Nice thumbnails

1,358 Sunkray  10 months ago

I see all these nice builds with some crazy SP craftsmanship but most importantly good marketing

Look alright, me want nice photoshop thumbnail too, ooga booga, how to do?

( PS I'm on android and I'm way too lazy to do some digging atm )

[You may see some of my builds from like 4 years ago have them, look, I honestly just forgot quite a lot of things, I came back playing to make some fun to fly planes]

    @intruder72 yeah, fonts are quite limited on polish. I don't mind it really, but it does suck if you need a certain don't. And yes, it does have a remove background feature. Pretty much all of my planes used thumbnails edited with polish beginning from the SP-38

    @Noname918181818181818181 what I didn't knew it had that
    i used polish for quite some time until i moved to the built in image editor in capcut which has more fonts and i can rmove the background, my only complain about polish is that it has too little fonts to choose, capcut has too much I can't even find one that fits me, the only font i automatically use it oswald

    Since you are on Android, I can recommend the photo editor I use, which is called polish. The main reason why is because of it's cut feature, allowing me to add text behind the plane, also it has nice blur effects

    It's a mix of two, In-game(composition, SP tools/commands, light, background) and Editing(fixing colors, making things pop out, contrast, exposure); for the former, two tutorials I'd give out is one by ollielebananiaCFSP and TRD(TRD is a outdated, and with discord unhosting images, it's fwked) and also with associated commands and such on the comment sections; the latter I use Adobe Lightroom, of which my settings are :


    Exposure : +1.50-1.70
    Contrast : +10-20
    Highlights : -100
    Shadows : +25-27
    Whites : -100
    Blacks : +100


    Temp : 0
    Tint : +10
    Vibrance : +56
    Saturation : +39

    [ Red ]

    Hue : +10
    Saturation : -16
    Luminance : -36
    [ Orange ]

    Hue : -6
    Saturation : -47
    Luminance : +56
    [ Yellow ]

    Hue : -25

    Luminance : +70
    [ Green ]

    Hue : +5

    [ Purple ]

    [ Pink ]

    Hue : 0
    Saturation : 0
    Luminance : 0


    Texture : -25
    Clarity : -25


    you need to adjust this as needed as it is dynamic(e.g. predominant skies and water will make blue more vibrant, mass mountains and grass would make it green-yellow), play with the Saturation, maybe lessen the Hue a bit, lessen the Luminance if it is too bright.


    closing words.. it is quite hard to understand at the beginning, I had that moment when I transitioned from Photoshop to Lightroom,the latter offers a more dynamic editing and fine tuning so that's why I changed, don't be afraid to fwk up one or two maybe even a dozen, just learn along with it and try to fix the flaws in every iteration, a Chinese saying I like is It's not uncommon to learn and practice at the same time., just have fun with it! shoooshs!
