My Desktop of the Week #6
by Dark Light in , ,

As promised, my IronMan HUD interface upgrade version is completed at last. It took me a lot of time to finish this. Please do comment on it, 'coz I wanted to improve it until it is perfect.


And of course, new theme...

Plus, I am now the proud owner of Adobe Illustrator CS3. Although it takes time to learn how things works in it, it does paid me very well. The picture below is my first try to make a design using Illustrator with the help of Photoshop. Turns out it is handy after all...

Although it looks very nice, it's just because I followed the tutorials downloaded in the internet. Hehehe...

Fresh from the Oven

This is my new artwork. It took me the whole day to finish this (actually it's only about 10 hours). I started this in the evening (drawing phase) and the long coloring phase in the night until now (It's 2.30 a.m.).

This is actually my first run after reading tutorials on how to color artwork in the web. It very confusing (a little but very-very confusing if you are a beginner). So, whaddya think? Comments and suggestion are welcome!!!



  1. The original sketch.
  2. Adjusted level. The guide for coloring process.
  3. Added base color.
  4. Added Depths and Highlights (the shadows).
  5. Added album cover (Muse's Black Holes & Revelations), button color, and hair highlights.

Adding background (the original sketch).

Adding background (people on shopping complex).

I'm getting sleepy... Ahh... Zzz... Hah! Forget something...

How to Make a Simple Yet Beautiful Background
by Dark Light in

Hi! As for today, I've decided to teach you on how to use your Adobe Photoshop...
It's best to use Adobe Photoshop CS2 or Cs3 as they are the latest versions.

Start by applying a 'green to light green' gradient in linear mode.

Duplicate the layer. Press Ctrl+T and scale down vertically.

Press Ctrl+T. Right Click and select Warp. Select "Flag" style from the preset warp shapes. Apply settings as shown.


Press Ctrl+T and scale up.


Duplicate the layer and change the layer mode to "Soft Light". Move this layer a pixels upwards.


Similarly create more shapes randomly with different color modes.

Select and merge all the layers except background layer. Duplicate the layer and move it to the top. Change the layer mode to "Soft Light".

Duplicate the layer again. Press Ctrl+T. Right click and select rotate 90°. Change the layer mode to "Linear Burn".

Move this layer to left edge as shown.

You can also use other color, use your own creativity to make it more interesting... I hope you'll like it. Enjoy!
