Nice Stygg, looks excellent.
The 'Genopal' link is very good, thanks Gary.
Been busy updating some web stuff plus just managed to finish a seamless tile made from hexagons, what a mare but think its 99% spot on.

Genopal is quite nice, isn't it?
It really gets designers away from the "this is the color opposite of this color" syndrome.

Cheers Antspants, just tried to make a tube like rim on this image by making a shape, giving it a warm grey 3 flat fill, cloning it and giving that a fractal plasma fill with feathering, not bad but not great Also added a top design to fill the can.

Sorry to be a pain guys but here's the final rendition, promise

You're not being a pain, Stygg, and it's a joy to watch your progress, man.
One thing I'd like to see is more of a suggestion of reflection on the label.
Or not, completely your call and even as I write this, I'm finishing this moth's tutorials.
But here's a suggestion/tip: As long as you have a selection going around the profile of the can, why not take a blank copy of the can, align it on top, and then give it about 10% opacity to create a little visual complexity that suggests a reflective surface?
Overall, though, you should be quite pleased with what you've learned and accomplished!

Certainly makes a difference doing what you suggested Gary. It seemed to look better with a linear trans. 70% top 100% bottom. Thanks for the tip. Looking forward to the new tut.

Funny. The text tutorial feels like I created it last year!
You did good, stay tuned for a new bunch of stuff on The Xone.

Last minute effort before this thread is gone. I'm beginning to really love the mould tool, it opens up a whole new world.

Looks good Stygg. That was a good tip from Gare.

Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
