I found the tutorial at this archived website, wingimp.org; the other tutorials are worth exploring. Note that at the left top of the page there are 4 pages of tutorials to browse.

I've updated the tutorial to work in GIMP 2.6. I cleaned the background from the object used in the tutorial and attached it if you'd like to download it. With the exception of my final results at the top of the tutorial, all of the images are the original images from the tutorial.

You can go to Rod's tutorial here to make your own object. Check out his method of corrosion while you're there.

Rusty Objects

Image


  1. Draw an object in a transparent layer. Name the layer #1.

    Image

  2. On layer #1 use: Filters > Noise > Spread (h=5,v=5).
  3. Duplicate layer #1 to make layer #2
  4. On layer #2 use: Filters > Blur > Gaussian Blur (h=3,v=3).
  5. Create a white layer, name it bump. Move it below layer #2 and merge layer #2 down to the bump layer.

    Image

  6. Create new layer. Name it plasma.
    Filters > Render > Clouds > plasma - use default settings. (I increased the Turbulence to 1.5 and clicked New Seed a few times.)
    Desaturate it: Colors > Desaturate > Luminosity setting

    Image

  7. Make sure you have the plasma layer selected.
  8. Change the FG color to ff8f07
  9. Select the Bucket tool.
  10. Use these settings in the Bucket tool dialog:
    Mode: Multiply
    Opacity: 80.2
    Foreground color ticked
    Threshold: 191.5
  11. Click in the image to fill it with the Bucket tool.

    Image

    Image

  12. Select the plasma layer.
    Filters->Map->Bump Map and bump map the plasma layer to itself.
    Elevation = 11

    Image

  13. Filters->Map->Bump Map and bump map the plasma layer to the bump layer.
    Azimuth = 255
    Elevation = 45
    Depth = 3

    Image

  14. Select layer #1.
    Right click on layer #1 then -> Alfa to Selection
    Select > Grow and grow the selection 1.
    CTRL + i to invert the selection.

    Image

  15. Select the plasma layer.
  16. Press the Delete key.

Image

Original object attached.

Caught you red-handed playing in GAP, pogogogo and constructing a perpetual motion object.

Wow, very nice. :coolthup

By the way, HTML tags do not work in here. To center you need to either select the object you want centered and click the center button at the top of the post entry box or click the center button and put your link between the tags.

I got bored and looked for something to do. I haven't seen this one for a while, so I did it. Still being bored I just kept playing and got this weird animation.

I made my gear using Rod's tutorial, then used color #52cfad for the copper corrosion color. I used a smoke brush to erase some of the verdigris so some of the copper color showed through from the gear.

I was going to try and remember to make noise > spread less so it wasn't so rough around the edges and forgot. :roll:

Was it you that had the sig line
