I want to create a clock with a frosted glass look and maybe some icicles or ice as well. It is for a project i am doing. The theme is "magic of a moment" and my idea is that a frozen clock would represent in a moment, time seems to slow down/freeze.
Is illustrator the best to do this or should i use photoshop?
a realistic method for making frosted glass. The problem that i have is i am ainterior designer and want to produce large panes (or smaller sections on larger panes) of frosted glass in an interior enviroment. At the moment i work in 3ds MAX creating the glass in there and apply a blur to it in photoshop. Iknow you can prob create frosted glass in 3ds MAX but it can be quite render heavy..

I am new to gimp but have been looking around at different walkthroughs. I must be missing somthing though because I am not getting what I would expect.
How I am trying to do this is I created 3 layers a light blue, white and alpha channel(transparency layer).
I adjusted the opacity down of the white and blue layers and then merged all 3 and again tried to adjust the opacity to acheive the effect. However I am a million miles off the mark.
How can i make frosted glass effect like a independent layer, which i can use with any picture. It should look like smart object with smart filter, but i won't convert every picture to smart object, because my psd document include many picture. Anyway i will be able to use this filter on any place for every picture.

I've added every effect to make it look like there is an outside and its speeding by, but it looks like there's nothing inbetween the man and the outside.
The outside is actual filmed B-roll of trees going by and is not a keyframed picture zooming by.
How do i make a "glass window" in adobie Elements... something I can bring into my project and but inbetween the man and the outside.
I do not have adobie After Effects. The only adobie Program i have is Elements 11.
I've looked online and can't find any pictures that work, and any search comes up with making a glass ball that magnifies the images inside of it.
I am making the hands of a clock with tick marks held in a particular spot with an invisible bounding box. When I export as a png the bounding box disappears and all I have is the tick mark. Maybe a boundindg box isn't the correct description? I have made the hand using the rectangle shape with no fill and no line. The tick mark is contained within this space. But somehow when it is exported using png the invisible containment disappears. I need that to hold my tick mark in place as the hand goes around the clock.

The hands of the clock are invisible but a bounding box for the small rounded rectangle. It won't stay straigh either. I have tried everything I can paths, etc.

I have created glass with the slate material editor, used specular 100, glossiness 80 in the Blinn dropdown. Ued mental ray. Looks good, very glassy. Now I want to put a pattern on the glass, like a silouette, only that it is also translucent, part of the glass, as though it was an "etched glass" pattern on the glass. Do i make the pattern into some kind of "mask"? and lay it over existing glass?
I am trying to create 3D models that will be printed using a high quality 3D printer in Ultra Frosted Detail.
I am knowledgeable on how to draw my shapes and extrude them to 3D, but am curious is if I need to change the shapes to "solids" for the printer to print it that way? For instance, I have a model train car that I am working on, and I have attached the file below. What I did with this basically is drew the shapes and extruded them to the thickness that I needed (Measurements are actual size and will need scaled down after the model is complete).
So If I need to make them a solid, how do I accomplish that, and then join the separate objects into one complete model ready for printing?
P.S. If you need any details about this project, basically I am composing a railroad flat car, and have built the four sides as well as the top deck as separate pieces and will combine them all together as one.
2D Base Objects: This is the basic pieces in 2D wire that are drawn to life scale and have not yet been extruded to the proper width.
3D Rendering: This is a model i drew up before I realized I might need to make the pieces solids for 3D.
I'm doing a series of videos for artists for practicing gesture drawing. They basically consist of 1 or 2 minute poses interspersed with 30 second pauses. The poses are drawn from my portfolio of model photography I've build up over many years, so they are stills. The 30 second pauses are just so the artist can flip to another sheet of paper, sharpen a pencil or shake his arms out.
When the pause is on the screen it will just display a generic background with some text showing which pose is coming up and a boilerplate copyright notice. But I thought it would be nice to have a little countdown timer being shown during the pause so the artist can see how much time remains before the next pose starts. What's a good way to integrate a little animated timer or clock that doesn't look too amateurish?
I want to animate my clock hands backwards but i have tried to use the select and rotate button from the use selection center(centre)then turning on the autokey but it's not working the handles don't stay aligned.

Before I started looking, I assumed this font would be the easiest to find (not to mention free!), but where, oh where, is this font hiding? (Without having a big ole "$99 for download" tag attached to it that is!)
I'd really appreciate it if anyone has a link to a site with a free download of a Digital Clock font.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue with the save feature in Illustrator CS5.5 (15.1.0 for mac). Typically when making changes to design files, we will save the Illustrator file first, then save as a PDF proof to send to the client. Our issue is that the file appears to save correctly, but when opening the Illustrator document a few days later, we find that only SOME of the changes were saved. Now keep in mind that I've only saved the document once, why would only a few changes save from one single save point?
On top of this, our PDFs come out without any problems, and all changes save just fine.
This is a major issue for us, as we need to be able to trust that ALL previous changes save, as we use the Illustrator document to create subsequent versions. We don't have the time to check through every minute detail to make sure that the file saved properly. This should be a very basic function of the program, yet it is creating big time headaches for us.
Could it be that we are saving as PDF first, then as AI? Would that somehow affect the ability of Illustrator to save properly?
