"IMPLODE PATTERNS" By Scarlet

Hi All, Scarlet Pirate Voyager here bringing you something new. A very simple process that has alot of different OPTIONS for you to use which will yield alot of different VARIABLES to the looks of your Images.

SKELETAL FORMULA

There are 3 steps with a 4th as an OPTIONAL one in this series developing a technique for you to use

F/X IMPLODE= (POSITIVE NUMBERS)
ie. 2 or 3 or 4.2 or 7, etc

DECORATE/COMPOSITE
- use whatever size Frame/Border you choose in parameter box
- use Frame or Border
- use whatever COMPOSITE EFFECT you choose
- use whatever COLOR you choose in parameter box

**OPTIONAL STEP: TRANSFORM/ROLL
suggest 1/2 the width

COMPOSITE
- use whatever COMPOSITE EFFECT you choose

YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WISH TO AFTERWARDS IN ORDER TO "CLEAN UP" YOUR IMAGE
ie. ENHANCE, DECORATE, EFFECTS, ANNOTATE,etc.

WALLLAH!!!
YOU ARE DONE...
Now wasn't that easy?
Below are some examples that I did. Have fun. This is for Beginners - Advanced Imaging Level

ORIGINAL

F/X IMPLODE=6,

DECORATE/COMPOSITE 0X0
PERU BORDER
COMPOSITE=DIFFERENCE

COMPOSITE/HARDLIGHT WITH ORIGINAL

RESIZE

ENHANCE/SATURATE=120

ENHANCE/BRIGHT=110

DECORATE 7X7 RAISE

ANNOTATE,OUT@ QUALITY=25

"JEZIBELLE"

Another example from above, same graphic

WHEN COMPOSITING I ADDED AFTER FIRST COMPOSITE/HARDLIGHT ANOTHER

COMPOSITE/HARDLIGHT
OFFSET= -80-150 GRAVITY=SOUTHWEST

THEN FINISHED LIKE ABOVE

ORIGINAL

F/X IMPLODE= 4.2

DECORATE/COMPOSITE
BORDER 0X0 PINK
COMPOSITE=HARDLIGHT

ADDED OPTIONAL STEP

TRANSFORM/ROLL +187+0
This is 1/2 of the width

COMPOSITE/MULTIPLY

Finished up with

DECORATE 20X0 WHITE BORDER

DECORATE 10X0 DARKSLATEBLUE BORDER

DECORATE 10X0 PLUM BORDER

DECORATE 20X20 RAISE

DECORATE 10X10 SINK

ENHANCE/SATURATE= 130

EFFECTS/ADAPTIVE SHARPEN 10X10

ENHANCE/BRIGHT=110

TRANSFORM/FLOP

RESIZE

ANNOTATE
OUTPUT @QUALITY=25

"PRINCESS PEACOCK"

WHEN DOING THE IMPLODE, YOU WILL GET DIFFERENT

"PATTERNS"

THEN , WHEN DECORATE/COMPOSITING,
DEPENDING ON WHAT YOUR COLOR CHOICE IS AND COMPOSITE EFFECT,

YOU "COLOR" THOSE "PATTERNS"

THEN COMPOSITE OVER THEM TO SEE WHAT NEW COLORS YOUR ORIGINAL GRAPHIC TAKES ON
THAT IS THE WHOLE PRINCIPAL OF THIS

I sure hope you enjoyed this and can use this Technique. If you have any questions, drop into our Extreme Imaging Ng and just give me a YELL OUT!!!
