Magpie2012's Patterns
« on: October 19, 2012, 05:11:38 PM »
Hi all... So I tried playing in CAP and came up with a few things. I thought I'd start a topic for my patterns so you can download them if you want. If there's anything wrong with them please don't hesitate to let me know as I can only learn from your suggestions. I do apologize in advance for the fact that I forgot to make note of the category these first few will be found in but I promise I will update their details once I've found them in the game for myself!

My first pattern is called zebra butterfly found  in Misc.



I don't think it works as a wallpaper but I liked how it turned out on the chair and sofa



This next one is called love and kisses found in Fabric


I'm actually not sure where I would use this one but I put it on the wall so you could see it in all its "glory"


Then we have dream (no clue why I called it that lol) found in Tiles and Mosaic


As you can see I went a little colour mad all around the room


Now its my decorative tile 0001 (I'm hoping there will be many more to get rid of at least one of those zeroes) found in Tiles and Mosaic


Strangely enough for a "tile" pattern it looks best on the chair and sofa


Then I have in the brown found in Wood


I like this for the wall OR floor both together is a bit much though lol


My last three use the specular layer in CAP so i apologize if you can't see the shiny bits nicely

purple and green found in Themed




orchid shine found in Themed




And lastly burnt orange





If any of the images are too small to see clearly please check out the "my patterns" folder in the gallery under Magpie2012 (sorry I have no idea how to link you up there)

Wow these patterns are cool! I love them all! My favorite though is the Orchid Shine, how did you get it to look like that?

Well I used CAP and started with a base colour, then added a pattern and made it slightly see-through and then using the specular layer (its the top layer in CAP that has the little lightbulb next to it) I added a pattern on each corner and the orchid in the middle... Basically CAP took care of the rest! Thanks for the feedback  ;D

Nice job Magpie. I knew you could do it. :) But be careful. Making patterns can be addictive.  Not that I would know anything about that.  ;)
I really liked Dream and Orchid Shine.

Aah thanks Grim! yeah I can see it's addictive... But so rewarding! I want to do a happy dance because I have 4 downloads already  ;D and I hope you give more patterns so I can learn from the master  ;)

Thanks Lou! Wow orchid shine seems to be a hit... Strangely enough I'm actually not that fond of it lol I prefer dream and burnt orange.

Fantastic patterns Magpie! The Blue Swirl is awesome on the couch! Think it would make a beautiful rug pattern too.  :)
