audhol Posted March 28, 2025 Author Posted March 28, 2025 So..................... I learned 2 (well 3 realy but the third is kinda minor) new things this week. 1 creating paths in gimp then using them to wrap text. Kinda a niche thing but very usefull none the less. also in this image we can see the use of GFic renders which is the third little thing I learned to add geometric shapes as a layer, ones that are freely editable and able to accept filters as in the drop shadow filter applied here. The biggest thing this week was finally plucking up the courage to tackle warp projection in SP. Basicaly it allows me to create a cage around the part of the object I want to apply the 2d image too, contrary to using the uv projection it doesnt deform the image basqed on the topography of the mesh. Its a lot more time consuming than simply positioning the image with the uv projection as each point of the "cage" has to be mapped to its relevant position on the mesh. The benefits are huge though so I go from a flat 2d image like this, to a projected image like this those deformaties are the image wrapping around the map to produce an ingame effect like this, The crispness of the straight edges and the lack of deformation of the image is not something I could achieve with any other method. The bad news in all this is that now all the other tats look kinda poor in comparison so I may have to do the rest of them again using a warp projection rather than a uv one. The whole point of me explaining this is that some of you expressed an interest in making your own mods and my point is that there is always stuff to learn, it doessnt matter what we already know, it is always less than we could know so its never too late to start on the journey. 2
belegost Posted March 29, 2025 Posted March 29, 2025 (edited) I have no idea what you just said, but that image is awesome... except for the comic book captions. Lose them, or make a version without them, they look stupid and totally not fit thematically. FO4 perhaps, but not Skyrim. Edited March 29, 2025 by belegost

Uncle Aud's Handy Hints and Tips No. 68 So this particular section of the tattoo is on the back but we want it to read from right to left as it follows on from the right arm (looking from front) As we are adding text the way the warp projection works it will be mirrored so how do we premirror the text? Easy-Peasy, simply build your path in gimp from right to left, when we apply the "text along path' modifier gimp will automatically reverse the text to follow the direction of the path. Obviously I have to prerotate each image layer through 180 degrees for it to be correctly oriantated for a back tattoo. The pathing tool is incredibly easy to use then we type our text as normal be forez selecting the textalongpath modifier, from here we create a new layer then use the new tewt path and choose "path to selection" this adds the text path as a selection to the new layer which we can easily bucket fill in, afterwards we can still add the drop shadow filter to give it an outline as you can see in the previous parts of this tattoo group.

audhol Posted April 2, 2025 Author Posted April 2, 2025 In case anyone is interested in how I'm getting the look for the tattoo's. It's a mixture of four layers,, using the G'Mic plugin filters for Gimp 1 is the outline, firstl it needs a white background layer behind the alpha to prevent the filter using black; then I give it a little push with "freaky details" filter before a custom version of "comic Book" to achieve a vector like outline. this then needs the white turning back to alpha but with a 0 opacity threshold to increase the line size followed by an exposure filter to turn the white back to black. A second copy of the merged images is then given a different version of the "comic book" filter to highlight some colours. Again we add a white layer to remove the alpha so we can keep the transluceny afterwards. We then again turn the white to alpha but also reduce the overall opacity of the layer. Finally we will use two copies of the "Ink Wash" filter, we do not need to do anything beforhand with the alpha as it does not affect it on its application. the first has the white turned to alpha giving us a kind of shading effect that is pplaced above the colour layed with full opacity, the second has the black turned to alpha but with the transparency threshold quite high and is placed at the bottom of the stack to give some small highlights. All the layers together give this. 2

You're on the run from the law because they discovered you are the "underwear bandit". Or OR your house was run over by a train carrying Giraffes and 3 Orangutans that specialize in the see, hear speak no good signs, even though you clearly live many kilometres away from the closest rail line! So I guess it's safe to send nudes now?

So I guess it's safe to send nudes now? Why would we want to see some nude orange utangs? So I offered to make a Syx costume for this mod It looks pretty interesting to me and I thought it might be a cool little project and I can't face another minute of filters/painttools/layers for at least a week. @Dudemer I'm gonna ping you here to share progress on the outfits so as not to clog up your support thread, Uncle Auds blog is made for clogging. Early first day progress. Spoiler 2

belegost Posted April 11, 2025 Posted April 11, 2025 I'm still away but since I have this thread bookmarked, I have only one question: the comic book thingy. This Apache helicopter needs a source, mate. For science, of course.

The best place to go for manaword comics is their website https://manaworldcomics.com/ But some of their comics have leaked over the years on websites and there is plenty of fan comics like Fenris Comix's https://x.com/FenrisComix/status/1907389966075724165/photo/1 out there.

Dudemer Posted April 14, 2025 Posted April 14, 2025 I'm going to work on a set of piercings for the face and update the preset set with the new Syx preset if you have any piercings you would like me to make send me ref images. Oh and I talked to predetor and he gave me pointers on how to edit the face and have the same face bones I'll have to experiment a little and make a ref shape for his face bones. and on that he doesn't own the Hi poly head and the guy who does isn't active much anymore so that's going to be a pain to find him or contact him.

Also do you have permision to include the cuffs and rings your bundling as assets or do we need to make a bew version of them? they could also do with with some physics right?

I made the earrings off of the Ringed collar from devious devices and the shackles as wall, So you can do whatever you like with them as devious devices is a requirement of the mod. And if you like to make custom Shackles as well I'm okay with that just try to use the editing slider names I made to keep the preset consistent. Edited April 14, 2025 by Dudemer

Ahh sorry I misunderstood, I thought they were made by that guy whos images we used for reference, theres no need to redo them then but I might have a look at giving them some dangilly shaky-shakyness for when Syx is ummmm "moving" her head. 1

Sue_Sakamoto_Takari Posted April 15, 2025 Posted April 15, 2025 An all-in-one mod that doesn't need shlongs of skyrim to run that assigns custom made penises from everything from argonians to dragons, then sets up in MCM a damage threshold for the enemies which you can modify; drop below this health number and a SKSE script kicks in where you get fucked by the enemy: which you can assign if it does a certain amount of damage per thrust or not doing damage via MCM, essentially letting you choose if you want to be fucked to death: and either restrict or allow what by.
