Hi Chris...This is great. I just stumbled on your website from a screencasters website with a guy named heathenx. I have been looking for a way to make splatters on my own so that I am not copying others hard work. Would you be willing to share how you made these? Thanks!
It is easy. Just play with real and thick dark color or black watercolor (for splatters) on a plain white paper. See here: [link] Then use Inkscape or GIMP to transform it into a nice resource.
Hi Chris, So you are saying that you made those splatters with real water color on paper then scanned it into your cpu and opened it and created a vector out of the image? If so, sounds pretty simple but I was hoping there would be a simple way to do so just by manipulating inkscape a bit! I am also trying to figure out how use tiled clones to make half-tones. I watched a tutorial but it doesn't explain to me 2 things. 1. Why do I need to blur an image in the background first and 2. How can I take an image that has color and get each half tone to be the color of the image it is "taking place" of? Any thoughts? Thanks!
These are excellent, I had been thinking of making something like this to use in another project for the past few weeks. I might just use one of these and credit you. Thanks a lot
