[ICONS ] Things I'll miss the most... Harry Potter Saga

mscellym — Sun, 31 Jul 2011 17:54:55 GMT

After a long time away from my community, I decided it was time to bring things back. Things weren't easy for me, but I'm kinda back in track.
So nothing better to celebrate this, than making some icons!
This a 40 icons batch with quotes related to Harry Potter movies/books. It's spoiler-free for those who didn't watch the last movie, so don't be afraid to enter this post.
More details under the cut, I hope you enjoy them!

[PV] KAT-TUN - Love Yourself (short version)

mscellym — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 17:10:15 GMT

So, this is the short version of one of KAT-TUN's new pv, 'Love Yourself'. I'm thinking about adding captures later, but I'm not sure, coz I know somebody will do it eventually and this is not the longer version.
Either way, enjoy it, I already love this song so much. Now let's just wait for D-MOTION. I can't wait!

By the way, I heard on twitter, that maybe D-MOTION PV will also be released today. If so, I'll just edit this post with links for it as well =)

[DVD - youtube rips] KAT-TUN BREAK THE RECORDS TOUR

mscellym — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 21:02:59 GMT

So finally the day almost arrived. The dvd isn't officially released, but it's already on youtube. I managed to download/convert them to you guys and before burning and watching on my dvd, I'm sharing them here. I hope you all like those videos. From the previews, it looks AMAZING.

All credits for those videos originally go to KTBreaktheRecords on youtube, for uploading them. I don't know if the page is still up, but I managed to download/convert these videos before it possibly was deleted from youtube.

Links as usual, are uploaded to multiupload, which gives you a great number of download choices. Please let me know if you need .avi versions of them or if any of those links are broken.

Now, enough with the talking and onto the videos!

Tutorial Number Six - Selective Coloring on Emma Watson

mscellym — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 07:26:18 GMT

It's time for a new tutorial. It's been ages that this community hasn't been updated, but I'm back full-force with a new simple tut. Hope you guys like it!

Step One: Picking a pretty picture

First, let's start with out base. I chose this picture of Emma Watson. I decided not to crop it until I'm done with the final product, since it's easier for me to see how the colors are getting. But that's totally optional.

Step Two: First Selective Color Layer

I know working with Selective Coloring sometimes isn't the best, but it's a way of coming up with pretty results once you feel comfortable playing with all those colors. Go to Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >>Selective Color. For this picture, my settings were:

REDS:
cyan:+100
magenta:0
yellow:+100
black:0

YELLOWS:
cyan:-100
magenta:0
yellow:-100
black:0

NEUTRALS:
cyan: +15
magenta: 0
yellow: +8
black: 0

Pretty dull and dead of colors, right? But let's start chaning it now.

Step Three: Second Selective Color Layer

This will add a bit of color and bring the greens and yellows on the pic. Once again, go to Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >>Selective Color. My settings:

REDS:
cyan: -100
magenta: 0
yellow: +100
black: 0

YELLOWS:
cyan: +100
magenta: 0
yellow: -100
black: 0

NEUTRALS:
cyan: +21
magenta: +10
yellow: +8
black: -18

It looks cute, but still misses some depht and colors. Let's do it now.

Step Four: Color Balance Layer

You already know where to find this? Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >> Color Balance. My settings were:

Midtones:
+17 / +16 / +38

That's better, huh? But I still think Emma's features are mixing with the background, I want them to be slightly apart, after all, she's the subject, not the tree behind her lol.

Step Five: Soft Color Layer

Now it's time to return to the base. Duplicate it and set it to Soft Color

Wow, what a difference, huh? So vibrant now. But I still want Emma's face to glow a bit more. So, I'm going to do a little (optional) trick. If you think your icon looks cool that way, you're done! Just crope it and merge all and you have your final result!

Step Six: Optional Soft Color Layer

Using my already duplicated soft light layer, I duplicate it again. It looks too much, but here's the thing. Go to Filter >> Sharpen and then decrease the opacity to 50%.

And voila! Emma now looks awesome! If you're fine with this, go Ctrl + Shift + E to merge all your layers and then you can crop as you wish.

Other examples using the same tutorial:

Notes: On the thrid icon I used a screen layer after my second soft light one and played with the opacity. On the fourth icon I added a brightness/contrast layer after my second soft light one.

the gazette - burial applicant [pv and captures]

mscellym — Fri, 06 Jul 2007 14:57:35 GMT

Well, I bet we're all excited with the release of "Stacked Rubbish", but we're even more excited to watch the new pv that came out with the limited edition, right?
doobie, over jpopsuki was super kind to upload the video and I'm putting it here in some host sites so you can all download. Along with it, I couldn't let captures out of it.

So, if you're all jumping up and down of curiosity, don't miss what's under the cut, okay?

I swear this was the hardest PV I've ever capped. It's a gorgeous strong song and the PV has a story behind it, but come on, we wanna see the guys on their infamous leather outfit ~~specially Uruha with his short shorts ^__^~~. So sorry if you don't get a massive amount of caps on this one. Still, I hope you enjoy it.

spikiegirl posted her PV rips too, but I decided to post mine as well, since I already had it hosted. ^_^

jrock icons and f.o. banners

mscellym — Sat, 23 Jun 2007 03:18:01 GMT

WHOE, I finally decided to stop making captures and make my own icons. I still have some plans for captures, though, but right now it's time for my icons, from the subjects I claimed over two communities, both being jmusic50 and jrock_50.

