Wow, these ToT units look great! Have you made them, Eyn?

BTW, can I upload them too?

Eyn, may I put these units on the Cradle of Civilization?

I find that the best results are obtained by copy paste-reduce-sharpen.

yes that's a bit better for some of it
i try "copy-paste-soften-reduce-sharpen" and it looks good.
i'll keep this way for soldiers but i tried to sharpen some WW2
vehicules too... i dislike the resultat.
i've "sharpen" some of the soldiers and had 3-4 more soldiers to the zip file.

The new units look most excelent!

You should shrapen the rest.


My real method for unit reduction:
[list=1][*]copy[*]paste[*]remove background[*]recolor (where needed)[*]repaint/remove fine detail tune lighting[*]reduce[*]sharpen[*]trim aliasing[*]copy and paste 10 times[*]combine the 10 copies together (removes remaining aliasing)[*]shadow [*]done[/list=1]

plait-il ? ...
hmmm riiiight...
but i don't want to spend 1 hour/units !
i use freehand selection to "cute" the units only
i adjust brightness(-)/contrast(+) the "clipboard"
i soften it
i reduce it
i sharpen it
then i definitively paste it
i removed some "background"pixel
take me 2-3 min/unit

The process above takes about 20 minutes using Corel Draw 10. It would take much longer in any other software.

I usuallly spend 3 to 4 hours on an image. Sometimes much longer. I'm a perfectionist, but I think the results are worth it. For example, my avatar (to the left) took about 16 hours total.

20 minutes that's to much time spend for me but...
... 3-4 hours for ONE unit ?... and 16 hours for your avatar?

Alas, there is no treatment for perfectionism.
