How I Create BRL Images With Gimp (Bevel Reflect)

GnuTux · **Posted:** Thu Feb 12, 2015 11:48 pm **(#161)**

Great work, guys & gals.

I love the way GC members combine various techniques to create unique digital art. It's very inspiring.

@GnuTux - its your toolkit that allows us to make these images ... thank you again for the opportunity!

Still enjoying this concept and extended the paths/brl/texture combination to one of my favourite sports with an influence of Moorish architecure in the subtle BRL of the frame too ...

Then while I was doing it I thought I should say a very big thank you to Issabella who has been so very supportive of my GC posts, so here it is with some BRL Spanish shields as well ...

@Issabella - I really appreciate your supportive words.

BRL is so flexible and versatile ... I have so much fun exploring it ... so why do I call it 'blue moods' ...

Beautiful...the blue patterns inside remind me of abalone shell

Huge thanks to you OMG, your creations and your ability to everything you have tried have been a resource of inspiration to me.
My short English vocabulary is my problem, but I can say I love what you do. Thank you very much. :clap

How about a video how to download the script? It does not work for me. It is very cool.
Thanks.

You need to first have the required ML Bevel Reflect Plug-in installed.
http://gimpscripts.com/2014/01/ml-bevel-reflect/

Then install the Bevel Reflect Logo and then it should work for you.

Once installed the Menu Locations are as follows:
File/Create/Logos (gimpchat.com)
Filters/Alpha To Logo

It seems most people have moved on from this thread now, but I must be in some form of timewarp, still exploring BRL with my new gradients and paths ... so here is my BRL equivalent of a black hole

Well Wallace, Sallyanne has provided me a new medium for BRL with her Truchet thread ... so of course I cannot resist ...

So here are my BRL circuitboard and BRL topography images, courtesy of Sallyanne and Truchet ...

If everybody learning GIMP has half the fun I do, then we are all lucky people :hi5
