>What is Renders in Shapes?
It's a render in a shape on a nature/urban wallpaper. Shapes are often white/black in color. Text is sometimes added, but that is personal preference.

1) Please post rendered images, preferably high quality ones
2) Thank whoever filled your request
First attempt, how is it?
>>1961917
Another one, I think this turned out better
>>1961921
Can you do it in mobile resolution (1080x1920)
>>1961921
Did you pixelize instead of blurring?
manga senpai
>>1961932
Yep, because
>videogames
>>1961942
Thanks!
>>1961922
Is this one good?
>>1961850
looking at the tutorial right now, what exactly do i ctrl left click? the render or the shape? either way, all it seems to do is select the layer itself which doesn't let me select > inverse
>>1961964
Click the layer thumbnail. I right-click with the Rectangle Marquee Tool selected to get the option to inverse.
I'll add annotations to the tutorial to better explain that part, sorry
>>1961964
Changes applied, the new annotations should show now, and hopefully explain that better. Sorry for any confusion.
>>1961921
>>1961947
Wait, shit, I fucked up and thought you wanted the first one, sorry
>>1961972
>>1961976
Thanks! Here's the result. Made the render myself too, not too great but it's not terribly noticeable.
>>1961979
Looks good! I like that the render doesn't clash with the background color-wise.
>>1961917
reminds me of that european vampire film, let the right one in
Not sure about this one, I think it looks better with photographs.
Someone posted about this in /wsr/ and never responded. Here's the characters only if anyone wants it:
https://a.uguu.se/cKJMucxwuAwD_nekopararender.png
I did a terrible job restoring some of the bottom left hair where it was completely covered by text.
Is it possible to do this on a phone?
Second try at this. Hopefully someone enjoys it.
Im so fugin proud of this
First attempt. Looks pretty good I think.
Without text.
>>1961977
Both are fine, thank you.
>>1961921
Can i have the render plz?
>>1961850
Can someone do a shape render for this
>>1962094
I am genuinely wondering why you would want this over the original.
Well, its the heart or stars type shape a valid entry for this type of wallpaper? Also, can I keep the shape off center?
My eugh
>>1962102
Since when are there rules?
>>1962097
It is better
>>1962069
Here you go, my dude
Don't worry, I know it looks awful. I was just trying something new in GIMP.
>>1962282
got a GIMP guide m8 ?
does somebody think that vaporwave will be a good idea with this style?
>>1962297
Just play around with GIMP for a while and you'll know what to do. All it takes is a few minutes on google to learn how to make these.
>>1962314
I have a vaporwave pape with this style, sort of.
kinda ok i guess
Tuturu~
>>1962337
Hold shift to draw circles instead of ellipses. Also google how to center layers. Of course if it wasn't intentional.
>>1962344
thanks for the advice m8,first time using Photoshop
>>1962337
Can I get the render?
>>1962348
Here you go m8
>>1962332
seems ok to me
Just wanted to say thank you for the tutorial. I like this kind of theme.
>>1962349
Much appreciated.
>>1962355
Not a problem, glad it was able to help you. For all those that use GIMP I'll look into making a tutorial Sunday for ya. I'm busy till then.
>>1962186
Thanks a lot!
>>1962357
Thanks!
>>1961917
>>1961921
Yet another one, is this still cool or am I going too overboard?
>>1962404
I love the idea a lot, except the render is a bit pixely.
>>1961850
seel I have been following this guide and when I get to the step to rasterize it is unable to, it is simply greyed out. Please spoonfeed as this is my first time using photoshop.
>>1962357
Ha. I was going to make one in the last thread, but due to my general laziness I didn't.
>>1962416
These kinds of thing can be solved if you spend a few minutes on Google or if you play around with the software.
Why tf do people have Photoshop and other expensive software if they don't use it.
>>1962419
I only got it today and I pirated it.
>>1962420
i figured it out, apologizes for shitting up the thread.
>>1962414
Yeah, I noticed that too, so I altered it a bit
On a side note, should I stop whoring myself? I don't know if it's annoying for you guys to see mostly my stuff in this thread
>Inb4 low res hoppou
where do you find good backgrounds for the papes?
