"Cyborg" GIMP and Splash Screen

The Warrior · **Joined:** Jun 02, 2013 **Posts:** 2090

Was using the Bevel Reflect Logo plug-in with some new maps I made, different layer modes, etc. Anyways, this first rendering kind of reminded me of something cyborgian.

EDIT: Adding an animated splash for those interested:

Thanks Matera, appreciate it. Here's another I did. I got lazy, and didn't do any backgrounds. Click for clarity:

That sure is one of the craziest looking fonts I've seen yet. All well done. Also looks like you have yourself some nice E-Maps.

If you downloaded my latest emaps, you have the same ones I have to create this. Layer mode is key.

Added a splash screen to the OP, if interested.

Thanks Warrior, it looks cool. I just picked it up and I'll add it to my Gimp splashes folder.

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I must admit, especially with the colored ones though, I see dragons more than cyborgs

Thanks, appreciate it. As I said in the OP, just the first one reminded of the cyborg thing. Sorta bio-mechanical.

@Warrior, I like the top one very much, it looks like antique Metal.

@Carlos, ooo dem's perty means...." Ooooh, they are pretty".

Thanks Molly, appreciate it. It does sort of have that pewter look to it.

The first word "ooo" could have been spelled as "ohhh"
Ohhh: Is a multi purpose expression. it can be used to show amazement, pain, or excitement.
Rick: "I just found fifty dollars!!!!" Steve: " Ohhh!!! "
***
Dem's purty: Is misspelled on purpose. In an attempt to mimic how some people from the southern States may sound when they speak.
The entire phrase could have been written as, "Ohhh those are pretty".
The word "dem's" is a misspelled form of the word "Them", again this was spelled wrong on purpose. And "purty" is again a misspelling of the word "Pretty", as in; "Look at that pretty woman".

Again, definitely some cool font interpretations.
