IkeCoast Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 That's completely and utterly non-lore friendly, this in fact takes the lore, throws it into a well, and then tosses a bank of starving piranhas over it. BUT I LOVE IT. I REALLY LOVE IT! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupicatalum Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 I think maybe a dark blue or green version would be great for a mages tower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkeCoast Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 For magik-related things, I personally prefer dark violet-purple. Like the rightmost one here: In my mind, it's the closest shade to Octarine. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IkeCoast Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Yes! You really are getting GIMP's knack! I completely love them, and the Mages Octarine is exactly what I had in mind, you nailed it! Now gotta go to bed. Have fun and keep the great work! I'm starting to think that the Anima Cyrodiili being so flawed was for good. Look at what you're achieving once you had to scrap your previous version. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupicatalum Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 I have decided that as practice I am going to build an evil mage type of hidaway. lets see how this goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IkeCoast Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Be sure it comes out really EVIL. But please, don't be so cheap to fill it with corpses and zombies. Try being more groundbreaking. Or you're fired. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lupicatalum Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) I have some ideas. Dont worry EDIT: I have this texture I made. I am trying to mirror it left to right (or right to left. doesnt matter) I dont want to just flip it but actually have a mirrored copy next to it. I then want to do it top to bottom so that there are four parts all sharing an identical corner. Can you do that in gimp?

IkeCoast Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Yes, you can. First, open the base texture, the one that will form each corner. Then upsize the canvas (not the image, the canvas) to be exactly twice the height and twice the width of the original image. Do not "center" the image on the canvas, be sure it stays in one of the corners. DO NOT RESIZE THE LAYER TO FIT THE CANVAS. Now select the layer the base is on and duplicate it. Use the Flip (yes, Flip, since this is the tool that mirrors the image) either horizontally or vertically. Then use the Align tool to place this second layer in the corresponding corner of the canvas. Repeat until you have all four corners. Now, in the Layers panel, right click one of the layers (no matter which) and select "Combine visible layers", "Expanded as necessay". Now you can resize the whole image to fit the proportions and size your final texture needs to be. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
