New script – String Bows

It is fairly easy to use a ready-made bow and maybe colorize it, but you still end up with the same shape, every time. Wouldn't you like to get more variety?

This script will generate slightly different shapes of a bow, and since it will use any picture tube you select, it will give you a lot of versatility. You can use any of the string picture tubes or rope picture tubes in the store. You can also try to use other tubes like pipe cleaners or garlands for different effects. The zip file will also include one greyscale string picture tube for you to use.

In order to win this product, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us where you typically get your bows when you use some (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

As a sample for this script, I ran it and used three different metallic rope tubes. You get three bows, about 800-900 pixels wide so you can resize them if needed.

New tubes – Variegated Strings

It might be fairly easy to find single color tubes to create a string. In fact, there is one that comes (or came) by default with PaintShop Pro. Strings with two colors can also be found (in the store) but they are much less common. But for variegated strings or ropes, this one is a first as far as I know.

As you draw with these tubes, the colors will change as if you were using traditional variegated wool to knit a project.

For a sampler, I created a rainbow element that you can use with your projects and a frame using several colors of those variegated tubes. Each element is in PNG format.

New Product – Rope tube

cass-Ropes1

This week, my new release is NOT a script, as you might expect, but it is still a PSP specific product: a set of 10 tubes. If you are not too familiar with tubes, you might have seen some in your PSP, and they look like individual pictures that you can place here and there on a layout or other montage. These tubes are more than that. Although they are made of individual images, they are made to follow wherever you draw, and create a rope along the way. You can hand draw any line, or apply this string along a path or even around a vector shape for a regular look.

You get 10 individual files, in 10 different colors. If you want to de-saturate them, you can. You can draw loops, bows, strings, doodles, etc.

You can get this set of 10 tubes in either one of my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win this set, go add your name to this thread at DST forum.cass-Ropes1-sample

If you are still unsure about how good these will really look, or if you are not a PSP user and would still like to use something like that, i made a simple hand drawn alphabet. You get 26 individual PNG files for the 26 basic capital letters.

So, what do you think of this? Did you notice that it is called Braided ropes #1. Well, in the near future, other sets of tubes will be released, but i am not telling you when it will happen. You will have to follow this blog, or follow me on twitter to find out!
