Bender looks a bit off, and the Brain's meant to have purple around it, not blue. However, other than that, they're clool 

[Reply #361 on:]

Yeah, I have a lot of trouble with Bender- it's mainly his eyes that confuse me. Also I'm a bit colourblind between purple and blue so you'll have to forgive me on that.

here's the other two-

I messed up the PE logo on this one, which is more obvious on the larger version- http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~pennck/grabs/planetexpressbig.gif

Cool stuff, SomeOne.

BTW, It's me! Alpha Homega! Remember me? I'm back... in Pog form.   

[Reply #363 on:]

Wow, they're good.

I've made my first scan in about 4 months. I'm actually a bit disappointed. It didn't turn out as well as I would have liked.

[Reply #364 on:]

Yeh, lines are kinda, squared?
What program do you use?

[Reply #365 on:]

not your best scan ever, but cool to see you back to scanning 

[Reply #366 on:]

A tad messy, but still better than I could do 

[Reply #367 on:]

scanning rocks! I tried it and I love it! Yesterday I made 1 scan and today I made 4

Here are my first 5 scans:


The Planet Express Ship taken from "The Series Has Landed"


Kif replying to zapp's command from "A Flight to Remember"


Bender saying "Those Guys suck!" in... ummm... I don´t remember which episode


Fry's unbelieveably cool looking mean look at "Lesser of two Evils"


Zoidberg saying "There was only enough to fill the tub half-way" in "Where the buggalo roam"

They are also available as wallpapers in BIG resolution (1600x1200)

Tell me your opinion!

[Reply #368 on:]

Hey Henrik, nice to see a couple of cool scans! Nice work!

[Reply #369 on:]

Very well done. Which program do you use to make them?

[Reply #370 on:]

Those are all cloolsome, especially the Planet Express Ship and Kif 

[Reply #371 on:]

I use PowerDVD to grab frames and then Adobe Photoshop 7 (a very good program indeed!) to make the scans

BTW: What´s the deal with "cloolsome"? Everyone seems to use it or it´s just you posting very much...

[Reply #372 on:]

He's a trendsetter that one.

Nice scans. A little edgy but very nice.

[Reply #373 on:]

He used to say "clool" all the time, but people got pissed. So he made up "cloolsome."

I'm not too familiar with Photoshop 7. Does it let you draw Bezier curves? 'Cause I'd say that'd look better than what I'm assuming are freehand scans.

[Reply #374 on:]

I'm not sure... I haven't found/needed that kind of option. I'm sure it's somehow possible...

EDIT: What I have used is the brush tool. by holding shift down it makes a straight line between the old line ending and the new spot. That may have caused the edginess but it´s very useful, easy and fast to use.

It most definitely does. Just take a look at any of my scans. It's, in my opinion, the most valuable tool in the entire program. 

It's one of the options under the "Pen Tool".

[Reply #376 on:]

one of the options... which one? 

and how does it work, I just got curious!

[Reply #377 on:]

Can someone explain UBB code to me? I made scans but I don't know how to post them.

[Reply #378 on:]

1.you must have the image on a website.

2.click on "reply"

3.Then click on the little link "picture" under the bunch of smileys

4.then replace the asterisks with your picture link

1. Select the proper Pen Tool:



2. Select "Paths" and "Pen Tool" from the new menu:



3. Click at the beginning of the curve you want to scan and the click and hold at another point of your curve. Notice how the curve changes form as you move the mouse. Spend some getting used to how the bezier curve behaves.

When you're satisfied with the curve, you release the mouse button again. You then either continue the current curve (click on some third point) or stop here:



4. You now have a "path" that can be used for many a purpose. Select the tool you want to apply to the path (for example the "Pencil Tool" ) and make sure the tool is properly configured.

5. Hit enter and watch how Photoshop draws along the curve.

6. Lather, rince, repeat:

Some have to figure it out themselfs and some just gets a tutorial.

[Reply #381 on:]

OMG! Thanks for the nice tutorial! I tried it and it really works great!

[Reply #382 on:]

Well, here is my first shot at a scan of any sort.  It based on a freehand sketch of Fry I did a few weeks ago that was taken from SP3K.

Yeh that's what I thought. I use Photoshop, but I'm confined to a laptop without a mouse, so touchpad it is.

[Reply #384 on:]

Great Stuff people. What the hell, i was bored! Everyone get's bored. I was so bored i didn't even fully complete this scene!   

[Reply #385 on:]

i know its uggly but anyway

[Reply #386 on:]

[Smitty]I can't see....pretty though...[/Smitty]

[Reply #387 on:]

Another from me...not the greatest, but im still learning.

[Reply #388 on:]

Hey, that's not bad.

[Reply #389 on:]

Great scans, SomeOne and Henrik. Looks cool.

Also nice work by Yinger. A few jagged lines here and there, but a re-size should clear them away. Keep it up.

And a random one from me (I actually have no strong feelings one way or the other about Shatner, it just looked funny, and I love Leela passing out ass-kickings):



Screw bezier-lines and Photoshop, Flash 5 all the way.   

[Reply #390 on:]

YEAH,
Flash 5 rocks,
like ya PIC

[Reply #391 on:]

Cloolsome scans everyone, and I especially like the scene you chose, Teral. It looks even more effective with just a white background 

[Reply #392 on:]

Yep. It looks kool without a background, a outstanding scan form a kool episode.

Okay i was bored:

[Reply #393 on:]

Good stuff everyone.  Here's another from me...Zoidberg's afoot!

[Reply #394 on:]

Wow Yinger36 your stuff is turning out pretty cool, nice work!

[Reply #395 on:]

It's really good, but not great. But I say that in the nicest way. If I meant it badly, I'd mockingly attack you.

[Reply #396 on:]

More awesome scans, with cloolsome expressions 

[Reply #397 on:]

I'm still not completely satified about how this one turned out, but this is as good as it's going to get for now:


"Aw, he looks like a little insane, drunken angel!"

[Reply #398 on:]

I like the gradients and 3D effects. The blur is also nice.

Mighty impressive to say the least. Also it's good to see you've entered the scan contest 

[Reply #399 on:]

whoa yeah. That looks pretty neat, it'l look great as a wallpaper aswell.     

Let's see scenes, scenes, wallpapers....
