Thanks for the brush wallace

Sure thing Molly.
I'm thinking of making another brush, but this time including many more letters and numbers.

cool

Yes Molly and here is that animated brush, with 34 different letters and number. I made these images below using it. It's still not perfect though, but it's close enough.
I used Rod's image for here, http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1491#p18270 to help me create both animated letter brushes.



You can get the new updated Letters and Numbers brush from here. viewtopic.php?f=22&t=11860&p=160537#p160537

Much better job with this set then I did Wallace; thanks for the brush.

You're welcome Lyle and thanks. The biggest issue I had was how I was going to create all those angled letters, but thanks to Rod I didn't have to.

This is fun (if not entirely relevant to a GIMP forum)

How about you save some of the really nice side angled letters as png image with transparency and post them for us?

Show off (but I definitely like it Kevin). lol

I'd certainly be willing to, but I'd need some sort of requirements before doing so.

What angles do you want to view them from?
Where do you want the light source relative to the letters?
What font?
Which characters? (A-Z a-z 0-9 any accented characters, üéÅ etc?)

I'd presume you want the letters to be a neutral colour so that they can easily be colourized later.

Thank you paynekj, really outstanding!
Wallace, where should I install your brush? I can't find it in my tool brush. Thank you so much.

See the blue letters in this image below. These are some of the angles I was referring to. Also the font can be something similar to what is in the image. You're spot on with color, but I really haven't any idea as to the light source.



Place the brushes in you Gimp user brushes folder.

The small red tick denotes animated brushes.

Only got time to play about creating one layer of text, but here are the results. I'll add a file at the end that includes my xcf and gimp chat brush.

That look like a good start.

great he4rty, the letters really stick out nicely

Nice teamwork folks! I think we have this one licked.

Wallace and he4rty thank you both for the brushes.

Thank you so much Wallace, I'd installed other thing by mistake. Thank you for your brushes.
He4rty, I'll use yours too. Thank you.

Sure thing Issabella.

I have noticed a few inconsistencies in my latest animated brush and have corrected them.

Here is the new updated Letters and Number brush.

Thank you Wallace, you so perfectionist. Great job my friend.

Thanks again Issabella.
