Bill Kaulitz icon tutorial. (for trickstars)

2007-11-20T16:15:33Z

2nd tutorial today, 3rd tutorial in all. This icon was requested by the oh so lovely trickstars (XD Who's first impression was "OH NO! IS THIS SELECTIVE COLORING!?" [it's not]). I worked this for her using the features in her program, which is Photoshop Elements 5.0. It uses levels so it may be translated, just not by me.

(So this time I had my Elements and PSP lovelies in mind~♥. Can levels be done in PSP? o.O)

Icon tutorial features Bill Kaulitz of the German band Tokio Hotel...and a sexy mofo at that.

From to

Features in this tutorial:
~ Fill layers
~ Levels
~ Could be translated, just not by me

#1 Icon tutorial. [Requested by Nikki VK~<3]

2007-11-09T23:02:36Z

This tutorial was requested by my wifey Nikki VK. This icon is no good but o.o;;

From to

Made in Photoshop 7. Uses no selective coloring, curves, etc. Just basic coloring.

So o.o *cough* .__. mm. I took this base from miseryymachine's batch. Do not duplicate it :D weird, yeah. So, anyway...

Make a new layer and fill with with #000c38 and set it to Exclusion and leave it at 100%.

Now, make another fill layer and flood fill it with #0036ff and set it to Exclusion at 40%.

Now, if your icon looks too bright or uneven, duplicate the base, destasturate it (Ctrl+Shift+U) and bring it to the top at Softlight 100% (or whatever is good for your image).

Looking good? Alright, we're almost done. Next take this texture made by ???? and paste it on your image and set it to Overlay 100%.

Add some brushes or some text, whatever it is you like ^.^

There you go! I hope I was helpful! Please show me your creations ^^;;

Fic requests OPEN.

Oi~. So I made a blog crew out of pure boredom! In this blog crew you can claim anything Asian. Meaning: Japanese, Korean, Taiwanese, Chinese, Cambodian, etc. Meaning: Singers, band members, models, actresses, anime characters...ANYTHING ASIAN!

Claim up to 2 Asian centered things/people, mmkay? Unless you're on my friends list, then it's three :3;;

And, please, when claiming include their nationality? @.@ plz&thn

When claiming, please wait for me to reply so I can add your name and claim to the list and then you can get the claim link to post on your profile or where ever ^-^

Also: You can claim up to 2 people who are in the same band. :3
A quick how to: Let's say you're in love with Lee Sungmin. So, comment this post and say "May I claim Lee Sungmin of Super Junior?" and, if he isn't already taken, I'll put up on the list that Lee Sungmin is property of you and you get a cool little link that shows everyone that. Fun, right?

CAUTION: The list is highly unorganized right now. =X I'll take care of that ~~when I'm not so damn lazy~~ soon.
Enjoy!

Understand.

2007-10-04T02:52:31Z

Title: Understand.
Author: schrei_vox
Rating: PG.
Pairing: Hankyung/Henry
POV: 3rd
Summary: "They don't like me..."
Status: Complete.
Disclaimer: I don’t own anything. ‘Nuff said.
Author Notes: I though there should be a little Hankyung/Henry lovin'. Amirite?

"They don't like me..."

Hankyung blinked and turned his milky brown eyes to Henry, head tilted.

"What?"

Henry sighs, “You know what I mean, hyung..."

"No, I don't."

Henry is young and naïve and tired of being lied to, this Hankyung knows. Hankyung knows exactly what he's talking about, he just chooses not to understand.

Understanding means having to explain.

Henry turns his twinkling eyes to Hankyung, his face sullen and fatigued, arms draped loosely at his sides. Hankyung notices how the moonlight hits him at the exact right angle that makes him look angelic. Beautiful, even.

Henry purses his lips in thought then sighs, catching on to Hankyung's little game, "The fans, the other Super Junior members...why don't they like me?"

Hankyung sighs and looks over the balcony, down at the bright lights and classic sounds that make Seoul. He thinks a moment, then turns back to Henry.

"They like you."

He can feel the lie staining lips and dripping down his chin, burning him like acid. But he keeps a straight face. He's expert at this.

Henry, though, isn't buying it.

"I heard Heechul talking to Donghae about how I'll split up the band. They all completely ignore me, the members I mean. And I keep seeing comments on the 'net how I'll ruin everything." His voice is small and shaky and Hankyung almost feels disgusted about how easily he’s breaking down.

Hankyung doesn't know what to say, so he pulls Henry into a tight hug and breathes him in, breathes in the stress, the abandonment, the hurt. He runs his fingers through Henry's hair, not really knowing if the gesture was soothing but knowing he had to do something.

"Why don't they like me?"

"I like you."

"Am I not good enough?"

"I think you're perfect."

Hankyung's words are a collection of useless syllables that drop from his lips and topple to the floor, forming a pool he's slowly drowning in. Henry just sobs on his shoulder, so young, so naive, so tired, and Hankyung just kisses the top of his head. He pretends the kisses are magic and are slowly dissolving all Henry's pain and worry and replacing them with warmth and happiness.

He untangles the webs surrounding Henry, he drains away the sadness.

Henry cries. Hankyung pretends.

Several minutes (hours? years?) pass before Henry lifts himself up to see Hankyung, not bothering in pulling away from the warmth radiating of his hyung’s body, and turn those powerfully twinkling eyes at him.

“You like me?”

“I like you.”

“You think I’m good?”

“I think you’re perfect.”

They stare at each other, breathing coming out in small clouds as the temperature drops, but both boys feeling warmer than ever. Hankyung thinks that if he were to move down a few inches his lips would meet Henry’s. But only for a second. Only for a second.

“If you like me…and you think I’m perfect…then nothing else matters.” Henry says finally, nodding to himself for confirmation before settling his head back on Hankyung’s shoulder.

Hankyung sighs out shakily and wraps his arms around Henry. He knows that if the other Super Junior members were to come out here and see Henry on his lap, clinging on to him for dear life, he’d have to explain (he hated explaining). He knows that it’s getting colder and that they should go inside. He knows his heart shouldn’t be beating rapidly agaisnt his chest like this.

Hankyung knows.

But, see, he doesn’t care.
