āØHello I post art hereāØMulti fandom artāØlet me remind yāall I am a furry tooāØif you want to use my art at all, please ask first and then source me! NO NFT OR AI!!
If you donāt think that the SYMBOL OF PEACE would be on Palestine side, youāre dead fucking wrong !!ļæ¼
(Remember to email/call your reps and donate where you can to families that need it! Mar. 2nd is protest day! Buy e-sims for the Palestinians! Make all might proud!!)
Ok this is about a couple weeks old and hasnāt uploaded it. The only thing specifically I would put him in all the time would be high waisted pants. Gotta see that lil booty that I know her got (thanks to all might bc fuuuuuuuu)
This drawing is of smite aka villain Yagi.
(Ps also itās not my fave sketch but i liked the idea of it tbh. I would redraw it now if I could)
Like obvs I know heās a grown adult, but if I was dating him, heād be dressed so nicely most of the time bc Iād love him and if he got money, might as well take advantage of that.
I need to emphasize something about myself. I will and always be a hoe for self insert art but also I feel like barfing when I see my own finished products bc I feel like everyone elseās stuff is so sweet and I feel like punching a wall bc Iām a big simp and have remnants of ye olde days of when you were put down for self insert stuff
This is a method I started using when NFTs were on the rise - thieves would have to put actual work into getting rid of the mark - and one that I am now grateful for with the arrival of AI. Why? Because anyone who tries to train an AI on my work will end up with random, disruptive color blobs.
I can't say for sure it'll stop theft entirely, but it WILL make your images annoying for databases to incorporate, and add an extra layer of inconvenience for thieves. So as far as I'm concerned, that's a win/win.
I'll be showing the steps in CSP, but it should all be pretty easy to replicate in Photoshop.
Now: let's use the above image as our new signature file. I set mine to be 2500 x 1000 pixels when I'm just starting out.
Note that your text should not have a lot of anti-aliasing, so using a paint brush to start isn't going to work well with this method. Just use the standard G-Pen if you're doing this by hand, or, just use the text tool and whichever font you prefer.
Once that's done, take your magic wand tool, and select all the black. Here are the magic wand settings I'm using to make the selections:
All selected?
Good.
Now, find a brush with a scattering/tone scraping effect. I use one like this.
You can theoretically use any colors you want for this next part, but I'd recommend pastels as they tend to blend better.
Either way, let's add some color to the text.
Once that's finished,
You're going to want to go to Layer Property, and Border Effect
You'll be given an option of choosing color and thickness. Choose black, and go for at least a 5 in thickness. Adjust per your own preferences.
Now create a layer beneath your sig layer, and merge the sig down onto the blank layer.
This effectively 'locks in' the border effect, which is exactly what we want.
Hooray, you've finished your watermark!
Now let's place that bad boy into your finished piece.
You'll get the best mileage out of a mark if you can place it over a spot that isn't black of white, since you'll get better blending options that way. My preference is for Overlay.
From here, I'll adjust the opacity to around 20-25, depending on the image.
If you don't have a spot to use overlay, however, there's a couple other options. For white, there's Linear Burn, which imho doesn't look as good, but it still works in a pinch.
And for lots of black, you have Linear Light
Either way, you're in business!
EDIT since this has escaped my usual circles, and folks aren't as familiar with my personal usage:
An example of one of my own finished pieces, with watermark, so you can see what I mean about 'relatively unobtrusive'-- I try to at least use them as framing devices, or let them work with the image somehow (or, at the very least, not actively against it).
I know it's a bummer for some people to "ruin" their work with watermarks, which is part of the reason I developed this mark in particular. Its disruption is about as minimal as I can make it while still letting it serve its intended purpose.
There's other methods, too, of course! But this is the one I use, and the one I can speak on. Hope it helps some of you!
