Rive's Art (Signature Breakdown: Oct 24th 2009)Most Recent Addition: March 8th, 2008Note: I only did the coloring for this one. 
________________________________________ Well let's start off with the quick image I did specifically for the forum, Rive, the Jedi drunk! :p 
And here's a Clone Wars Yoda with some quick digital correction and coloring 
Here's how the image looked before digital correction and coloring, it was quite large so the line in the middle is from the fact that my scanner wasn't large enough to get the whole image in one scan 
|

| Yodafueva me |
awesome

| Lyn Korak |
True |

Here's a Clone Wars Anakin with Digital Coloring and Correction
And here was the original 
|

| Lady Saber |
That's cool.

Very , very good .

| SkywalkerAndVader |
You've got some talent there Rive, nice drawings. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
A nice pic to accompany the disgruntled Anakin
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
I like that Anakin one. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Another Obi-Wan, Episode II era Clone Wars.
Also tried my hand at converting 2 to wallpapers, a bit of a resize, a bit of shadow, a bit of an aura for Yoda, a chair for Obi-Wan. Bingo, wallpaper-style. (Click Thumbnail for full version) 
|

| Lady Saber |
Whoah, those are AWESOME!!
|
||||
| Shatterpoint |
Geez Rive , is there anything you aren't great at , lol ? 
|
||||
| Kote |
Those are some great pictures Rive. I really like the Anakin one. | ||||
| Lady Saber |
Ooohh!! I know! Two things, he's not great at....not being great, lol, or a Sith. But, really I liked the wallpapers, they looked awesome!!
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Who says I'm not good at being a Sith?
|
||||
| Marcus |
Very nice. | ||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Whoa, Rive, lol...
Lol mind if I use that Yoda pic for my screen wallpaper? |
||||
| Rive Caedo |
I don't mind at all
Though you might want to use the version I made specfically for that purpose if you missed it. That's what I put it there for. I was using the normal version for my wallpaper before however, so they both work if you prefer that. Wallpaper Version: http://i33.photobucket.com/albums/d74/Rive-Caedo/Art/1140baa7.jpg |
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Cool, ty. Now I have a pretty picture on my PC! Lol. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Don't know why I'm in such a photoshoppy mood this evening, but here's yet another coloring job, digital redo of the first image I posted. This one was alot harder because it already had color, and I had to remove it, whch also removed a bunch of the lines... So I had to replace those digitally... then... Well anyway, all in all it was a mess, but I'm rather pleased with the result considering all the problems. If nothing else, it was a good color study.

I like the shooter glass
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Mos Eisley being a wretched hive of scum and villainy is only true from a certain point of view
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Well, you can just look up top to see the final version, but here was the evolution of the new logo.
Initial Formatting 
Texture added 
Glow and blur added, aslo a bit of brightness and saturation toned up 
Starfield added to blend with background, made semi-transparent 
|
||||
| Lyn Korak |
All of these pic. are really really cool Rive. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Somewhat inspired by Mordork's sigs and my little logo thing I put together a banner of my own. Sort of an Order 66 theme.
|
||||
| Lady Saber |
Order 66!! Lol, JK. These are really cool, Rive.
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Last in the series of colorizing my old Clone Wars sketches, this one was so large I had to scan it in 4 seperate sections and reassemble it, thus why the sketch version looks a bit odd
Bonus: Wallpaper Edition

| Lady Saber |
Full of coolness!!
|

| Dork of Mordork |
Nice. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
They've already been posted in another thread, but archiving them here in case that one gets deleted.
Parody Forum Logos 
|
||||
| Lady Saber |
Haha, did you make those? | ||||
| Lyn Korak |
All those last ones is really cool. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Saber: Of course I made 'em
Well... I mean it was basically just adding some text to an image and messing around with it until it was fitting and readable... But yeah. Here's some more... real art. A wallpaper version of the Anakin picture I made. I kinda like the idea for this one. Anakin being lit up by the last bit of light from the hologram before it fizzles away. Click the thumbnail for full version.