>>1962489
/wg/ and /w/
>>1962492
Whoops, didn't erase enough
>>1962466
Use png
>>1961850
my 1st try
>>1962442
>megumin2
>2
Is there a 1?
requester here, dont have a comp rn.
anyone here can edit using this render with any wallpaper? as for the shape, a white circle is fine, preferably with her pigtails sticking out of the circle.
wallpaper size is 540x960, thanks in advance
>>1962562
Is it good enough?
>>1962562
Or maybe this one?
>>1962538
Not that anon but here I made a megumin1 just for you.
>>1962572
both are awesome, but i prefer this one
i really appreciate this, thank you anon
Why are these so popular
>>1962589
they are "new"
My first try, tried to do it with different backgrounds and shapes/styles
1/3
>>1962628
2/3
>>1962628
>>1962629
3/3
>>1962631
yep, i think someone else did it before
>>1962282
Can I have that background and the render of Ryougi? I can always make the render if you don't have it.
>>1962442
Do you happen to know the name of the font used in this?
>>1962576
Anon, i love you
>>1962662
>i love you
Gosh.
I'm glad you like it. I had a good laugh making it.
Some good sites for render? Also, first try ;p
>>1962680
i got mine from /imt/, deviantart and from here
Tried to do one with a black and white render
>>1962680
>>1961653
And also IMT threads
First Attempt
Does anyone have the original of this without the time and stuff?
>>1962915
I just remade it for you instead.
I think I might get addicted to this
>>1961850
I got this cute one i made yesterday
Requesting this with any background that would suit it
Where's the Gimp tutorial vid?
Requesting this as 1080 for mobile and desktop
Bonus points if background has a happy or relaxing theme on it
>>1962960
>>1962960
>>1962970
Have a good day, anon.
>>1962945
What do you think of it?
>>1962972
Didn't post the wallpaper...
>>1962973
Better than mine
>>1962945
Made also a different version.
I made something.
>>1962930
I really like this.
Also for those who were waiting for me to do a GIMP tutorial... it's not happening. I tried, and failed to use GIMP.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hakQoTKWzRs this new channel used this style of pape as BG
>>1962998
hot diggity damn. thats a pape i made last thread.
>>1962994
thought you could learn GIMP right away? Totally different from Ps. I make these things with GIMP and it's so bad. Circles look choppy and the selection is weird. If anyone wants to learn how to make these with GIMP just google for a few minutes and play around with the software. Just stick with photoshop if you can.
>>1963029
Pretty much. I didn't realize how big of a difference there was between the two software.
>>1962994
Thanks anon, i'm saving yours too
I might make a GIMP tutorial later if I'm not feeling too lazy
>>1963032
Don't worry. I alreaddy know that the render is overlapping the circle. I forgot to shrink the selection
I'm getting addicted to this...
>>1963035
So now would say "You missed 1pixel" i fixed it for you
>>1962973
I like it! Thanks!
>>1962915
Thanks bro I've been trying to find this everywhere even the original!
>>1962572
any chance you could do this in 1920x1080? Looks great.
>>1963067
Thanks. Unfortunately wallpaper I used as a background wasn't cropped by me, but found in such a resolution on the internet. I tried to find it's wider version but failed. I did my best to create something similar.
If you find some background that would work better I'll do a wallpaper for you later.
Requesting this
>>1963099
Not sure which one looks better, this one...
>>1963108
or this one.
Hope any of them are to your liking.
I'm getting the hang of it on GIMP
>>1962576
Holy shit this is great
hey guys I tried my hand, the only thing is I couldn't find very good quality images of Kagari-san, but I did my best. I don't have Ps so I used Pixlr Editor online. how did I do?
First attempt at megumin wp. pretty happy with it.
>>1963152
that shit is super clean, I wish I could do it like that. but it sticking out on the bottom
>>1963153
Thanks! and i know, but i saw it after i was finished
How i can do a heart shape in Ps?
>>1963152
Here's my second try.
This is my first try
Here is my Idea
So no Gimp tutorial?
>>1963188
Just get Photoshop.
http://www.techspot.com/downloads/3689-adobe-photoshop-cs2.html
I'm following all the directions exact. Why am I getting this?
