okay so lately i've into arts
i've been seeking for help from some artist, and some of them tell me to post here for cnc

so here's my texture (in progress):


CnC is REALLY APPRECIATED

The design is interesting, I hate the pink and blue colors you picked.
The pink bit in the middle is what I'm assuming is the eyes, feels
way to big to me personally. I would shrink it a bit since mapping
is going to stretch it to hell. In game pics please?

Yeah, in-game pics would be nice.

The texture looks nice so far, though a bit smudgy. I like the colors, but i rarely see textures with those colors looking good in-game.

Yeah, i just tried it ingame and im not a big fan of it
any tips for shadings and making my textures more bold?

*made another one

um
Pick a dark color that matches what your trying to shade( eyedropper tool on the color your gonna shade) go to your color picker and just drag it down till its dark enough for you
then paint over the area you want to shade, go to filter, blur, Gaussian blur, and just drag the slider everywhere until u get something that looks reasonable, you can then use blend modes and opacity to get something you like


EDIT: you have gimp, Idk how to gimp, only photoshop, I'm sorry :c ignore everything I just said

also paint sharp edges not blurred edges :c

Its all vvery blurry try using a harder brush and or not use the smudging tool.
Generall design seems okay.

how can i use a harder brush?
(what the tool settings)

By harder brush i mean a brush with a higher oppacity.

can u tell me the settings on ur brush that u use?
since i used gimp aswell
