Chronoteeth Posted September 29, 2004 I tried to make a muzzle flash using WW's guide, this is what I got: Pretty crappy huh, well, if you want, you can use it as you wish for any gun you want. I'll post more once I make more. This is in the maps and mods area cause people can use my muzzle flashes in a gun mod if they wish. 0 Share this post Link to post

Nmn Posted September 30, 2004 Ok, because an image gives more than a 1000 words I've decided to do some tweaks. First I've mirrored it. A star of a flash of a light (and that is what a muzzle flash really is) is farely symmetrical. It doesn't shape an X star, thus was mirrored vertically. A flash should be very bright, thus I've used plenty Light tweaks including the Lightness Up Retouch in the middle (that's where it is at it's brightest) Then I removed the dirt around the flash that You made using the lousy density airbrush. I don't know what that is (gun powder? sparks?) but it's not good IMO. It also looks You didn't use the smudge tool that makes an impression of radialy spreading rays-which make a decent "flash star". I hope I helped in some way. 0 Share this post Link to post
Chronoteeth Posted September 30, 2004 This is still quite crappy, but it's at least better than my other one. 0 Share this post Link to post
Nmn Posted September 30, 2004 Random smudging. Try to think of smudges spreading out radially out of the center of Your muzzle flash, but You're on the right track. 0 Share this post Link to post