>>1962930
can you post the render?
>>1963187
wow my favourite one here c:
>>1963160
Thanks, but i was talking about something like pic related
>>1963228
Anyone?
>>1963228
>>1963255
not too sure dude, but it looks to me that you're doing something wrong
>>1963256
I know. I'm having a hard time figuring out what I'm doing wrong.
>>1963256
>>1963258
you're messing up somewhere around 1:25 of the video
handful of things you're probably doing wrong.
Don't use the magic want tool to select what parts of your vector layer you want to delete.
Use inverse selection of your shape layer instead and erase parts you don't want off your vector layer
While you still have inverse selection, you can guasian blur your background layer. This will make it so that the selected pixels are affected and nothing else.
>>1963259
Thanks, I'll give it a try.
>>1963261
Thank you.
>>1963266
When you go to delete bits of the render are the dotted lines like this?
>>1963268
Yes
>>1963270
I don't know if this is your problem, but take a look at my dotted lines. They're like this because I didn't rasterize the shape layer. If you do rasterize the shape layer, then do the steps at 1:25 you run the risk of deleting parts of the render you don't want to delete like bits in the shape.
Typically the residual outline you're getting is because you've selected the render layer (CTRL + Left-Click) and deleted the parts you don't want. What you should be doing is selecting the shape layer (CTRL + Left-Click on layer thumbnail), inverting the selection, and with the render layer selected (NOT CTRL + Left-Click) deleting the parts you don't want.
If this doesn't seem to help, record a video or something and link it this way we can see exactly where things are going astray.
>>1963277
Thanks, I'll try to figure it out from here.
>>1963254
what is that font?
>>1963254
OP for that background,
right click the shape tool > custom shape > look at the top where fill and stroke are, to the right there should be shapes > Look for the 'heart card' (should be next to clover and spade) > no fill > stroke (I put 10pt)
Hopefully that's is helpful. I use CS6 so I don't know if it's different in the other versions of Photoshop.
>>1963306
MS Gothic
>>1963328
fuck this is good
make one of Rossweisse m8
1/2 I prefer hearts but whatever works.
>>1963336
Just Chise (the girl) and the magical plants and orbs if you can.
Whatever backgrounds are fine.
1920x1080 Resolution please.
Going to post some I made, with text/no text
1. Sakamoto
>>1963344
with text, got the vector from the vector google drive.
>>1963345
2. Luluco
I actually have a bit of alts for this one. This one is what I believe to be the best. I'll dump the rest on some image sharing site like tomorrow or whenever I can. Got the vector at the same place.
>>1963349
3. Akagi
Last one, text, vector same place. I actually like this one the most.
>>1963350
no text, I do have an issue I forgot to mention and that's the rectangle, if you look closely there is some faulty stroke (to be honest I don't really know how to describe it). Hopefully you guys like them. I'll upload the luluco alts eventually
Just made this one. I don't have photoshop and I suck, someone please tell me what you think. at least give me a ( you).
And without text.
>>1963385
>>1963386
Not bad for not using PS, what do you use? Gimp? Paint.net?
Here's some items to improve on.
1.) The aspect ratio looks a little off for the Misato picture. (It might be because I'm on my phone)
2.) The render could be better. (Still see some white from the background in some areas)
3.) The image goes over the triangle. Not extremely noticeable from a distance, but can be easily seen from a normal eye view.
4.) Probably should make another version without the Nerv logo, cause more variety ya know?
>>1963398
For number 3 I mean on the bottom.
>>1962324
Ohhhhh, lovin this one, props to whomever made this
>>1963461
I'm an idiot and don't know how to read. Sorry.
First try, I'll try to do better next time. But before that, can someone tell me how to get the lines like in 0:46 in the video guide? When I have smart guides, they're very short and don't reach till the end of the layer which makes it pretty hard to align the render and the shape layer.
>>1963510
Thank you
>>1963398
thanks m8, I was using Pixlr editor, a web app. it sucks but it still works. thanks for the input man
>>1962343
There is a gap between her bottom and the box?
Been trying it out. I guess something to keep in mind is the size of the circle and the render. Maybe keep it at something around 1/4 of your screen.
>>1963188
i made a video when i was doing one with gimp
maybe i can post it
>>1963188
https://a.pomf.cat/uindro.mp4
here you go, GIMP tutorial. I followed no other guides, so I'm probably doing it in the most inefficient way, but it works.
Also, is pomf, so I think it will go 404 in a week. I will repost it if you find it useful
>>1963580
oh and I just realised that the GUI is in Italian, but I think it's not too hard to follow
Thoughts?
Can someone do one of my nigga Harambe?
>>1963580
The circle in this is a helluva lot cleaner than with my method, but when I use GIMP it only takes me about 1-2 minutes to make one.
>>1963448
Please post the render.
>>1963605
>>>/a/146890826
>>1963353
Another two I made today while waiting for class.
>>1963687
no text verison
>>1963688
Wonder if I should use drop shadow for the text or just leave it plain
>>1963689
No text version
>>1963588
Dude, can i get this not minimalist?
>>1963698
np. I can't wait to see what more people do with minimalism.
Where can I get photoshop at? kat is dead now.
>>1962324
Thanks for my new wallpaper
Thought I'd give it a whirl
Opinions?
>>1963734
You're welcome, I'm glad that people like it.
>>1963187
I dig it.

if someone could make one of vegeta, i'd date you for life ok
Lain version please!
10/10 thread thank you senpai
>Renders
>Half of this shit is just blurry bitmaps
Why call them renders, as in what normal people call vectors, if you're just gonna use bad bitmaps?
Or is this what you mean by render? Someone else rendered it, you used it.
Don't wanna shit on your parade, this stuff all looks great, but hell.
>>1963988
Please don't even start.
Popular use can dictate meaning. You can argue it's incorrect usage of the term render all you want, but it is what it is.
Nobody calls this vectoring though. I don't know why you said that.
Render in this usage means taking an image of a character and cutting them out/removing the background and making it an image with alpha channel/transparency so it can be easily used with other images.

>Render in this usage means taking an image of a character and cutting them out/removing the background and making it an image with alpha channel/transparency so it can be easily used with other images.
That makes even less fucking scene, spare the literal meaning of render
>>1963986
Cool, could I have the render from the picture?
First one I made, any advice?
Just made this one in gimp not to bad translating it over.
>>1964064
Made another one in gimp this render had the top of the head cut off im going to try another one.
>>1964067
Made another in gimp this is getting ezz
>>1964071
Made another one
>>1964073
Made another one
W2C render, backgrounds and inspiration?
>>1964077
Just made this I'm thinking a new background
>>1964082
sheeeit son
>>1964081
If your render is cut off, hide the cut off parts so it doesn't look cut off. Also try to get a better render-background color mix. Too big of a contrast doesn't look very good, like in >>1964081 and >>1964071
A good example is >>1963029 where you can find most of the colors from the render in the background.
Also try to get the blurring right, not like in >>1964074 where on the bottom of the rectangle there are still a few sharp pixels. I like the blurried rectangle tho, if you keep it decent.
>>1964085
heres another one i just made
>>1964031
isn't the greatest render, but other then that, It's pretty good
Hello can someone do something with this render pls? I try to do it but i can't make any nice circle on photoshop CS6 :(
>>1964103
sure, what resolution/background do you want
>>1964104
1920*1080 please
Had to get some stiens;gate :)
>>1964103
>>1964106
Here you go, if you want a different background image then just say so.
>>1964070
Thanks
>>1964110
tuturuuuuuu
>>1964110
I cried every time she died.
>>1963768
where is her face
having no face only works with silhouettes otherwise they all resemble mannequins
>>1963585
You either need to hide her features that are outside the frame, or have her pop out of the frame so that where she encounters the frame, the frame then becomes hidden behind her.
Can anyone tell me if the format for the text is correct, please?
Also I hope the quote is correct. I just pulled it off the web.
I'm ready for fall and winter to come already.
>>1964196
I've tried to work with perspective. Like, the knees are more in the foreground than her legs, and her horn points more towards the viewer than her hair. Although I had to cut off the second horn because the render was cut off there.
>>1964111
Nice thank you!