Revised version of Ani Wallpaper. (Click for Full Version)
Fixes: 1. Hologram effect changed to look more faded away. 2. Hologram moved into correct position on wrist projector. 3. Got rid of flat line seperating brown from black at the top of the hood. Blended now. |
||||
| Shatterpoint |
Thats awesome , geez , is there anything you aren't good at Rive , lol . | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
croquet
I could never get a handle on those mallets. 
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Hm here's an older one from sometime around Clone Wars Volume I coming out.

Omg I love that one!
Could you make a new pic of tha clone and the blue on sometime?? |
||||
| Lyn Korak |
Those are realy cool I like the clone one. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Inspired by Abba, just putting up my "Weapons Rack" of sabers I've made over time.
|
||||
| Lady Saber |
I have one word to say.....wow.
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Nice sabers, Rive.
Mine's the best *cough* *cough* J/k |
||||
| Lord Embeion |
Thanks for the great wallpapers
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Hm... Haven't updated this in awhile but I suppose this is worthy of ressurecting the thread.
My first animated saber signature! 
|
||||
| Zoxa Jod |
Thats Awesome!
I now have something to stare at for hours. |
||||
| Shatterpoint |
Omg, that is so cool, I love it. | ||||
| Jedi Abba |
That is so cool. I used to be able to animations with a program I downloaded, but the 60 day trial was over like last year. 
|
||||
| Jaden Nightsaber |
Rive, you went and did it again. You are amazing man. How does that feel? | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
I feel like Darth Vader after choking his first admiral in the morning!
|
||||
| Shatterpoint |
ROFL
|
||||
| Jedi Abba |
haha....you feel pretty special
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Ha ha, nice new sig. It is awesome. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Yeah figure I should start rotating it every once in awhile, I've had that old one up for weeks... Months? I think I have an idea for this one though... | ||||
| Darth Samuel |
yeah, it says cylon in aurabesh. | ||||
| Anakin |
Those are great Clone Wars art! You should make some Anakin as a Jedi Knight in clone wars style. And how do you get photoshop by the way? | ||||
| Darth Samuel |
you buy it | ||||
| Dork of Mordork |
...Wow, really? Lol, just playin.
Well, I'd suggest getting PhotoImpact Pro. You can buy the software at... whatever store has it, lol. |
||||
| Rive Caedo |
 
Glee!
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Ha ha, awesome. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
The forumtroopers (Er... Forumcylons?) are watching you!
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
ME?!!? They couldn't be... *covers Rive's sig with hand*
See! See! |

| Rive Caedo |
In my never ending quest for improvement... I did a redo on some parts that were annoying me.
Redo 
Old 
Don't have an eye for detail? Here's what changed... 1. I didn't know how to compresss repetitive images (Stuff that doesn't move). I was forced to leave out the "Rive Caedo" because it doubled the data size of the image... (The old version is actually two seperate images next to eachother) Now it's all one image with hardly any increase in data size. 2. I was forced to compress the colors in the old one (Using 32 colors instead of 256+) to keep the data size now. Because all the non-moving parts are now block loaded I saved so much space I could use the full colors now. Makes the eye look better and more "blended" most obviously. 3. The right Cylon's eye no longer grows as it goes to the left, it shrinks just like when it goes to the right. 4. The left Cylon's eye no longer simply vanishs when it hits the front of the Cylon, it now turns the corner. 5. The left Cylon's eye shrinks as it follows the track to the right, like it should. Also here's the two versions of the little banner I threw together for Sam for translating the Aurabesh in the wallpaper further below. 
The Aurabesh he translated runs down the sides of this wallpaper I made. 
It reads "The Galaxy Shall Suffer"
|
||||
| Lady Saber |
I LOVE THAT!!! I'm gonna use it as my desktop background if it's ok with you. That's just awesome, Rive.
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
That's what I uploaded it for
|
||||
| Lyn Korak |
So.... how can you so to say .... learn Aurebesh? | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Practice Practice Practice
|
||||
| Dork of Mordork |
Not to rush you, but are you gonna do the Shaak wallpaper?
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Maybe, I think I'll go for a Clone Wars theme though, not realistic.
Also of note Lyn is this... 
Good first worksheet. It's the only piece of Aurebesh that appears in the films and actually means something... Well... The 2004 DVD made "Tractor beam" appear in aurebesh in Episode IV too. |
||||
| Lyn Korak |
That doesnt look too hard ... it might be. I dunno.

