MatrixChicken 879 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 (edited) So I saw @@ProjectRKA's collection of minimalist wallpapers, and it inspired me to try to make one of my own. I don't really like the way it came out because of how much RD obstructs the words, but... Eh. xD So. Your thoughts, please? So, I made a couple more... :3 (Images inside spoilers for space purposes...) EDIT: THE SAGA CONTINUES! GET THE FULL ALBUM NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!!!1111!!!!1!!1!eleven Rainbow Dash: Twilight Sparkle: Applejack: Rarity: Fluttershy: Pinkie Pie: NOW IMPROVED TO PERFECTION.

Have a question though, how did you go about making this? I may wanna make one for like a signature. Well, there's really a few steps... First, I went to the MLP Vector Club on Deviantart for the RD vector, and downloaded it... I just used the dropper tool to get the color of her body stroke color, than filled the background with it. Then I took her body fill color and used that for the text. I scaled it around until it looked good-ish, and the little bar in the middle was just an Idea I had. Also, in the original vector, RD had one eye open, so I just copied her closed eye and pasted it over the other one and did some fine-tuning to get it right.

Agent153 50 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 I see. Well thanks for the info! I'll look into that Vector Club, see if I can find a good Derpy, and try to make something. One last thing, what program did you use to make the image or was it something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One last thing, what program did you use to make the image or was it something else? I used a probably-less-well-know-than-some program called Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo XI. It works, but it doesn't always do everything you wan it to. I hear Gimp is a pretty capable program, but I've never really used it to a huge extent because I'm so used to the other program.

Agent153 50 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 Again thanks for all the help and info you have given to me. Have downloaded that Gimp program, hopefully I first timer like me can make something at least passable. Wish me luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProjectRKA 2,848 January 23, 2013 Share January 23, 2013 I barely spent any time on this, and as you can see, it didn't take that much work. I didn't spend all that much time on my wallpapers either. What I used most time on, was figuring out which font to use, and which vectors to use. OT: I like the wallpaper, actually. Also the way you placed the vector. I hear Gimp is a pretty capable program, but I've never really used it to a huge extent because I'm so used to the other program. Gimp is basically a free version of photoshop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. :3 It's still not wuite as minimalist as I'd like it to be, but it'll do. Maybe I'll do some of these for the other mane 6 as well, but this was really just more of a test. :P We really like the face... xD I just made a Twilight and AJ one... Well, one for each. Whatcha think? :3 Twily: AJ: The AJ one took a bit longer because I needed to decide how to situate the text, it being one line rather than two. BTW, you can see all these and some other stuff on my Deviantart page. :3 Edited January 23, 2013 by Kentucky Fried 1 Deviantart: MatrixChicken | Youtube: ThunderFilmStudios | Twitter: @JohnAlBerge Twitch.tv: ThunderFilms | Soundcloud: ScootriX Scootaloo vector by robzombiefan2121 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
