Excellent Wooble, You did a very nice job as usual.

Thanks Molly, it actually looks better as an xcf at 200%. It loses a bit of definition when viewed at 100% . I must say , I think the yellow is a " bitch " of a colour to get right. I have two monitors and the yellows look entirely different on the screens, Much more so than the blues and reds. Also I have trouble distinguishing between pure whites and light yellows (my eyes), so although Drac's instructions get you close to the mark, I find that I always want to see if I cant get it just a little bit better and if there is not a better combination, of layers and then slowly you end up with a mess and have to start all over again. Still the exercise here is to teach you how to combine layers to achieve a result. There are probably quite a few more combinations that will give the same result. You'll note that for each colour there are different combinations that work best for each colour because the colours behave differently on a screen or monitor when mixed with layer combinations.
Cheers Wbool63

Thanks wbool, I won't be doing the tutorial any further but you are right about the combinations. It was a good experience...and also a lot of work to put into a tutorial like that. Thanks again Drac.

I re-arranged my layers and here is the outcome of it. I like it better. Mine looks different cuz I don't have the voronoi script.

I found the location for the script written for one type of indicator light.
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5585&hilit=indicator+lights

Could have swore there was another one.

Code: Select all

;;; Script  : Metal-Wurx-Indicator-Lights-Gimp-2-6.scm 
;;; Author  : Anonymous 
;;; Date    : August 2012 
;;; Revision: v-01 

Those scripts were written by: Anonymous, huh? That's kinda odd.

GIMP Chat's secret coder. :lol

The conversation must have went something like: "Sssssshhhhhhhhh. Don't tell anybody I write scripts". :mrgreen:

The coder was a friend of mine and I was beta testing for Gimp 2.6. I don't know why he wanted secrecy but that is his decision and I respect it and I think everybody else should.

I assumed it was some kind of joke because because later in the script, it reads..

Code: Select all

"b10h4z4rd" 
"b10h4z4rd" 
"August 2012"

If b10h4z4rd wrote the script then b10h4z4rd might now get credit for a great script thanks to you Tux :mrgreen:

Well, I just re-posted what was in the script for all to see.

The Metal Wurx scripts are very good except for the dependencies that I'd love to see removed but without Draconian being around to explain how he created the patterns and gradients it would not be easy (i also get caught out by forgetting to load RobA's 'scale pattern' with indicator lights)
