap.

When I saw that you had replied, I was hoping you were volunteering to write me a little fic to explain this scene:D *glomps you* Good to see you. <3

Man, if I didn't have three PL's left to beta, I would take you up on that. I finished the first one today and now I have 12 days to get the next one done. Tis gonna be a busy month, I tell ya....

*hugs*

Wow. *blinks* 3? *blinks some more* Damn. That's a LOT of beta'ing.

Heh. I know all about the busy month problem, but mine is more like, busy and away from the internet. I wondered where you'd disappeared to. Now I know! <3

A shimmery effect can be done using the same fabric as you have on top (the red and the yellow cutouts mirroring the positions) and then overlay the lower pieces with shiny translucent material on top, maybe fine netting or see-through material (sorry I can't think of the name of it - crystal chiffon?).

[jelazakazone]

Angelina film would do the trick too, I think. What is crystal chiffon? That sounds promising too.

[archaeologist_d]

Shiny traslucent material but i am not sure of the name.

Hunh. Funny how perspective is everything! I see something light and fluffy here. Flirty, almost playful!
