Gates Glass Window pictures

If you'd like to see an extra large version go here.

I started out with a pic of Bill and a Windows logo.

WIP is here, but it's not complete. I've never tried to make one before and it messed up when I started adding the layers of glass so I stopped the WIP, but it gives you an idea of the process to start a glass image.

Everything is done by hand. The only filter used was a little bevel on the lead lines. I use the line tool to draw all of the lines.

Enjoy!

Excellent work. Masterful technique of stained glass

Sassydeb

Nope. The glass is acutally a pic of glass from sxc blended over my painting, layer upon layer, piece by piece. You can't control shadow and light using a texture filter.

Impressive, must have taken hours. My only advice is to make the watch face one piece of glass. For some reason the X bugs me. But that's just nitpicking. Fantastic work . This should get a mantle piece.

Unbelievable...I'd be ever so interested in the time involved in a project like this. Fabulous..

Sassydeb

Thanks May, I think I probably worked on this one about 8 hours or so.

OK, maybe the X on the watch symbolizes Bills time is gone...so I'll except the X now... . Solid 10 with or without the X. Also if you decide to turn that glass into a texture I would love a copy of the file. That effect would be great for my ceramic ornaments.

Whew...8 hours... I hope you have more uses for this than this contest So, I repeat ... UNBELIEVABLE..this is "out of site"... Showing my age, huh.
