If by that, you want the bullet holes to only appear once and then stop, do the following (in Imageready):


Image

In the bottom left of your Animation window, click the button that says "Forever" (if you've never changed this button, it should be set to that by default). Now a small dropout menu should come up, with the options "Forever", "Once", and "Other". Forever makes the animation continue forever. Once runs through all the frames once, and when it's over it displays the last frame. You can customize the number of times with "Other", and make it run through the animation [two, three, or] however many times you'd like. Hope this helps!

Pretty good.
Try using different bullet holes for each bullet hole or at least rotating them so they aren't all the same.

Its pretty good, except the bullet holes dont look real and you have a bullet hole going over the link to the site.

H'ok, lots of problems with this.....

Screws, you just did a light effect and copyed them, you should have remade them entirely, keeping the light comming from one source. That metal like shine going from right to left, its blows. Change it so the shine is in the middle, if this was a flat piece of metal, the shine would be in the center. Bullet holes suck, plain and simple, its just the same one, not even rotated, and the scraps resulting from the the shot overlap the text, bad move there. The enlarged bullet holes look washed out. The medal streaks originate from the top and bottom, looks like it was raining, you should have done the tutorial on a bigger canvas than the final.

Text is a nogo, the bevel and lighting contrasts the lighting of the metal.

Furiosa, please read the rules before reposting your sig. It's over the filesize limit.

Cuda, the bulletholes look really fake, so try to give them a more realistic shape and a more metal-like texture. :wink:
