Here's a new banner I made this week.
Phew. A whole lot of manipping sure went into this one:

Sadly I'm only able to view this on my phone right now, but I can zoom in...and mother of f**k. This is gorgeous. I can't even begin to say how much I love...
ReplyDeleteThe colours, the manips, the border, the text all fought for my attention. I'll go back and stare when I'm done here.
I'm such a fangirl...
Haha. Oh, Paula. You make me laugh :D
DeleteGot to admit, though, this has been one of my favourites ever. I'm not sure what it is, but something makes me really happy with it...
I'd personally be happy with all of it, though I think the text pulls me in the most now. Is that a bevel and texture?
DeleteAlso, I couldn't tell, but is the Irina picture a manip, or from the wedding scene in BD?
Uhh... *runs off to check PSD* It is a bevel, with the contour option checked. The kind of texture effect must come from the base font itself. I'm normally adverse to beveled text, but it seemed to fit for this one, so I went with it.
DeleteAnd *hangs head* Irina is not a manip. I had originally put her face on another body, but then I found this pic and thought she could get away with her modern-ish appearance as she is the mistress in the story.
What font did you use? I don't use the bevel feature that much, either. But it definitely works for this banner.
DeleteIrina's picture is fine :)
Sorry for all the questions, btw...
not at all :)
DeleteThe font is called Humanistic, it's quite similar to Garamond. Here's the link: http://www.fonts2u.com/humanistic.font
I'm more than happy to send the PSD over if you wanted to take a look at the text. :D
Thanks! Ooh, sure, if you don't mind sending out the PSD. That would be great :) You have my email, right?