Anyone can help me to do circle in photoshop cs6 pls? :(
>>1964217
Select Ellipse tool, hold shift while dragging to keep it a perfect circle. Set fill and stroke options as you like.
Do you not know about the shape tool? How are you having trouble?
>>1964219
I know about the shape tool but i'm having trouble with making a perfect circle, i didn't know about the hold shift thing
I finally done one!
>>1964228
Not to be picky but the blur on the left is inside the circle.
>>1964229
Man i didn't see that, i fix it!
I removed the halo thing it was a mistake
I saw one with Rei and Mari, but I haven't seen any with Asuka yet, so I did my version of it.
>>1961850
Also how about you try working with masks, it's really easy and makes the whole thing alot more comfy.
First attempt. I know I fucked up with the watermark.
>>1964266
it would be nice to have this in the op
>>1962011
>https://a.uguu.se/cKJMucxwuAwD_nekopararender.png
Could you upload that again somewhere?
>>1964306
https://my.mixtape.moe/rjbqza.png
>>1964412
Thank you.
Requesting one more Monmusu. I have a ton of premade renders, so if anyone wants, I can upload them all somewhere.
>>1964417
Do you have the render in a bigger size? Might not look good when it's resized too much.
hi
>>1964496
>>1964266
>>1964271
Fixed it.
This one turned out really nice.
>>1964508
Good
>>1964493

did this one for a buddy. ik render has some white on edges, was kinda lazy cutting it out
>>1964580
Anon again, here you go. For the religious ones.
>>1964604
made this one aswell
I'm looking into learning how to do some renders and thought this might be a good place to ask. Any good place to get Photoshop & Illustrator CC? Is piratebay still reliable?
The only private trackers i'm apart of nowadays are for games or movies.
>>1964616
Another lazy attempt
>>1964628
I got them on some random website that linked to 1fichier download links xD. And about the renders you should check on the Vector thread :D
>>1964630
Will do, thanks a bunch.
>>1964629
For laptop users :D
First attempt. I didn't blur the background because you wouldn't be able to see much in the circle anyway, what do you guys think?
Also I think Holo is a really good character for this.
First time making something like this
I like what I see in this thread. Can anyone make something with pic related? I'm thinking a dark background easy on the eyes, no need to blur anything. 1920x1080. Thanks in advance
>>1964662
You got any background in mind?
>>1964662
Any shape in particular? Gonna try 3 of them :D
>>1964662
Here you go Anon, no blurring and square shape :D
1/?
>>1964662
No text for you also 2/?
>>1964662
In Circle shape and no text :D

>>1964670
Was gonna try 3 but triangle it's too much for me. Maybe tomorrow, sry :D
>>1964661
nice anon
I made some of these.
>>1961938
More like this please
>>1964648
Makes sense, I personally like it.
c.c from code geass

can you make the gun ontop of the square please
Made this using a pic of my home town, what do you think?
>>1962572

new thread
>>1964942
Not the anon who did all the others but I liked the render.
Request
>>1964721
nice
Can someone? pls
>>1965114
Give it in a render (PNG) if you can pls :D
I've made some more, here ya go!!
>>1964661
Another attempt at this
>>1965236
Mobile/Alternative version
First attempt at this stuff, how'd i go ?
>>1962576
fixed a minor issue on inner thigh
>>1965299
fixed my own fuck up god damn
>>1965299
>>1965301
I'm glad you liked it enough that you took the effort to fix that. I used a really really low quality image for that. I had the idea before I had the image, but could only find one or two images of Megumin faceplanted like that.
I could probably do a better job rendering it now but I don't think it's worth the bother.
Instead I make new ones like this.
First time I tried to make flare effects. On the staff, the little red flare on the eye is in the original image. I may have overdid it a little.
First try (i know, the background is shit).
Good or nah?
>>1965368
I don't care for the rotation but that's just personal preference.
However it looks like rotating it made it look like there's a gap on the bottom.
>>1962923
Fucking saved. Thanks mate!
My attempt. I've got a .png version too for rainmeter skins.
First attempt
>>1961917
I know this thread is full and there's a new one, but I would adore it if something could be done with that moth girl image, but in 1920x1080.
