Description ok i think this is my fav work ever. i made it for a character of mine, so i'm really attached to this picture lol.

i had to de-saddle and de-bridle it, which was the biggest challenge. but it was worth it cause i don't think you'd be able to tell there used to be a rider on him.

lol its not something you can learn overnight, takes lots of practice. but its called photo-manipulation. you can look up some tutorials in the search bar at the top of the page, type in something like "horse manip tutorial" or "manipulation tutorial". hope that helps. you can't leave something important like a cover for a last minute thing, you can always just buy a stock photo to use.

Okay thank you! Your really good with making the horses, is it possible you could make one for me? I have a photo you could use that you could turn into a animation but I have somethings that if you could add that would be wonderful. If you could make a photo for me, it'd mean so much!!!

hehe i agree. i think horses look best natural

Fangthorn In reply to venomxbaby [2012-04-26 18:43:00 +0000 UTC]

Yes, especially when you put an inexperienced rider on them who is bouncing all over the place on the poor horses back. lol

Fangthorn In reply to venomxbaby [2012-05-02 06:20:51 +0000 UTC]

it just makes the horse work harder. Personally if I was the horse I would buck the bouncing rider off. Then they could bounce up and down on the ground. lol

yeah it was a nice pic, but i have a feeling it wasnt stock... back then before i knew better

peachesrox In reply to venomxbaby [2010-11-10 11:48:43 +0000 UTC]

probably.
Believe it or not, when I first started making manips, I think I used like 2 images that were not stock, either then that it was all stock- but I didn't know about adding credit. But that was a long time ago.

venomxbaby In reply to peachesrox [2010-11-10 20:24:57 +0000 UTC]

yeah thats what i used to do. i mean as kids we didn't realize much, and besides back then no one cared about copyrights. everyone used pics from photographers like robert vavra all the time. its funny how it was ok then, but now more people in the horse/sim/rpg world realize there are rules to follow.

peachesrox In reply to venomxbaby [2010-11-10 20:32:08 +0000 UTC]

exactly! I used to think, alright, I can make a manip-time to slap on any pictures together that are pretty!
Not anymore xD

same here. I came across one that I used to think was a 'master piece'. Its choppy, no shadows, lighting in all the wrong places, and smudged all over xD

venomxbaby In reply to peachesrox [2010-11-11 16:04:27 +0000 UTC]

ehehe i know what you mean. the first 'manip' i ever made was a scan of one of my model horses into the scanner with some text added in the old paint program, now thats classic eh?

peachesrox In reply to venomxbaby [2010-11-11 20:24:29 +0000 UTC]

you betcha! I used to think that once you added text it became a 'manip'

Awww, well thanks sweetie but I do think your stuff is far more superior then my own is! I\I haven't used photoshop in about a month and a half or so 'cause of my hard drive. But I do love your stuff, it has such a beautiful and unique look to it!

ooh i see.. that sucks. i cant keep out of PS haha. well i know how that feels, when i just started up again a few months ago i felt really rusty, so i didnt think my stuff was any good until i made one like every day and felt confident lol. but everyone's got their own style. kudos for variety. but i cant wait to see what you make next, if u make any soon.. let me know