Under the cut there's an update and the first batches of 2 artists I claimed and here I leave you a preview:

Yeah, that would be Aoi, from Gazette, Hyde, from L'arc~en~Ciel, and Saga, from alice nine..

Friends Only Banners:
To celebrate this icon post, there are 4 new F.O. banners to match my challenges:
(banner #1 is bigger, I reduced it to fit with the others ^__^)

Resources: They can all be found over the community's profile and on jrock_scans, alice_nine, gazette_daily, larcenciel;

Shameless promotion: I just posted my first batch of icons over pickmybest. I'd love you if you leave your comments there for me! *hugs*

Question of the post: This is for all Gazette fans. I just downloaded the "Meaningless Art That People Showed" file from iluvzkyou and was wondering if you want me to make captures of the concert (since I'll be making for my own icon pleasure XD) or upload them to MF. I'll ask iluvzkyou for permission to re-post the videos since she ripped the file, but the captures question is on. Would you like that?

Little common rules that apply:

I'll never get tired of comments, they're truly love! ^__^

Gackt - RETURNER [PV and captures]

mscellym — Fri, 08 Jun 2007 11:09:03 GMT

Yeah, I did it again. As I promised on the communities I posted before, here are captures from Gackt's latest PV, RETURNER. I'm not head over heels for the man, but I gotta admit I'm quite fond of the PV and the song, it's very emotional. For those who are sucking to make new icons with captures, be my guests.

As usual, everything good goes under a cut! ^_^

86 icons: LOST, Harry Potter and American Idol

mscellym — Sun, 27 May 2007 06:28:18 GMT

Since tomorrow is a big day for me regarding my future, obviously I can't sleep, so with that you get new icons. I decided to try some quote icons on the Harry Potter ones, so if you have any request for a new icon-quote, I'm taking it. The LOST icons are almost with no spoiler, except for the ones regarding Juliet and Jack, but if you watched the season finale, there's no purpose to avoid 'em XD.
So go ahead, enjoy, and wish me luck tomorrow!

Multi-fandom post [84 icons batch]

mscellym — Tue, 22 May 2007 21:57:13 GMT

Texture Set #3 - Line Up

mscellym — Sun, 20 May 2007 04:48:04 GMT

Line textures is the new trend, so I decided to make some and now you'll get 10 icon-sized of them! ^___^

friend, join, pimp, we're open for it!

tutorial #5

mscellym — Tue, 15 May 2007 07:17:33 GMT

Wow, it's been months since I posted a tutorial, but I guess this one is cute, so I had to share with you guys, of course. So I hope you enjoy it!

1. Start with your base. My choice is Evangeline Lilly, which I grabbed from sunny_roads. Crop it the best way you can.

2. My base was pretty much perfect in terms of lighting, so I didn't need to make major changes. I duplicated it and set it to Screen, with a 34% of opacity.

Note: if your base is dark, you might wanna increase the opacity or add another screen layer, but I recommend you do it only when this tutorial is over, so you can have the exact notion of the final coloring you'll get.

3. Now we'll start adding some color to the picture. Let's add a color balance layer to the pic. Go to Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >> Color Balance. My settings:

Midtones:
20/-17/-17

Highlights:
16/-18/-15

Set this layer to Soft Color, with a 39% of Opacity.

4. Repeat step #3, only choosing Selective Color instead of Color Balance. My settings:

REDS:
cyan: -100
magenta: +30
yellow: +100
black: 0

YELLOW:
cyan: -100
magenta: 0
yellow: -49
black: 0

NEUTRALS:
cyan: +14
magenta: -4
yellow: -10
black: +15

5. Add a Hue/Saturation layer, by going to Layer >> New Adjustment Layer >> Hue/Saturation. My settings were:

Master: +10
Red: +8
Yellow: -10
Cyan: -37

6. Another Selective Color layer, we're almost there, I promise!

NEUTRALS:
cyan: 0
magenta: 0
yellow: +8
black: -16

This step won't make much of a difference now, only when we add the last one, so don't kill me XDD

7. Last step, finally, we're going to add yet another Color Blance layer.

Midtones:
-37/+29/+38

Shadow:
-38/+19/+35

And voilà, here's your final result!

Feel free to add textures, brushes and text to make the desired decoration on the icon. The following icons were also made using the same techinique, with only some changes, which means I added some screen layers or changed opacities. Be creative and I'm sure you'll come up with great results!

Basics, of course ^__^ :

New Layout!

mscellym — Thu, 03 May 2007 18:50:15 GMT

Well, I can't say I didn't like my Gazette layout, but I felt like changing a bit.
I realized that I needed to make a Harry Potter layout, so here it is. Yeah, I love Voldie and that picture of him is ~~omgamazing~~ great, don't you think?

I'm still working on proper credits, but the overrides for this layout belong to hellogoodmornin, I just made (major) color changes. ^__^

Oh, this won't be the last post today. Wait for some jrock and maybe my last batch of icons from OotP. \o/

By the way, a super shout out to the new members and affiliates, ♥ to you all! *hugs*

Favorite tutorials list

mscellym — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 23:48:21 GMT

For those interested in some (maybe a LOT) of the tutorials that I use to make some of my icons, here's a big list of them.
Oh and they were NOT made by me!
Notice that there's no hotlink to the images I'm using as thumbnails and there are some friends only communities' tuts.
Hope you enjoy it and sorry for my lack of updates. Real life is being a real pain. But expect new graphics soon! ^__^
