Super Blade Pro

[molucca]

The wing was a vector drawing in Xara, and made into a gray PNG for SBP. SBP is a bitmap plugin and the coloring and textureing comes from environments. It has a limitation on the amount of shaping when doing large images, but it works fine here.

I normally color the cells in E3, however the cells were done in SBP with a lead environment. In SBP, I can do both the cells and matrix. The matrix is too complex for E3.

I did a matrix fill in Xara with an image of the wing, and used AutoFX Gel for shaping. Gel is a bitmap plugin as well.

So, with SBP the colors and textures come from environment images.

In addition, I use Mezzoforce Ice on the cells, and maybe Gel for post shaping.
