Posted: June 14th, 2015, 8:37 amExcellent stuff, sir. I completely agree with MoD. You have a hell of a lot of talent.
You had asked for advice on textures, and in fact that is one of the things I love playing with the most in the photo-editing programs like GIMP. I would say that Render Difference Clouds is one of the most fun to play with. You can sit there and do it over and over again, and create some really funky looking stuff, including wispy/stringy stuff, and some quite good looking cloudforms, after a few rounds. I also enjoy playing with the pixellize variants. If you can get a good Mosaic or Stained Glass (Photoshop's Crystallize is particularly good), you can play with applying that multiple times, and seeing what that does to a picture. I've also made good looking clouds with that method as well (especially if you combine the two - the crystallize gives it that wrinkly/complex look that the regular filter doesn't give).
Great for fire is doing a Generate Noise, hue switching it to reds and yellows, and then taking the smudge tool and streaking the heck out of it (go all in one direction, though, like left to right, and give it some wiggle while you do it). Rotate it so the smudges go up, and you can make some really good looking fire. Generate Noise can spice up the clouds and pixellates too, especially if you put it on it's own layer and make it 80% transparent for a very subtle effect. Great for giving that "gritty, realistic look" to things.
Anyways. I'll stop babbling, and let you get back to being awesome.
