Mtpaint Sci Fi

Hi All

I have always been fascinated by sci fi art even when I was a kid;  I even used to have my mom purchase books for me just based on the front cover.  As a result, I started drawing sci fi art.

Here is another project I working on using Mtpaint.  This one I doing for my Mom for her third book in the Alien series. This one is only partly finished and I need to have some more discussions with her before this one is completed.

I used about 3 layers for the snow and the trees and about 4 layers for the stars and the planet.  The nebula(or galaxy) I did in another layer by using the "speckling brush" using lots of colors, then applying a gaussian blur to the layer.

For the planet, I used the circle tool with a gradient; then I used the speckling brush again with various colors.  Lastly, I used the smudge tool to give it a blend.

Enjoy!

Red2

This is an experiment I did with mtpaint called red2.

I am currently using mtpaint because it takes up less of my system resources the either Inkscape or GIMP, although I will use those at a later date.

I used 4 layers in this pic, with the first one being the background layer with a gradient tool.  The other 3 layers were added afterwards.  I did adjust the opacity on them.

Incidentally, for more info on Mtpaint, please consult the Mtpaint handbook @ mtpaint.sourceforge.net/handbook/en_GB/chap_00.html.

I am still consulting it as a reference.




Thanx for popping by!
