Ooo those are nifty! Nice job on the wood, btw, looks real spiffy.

Is that a "Dieting For Dummies" book I spy inside? Tsk, tsk, diets don't work!

[Beth]

I just wanted it to make it look like I'd done a lot of work on it.
Recolouring this item was too easy.
I never stick to diets neither,  but saw that and laughed.
That's nothing, the book underneath that one is the last Harry Potter book mwahahaha.

What we should really be waiting for at this point is "Harry Potter's Magical Diets For Dummies". Now that would be a best seller!

Can you imagine all the fans buying it?

You could duplicate the layer, make the top layer lighter or brighter with one of the tools, then put the eraser at about 50% and erase whatever you don't need. That gives highlights as well.

I can't do that because the texture is on three layers: flat midtone, shadows and highlight. The highlight on top is composed of two layers of strokes, and then a soft brush over it (all with a low opacity) because I thought it wasn't shiny enough, but increasing the strokes' opacity too much made it look too streaky.


This is what it looks like with the halo, and then without the strokes. There isn't much of a difference, so you can see how low the opacity is. I don't know. Am I being too hard on myself? Does it look good like this? Maybe Maxis-like, but not in a (gulp) bad way? (With halo, for comparison)

What program do you use?

Bwahaha I love that username ^^^
Do you guys think I should make more colours of the sideboard?
What wood would you like?

Oh, tomato, don;t think you're getting away too easily, your unit is next (the one in the other thread!)

[Jojoba]

If you feel like venturing into requests, I'd love a dark mahogany colour Beth And are the objects inside the sideboard part of the mesh? If so, have any plans to recolour/retexture those?

[Beth]

Yep they're part of the mesh :]
I can do that for ya, Gimme till tomorrow.
What would you like on the inside?

Oh, WOW!  Pretty! Thanks Bruno! (or is it Mr. Toothrot? Mrs. Toothrot? Ms.?)

[Astonished lemons]

I thought Bruno was a girl?

At first I thought she was a boy, then people said she was a girl, so I think its Miss toothrot.

 

[Paden]

In the process of nabbing, now, Bruno, and thank you very much! Between all the stuff I've gotten in the past few days, like Falling Water by Mama Hec, recolours by Emma, bedding by Neriana, the Shaker Set by tomato/Paleoanth, and other stuff, my download folder hates me! I love it!

[Emma]

I love Bruno stuff! Just gorgeous.
