_ / Wanna make cool convertions, eh
?..............................

Conversion - Is this it sucks? Conversion - exposing the
Titans? Conversion - how to make them cool? Conversion - Why?
So, the question "so it sucks" and "why" is, in principle, have
almost identical answers.
No, it does not suck. Conversion give you the opportunity to
learn cool technology, while taking up less time for proper
Drawing Paths. Conversion allows you to focus on
technique, relegating to second place Redraw the picture.
Why the conversion? If you do everything to be honest, the
conversion can only be used in various software, but never on
party ... Yes, of course, this is - if the honest, and it is
possible - as I did.
How to make them cool? Hmm, very difficult. For example, let's
see how I was doing "sadness", which won the forever2e3se.
The first step - find a cool theme, although in general the
conversion occurs only when some kind of picture I was
"hooked", and If this is not - I do not do anything.
The author of the original - lazur, known pc / amiga
pixel-artist. As called the original "sadness" I do not know,
but pretty sure that this picture zanyalya first place at a
party ... But this I learned only later, at first I just saw a
cool picture and under the impression started doing CPA. The
original look like this so.

As you can see, too many small parts, virtually nothing
parse. Yes, diver and may have done it with a jeweler
work, but I have not yet risen to his level. And that means -
the standard we choose one person and increase it to full
screen.
(Sad02)
By the way, you should not forget in Photoshop to play around
with brightness / contrast, because envelope without such
treatment simply impossible - the whole screen is filled with
textures, even the contours of the frequent can not tell.
So the first step behind. The first thing I started treatment -
hand. She told me immediately once attracted, transitions
red-zheltyybely suggested itself there by themselves, but when
it was drawn The first version, I realized that the three
transitions are not enough and decided to add between red and
yellow and even green. Some argue that it does not look, but -
I like it, so be it. At least some originality. Well, as you
draw the transitions I I will not teach, it's simple. In this
case, I decided to use pheel'ovskuyu 45-degree pattern. Here's
what happened.
(Sad03)
Long thought, what do you do with a person? The idea of
coloring the color disappeared almost immediately: first, I
could not leave all the details, Second, do not want to do a
picture like all those hundreds of persons. Monotonic dark
green face on a colored background - the bad idea? So, we bring
hands face: remove unneeded textures, many add, draw a beard,
textures use intuitively - what you think is right, the
one-and-play. Here's what happened.
(Sad04)
Another problem - the background. On ideas, you have to do
plot, but I just could not think of anything there to draw. In
the original version of the background looked like.
(Sad05)
As you can see here I have used yet another non-standard
texture "circles" for the first time that I saw on the
pc-oldschoolgfx papers, and then the pictures paracels'a of
"dogma". But This version of the background was discarded at
once - a monotonous person's idea must be contrasted with the
rich background and the blue color does not leave behind
"saturated background"; D. Accepted the decision to draw
plasma, but all the same "circle" - tell you a secret, I just
fell in love with a texture, and now all my new work, I use it,
which in part, and where not. How to draw such color
transitions aka plasma, I think the average artist knows and
himself, but for you I will explain: first come up with simple
form, Draw the standard textures (sad06), these textures and
then bring to a kind of "circles". Between the object and the
background should not be black contours, this I know, but at
that point I just do not get done without them. Looks like it
is, of course, terrible, but at a large projector, I think
everything is normal smear; D.
Thus, the plasma in the background ready, decorated with a
hand, a person has acquired beautiful textures. What is left?
Draw the hidden text, of course! ; D Be sure to say hello to
all respected artists, say the authors of the original and
"hide" all this (inc = paper). What happened at the exit?
(Sadness)
_ / Tips ...............................................
.........
. If you decided envelope - no need to take certain stsenovye
pictures, better go out and take a photo of your favorite girl,
scan, and handled. In this case, you can even deceive
everybody, saying that drawing it myself, the more do
milestones - a matter of one day. So no one can prove that you
are converted, and not draw myself. Another thing - lie it
sucks, and if afterwards will reveal the whole truth (as drunk
tell the first comer at # z80), respect you no longer sharply.
. Several different techniques. This wisdom taught me
gas13 - one of the best artists of today. Where some texture
I use it? And where you want, and use it! If you can
draw "circles," young (as it can paracels), then use them even
in the face, but if they do you obtain the size of familiarity
- their place in the background. On the other textures think
out himself; D.
. Never CONVERT slop picture - better than you it is unlikely
you can do worse - for sure.
. Do not steal pictures - always specify the author of the
original.
. Not a release without the conversion process, does not
convert the slop textures floyd-steinberg, they look awful and
catches in the face of the fact of conversion, always do the
conversion of color, always check each pixel image - it should
stand on its place.
. A good CPA can not be distinguished from hand-drawn work,
remember it.
. DO NOT DO CONVERSIONS! They really suck and every painted
image is always a hundred times better conversion. You're
probably wondering why I did in this case do the conversion?
Hmm, I'm sucker! ; D But in fact, I already gave up this
business and begin to paint original works, it is much better,
although more complicated.
_ / Exposure of the Titans
..........................................
In principle, this does not expose at all, because you can
always know the whole truth about the picture of the author.
Probably, the most malignant conversion - "x-files" by teeray
with e'97. The fact that this conversion, I have little doubt -
d-man.pcb showed once-original image, the contours of which are
absolutely identical with the contours of teeray'ya!
Gas in 1913? Yes, and he does not hide - pictures in kr_news,
starting with 11 rooms, all the graphics in the "end of the
days" by accept.
Virtual but not titanium, but also convertible; D.
Diver?! No, just kidding; D. Diver everything himself drew.
Kristoph much the same until the titanium, but the conversion
was seen repeatedly.
"And what - you ask - all the others draw hands?" Of the Titans
- yes, from ne_titanov - no, almost all the slop of
konverchennye, look at the same cc000 - Duc there half the
picture converted. / / Here I am funny - is not it should be,
there simply mixed copy_no copy; D
_ / Final ...............................................

On this, perhaps, everything. Oh, and do not forget about my
last piece of advice; D
