I gave it a go and it didn't turn out too bad actually.
Each piece of road is separate with its own bg layers.
For some reason i couldn't get the GIMP logo the right color. =(
Maybe if i would have changed it before i added it as a new layer?
I bet a cone would have looked cool in this image.

Anyways here it is!


You can download the xcf here: total size is 43.77 mb

Cool! Great job on the road and cracks. Would be awesome if Wilbur was normal colored and sort of misshapen with tiretread marks across him, and yeah, cones would be good! Lol, love the concept!

If it is a VLC cone, it will look great. My fav cone....

haha .. you guys give it a go, i created mine, your turn! =P

I can't, gotta work, lol. Besides, I don't know Gimp well enough to figure out how do do all that!

The folks at Gimper want me to get a tutorial together for it so ill do that and post it here too. =)

ok here it is =P
i know, my cones look ugly...lol

I think it looks great! The cones could use some de-noising but otherwise I think it looks pretty darned good! When I download the file, I will look to see why Wilbur's colors are off.

thanks! =)
I am looking forward to your input.I think if i would have used the curves tool before i transferred wilburs logo in the xcf i would have been able to change the hue to a correct color.

I duplicated the Wilbur layer a couple of times and recolored each Wilbur layer. I experimented with different blend modes and opacities. I also bump mapped the Wilburs using the asphalt.

That is SWEEEET!
I never even thought of using a bump map.
Nice job!
