Sexy Geek

[oxoniensis]

The sexy geek icon was rather popular last night, so I thought I'd make a few more. Oh hell, who am I kidding? I just wanted an excuse to play with Clark and colours and blends. ;-)

Thanks Emelerin! I'm fond of that one, although it looks so simple.

I can't help it, just love Clark in glasses. I'm taking #6.

[oxoniensis]

I was so disappointed when he took the glasses off at the end of the episode: I hope they reappear!

[acampbell]

They'd better, or I won't speak to him!

I loved the way he kept taking them off and putting them back on, just like a regular person getting used to glasses. Like, "Do I really want to wear these? or can I get along without them? Can I ever get used to them?"

I'd love to share #6 with someone. They're all beautiful. Love the colors.

I was amused at the end, when he got caught staring at himself in the mirror! *g*

You know, I think this is the first time you've had one of my icons from a post. So I'm ever so pleased that you want one. Help yourself to whatever you want. :-)

I'm going to snag #6. Great job, as usual!

[oxoniensis]

Thanks Serafina, and glad you like it. :-)

I want number 2....love the color....I've been trying to get something like this done. Loved the other icons as well.

However...you can do those borders yourself by using a preset path. It's dead simply. You did use brushes..right?

[oxoniensis]

I was pleased with the colour on #2: it's one of the first times I've managed to get a gradient colour to look the way I wanted it.

Only a few of these used brushes for the borders: most I outlined and bucket filled, because I wanted specific shapes. I mostly used brushes for a faint texture.

I've never used a preset path though. I'll have to explore.... *g*

Well..i'm impressed..I have yet to achieve such a color!

Bucket filled? what do you mean?

You should do the paths...it works to great!

[oxoniensis]

Bucket filled? what do you mean?

The tool on the left, that's grouped with the gradient fill tool. It's next to the eraser.

I tried playing with preset paths, and found the bit on the right that said paths, but I couldn't see how to get anything to happen! I'll have to hunt up a tutorial to get some clues.

I'd love to grab #11, if it hasn't already been claimed. :)

[oxoniensis]

They're all for sharing, so it's yours as long as you don't mind sharing!

[timian]

Not a problem, lol. Thanks!
