The NEW Powell3D Weblog

I like to create seamless tiles. This new background could be a little more seamless, but I’m not going to fix it now.

This one is a result of using anisohedral’s tiling applet to lay down the outlines, then coloring in horizontal spectrum bands, and vertical spectrum bands and setting each to 50% transparency. Toying with the layer blending and the “plastic wrap” effect in Photoshop, I get shiny tiles.

The image to the right links to a full page view of this tile. You can see the flaws even more!

I have the PSD file saved, so I can fix it and even make other variations of this concept. I just need more time.

More time please!