||||
| Rive Caedo |
It means that this image... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e0/Anakinturnaround.PNG
Appears on the viewscreen in the cockpit of the N-1 fighter Anakin is using in episode 1. It's what R2-D2 tells Anakin to do. There's a bunch of Aurebesh in Return of the Jedi... But it doesn't mean anything. It's giberish. |
||||
| Lyn Korak |
Okay then. Thanks.
|
||||
| Darth Samuel |
I know it. I won't tell. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
They were too large files to use as an actual avatar, but here's some more shiny examples of my GIF work.
Grah, still annoyed that I couldn't get the files small enough to make 'em an avatar.  
|
||||
| Jaden Nightsaber |
Am I allowed to tell what it means? | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
I don't care either way
|
||||
| Jedi Abba |
I know what it says
"Anakin turn the ship around and back home right away" |
||||
| Rive Caedo |
"Anakin turn the ship around and back home right away"
ooooo sooooo close "Anakin turn the ship around and go back home right away" |
||||
| The Chosen One |
Aurabesh is too hard, I think I will stick with English and Spanish. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Can't learn if you don't try. |
||||
| The Chosen One |
su demasiado difícil |
||||
| Rive Caedo |
No pienso que es | ||||
| The Chosen One |
Well it is hard  I'm getting a headache from looking at it
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Suppose I should link over there to the headache causing Aurebesh
http://rebels.myfreeforum.org/ftopic1659.php If you see a datapad image. I did it. Charts and such? No.
|
||||
| Obi-Tyler |
I really like the aurebesh translations! I finished the first one. You should've already gotten it in my PM. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Yep, only recieved 2 responces thus far (including yours). Not replying to any of them until I post the official answer (and next puzzle) tomorrow.
|
||||
| Darth Samuel |
the other was me. kidding. this is too easy.
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Just recieved a third translation. Enough to make it worth my time. Huzzah!
Everything now is just gravy. |
||||
| Lyn Korak |
Rive, I think I am getting the hang of this Aurebesh. Some of the Aurebesh 'letters' look like English, lol. | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
If you twist your head on alot of them
|
||||
| Lyn Korak |
Lol. yeah, i noticed that.
*Rubs neck* |
||||
| Rive Caedo |
Here's a font that reads as english, but looks like Aurebesh. I love it
|
||||
| Lyn Korak |
Cool, Rive. | ||||
| Obi-Tyler |
That's awesome! | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
Another propaganda poster for my Forumtroopers
Not sure if I ever linked the original one in this thread... So here's that one too 
|
||||
| Rive Caedo |
3D and sabers oh my!This appears to be my earliest attempt to do some 3D animation (6.4 MB download)(Credit for Star Destroyer conversion goes to Night4554) (Credit for the Falcon conversion goes to Lance Brown) (Credit for the TIE Fighter goes to Jim Bassett) Looks pretty lousy. The camera is jumpy and overall it's just not good. It was my first attempt at working in a 3D modeling program (Blender) though, so I give it some credit.
If anyone likes it I might upload some more recent attempts.
Things to watch for: Me being stupid and trying to do a barrel roll on my first attempt at animating... Took forever to figure out how to make it look even half-decent. The "boost" noise I used as the Falcon does the barrel roll is actually an amplified sound the time machine makes in Back to the Future if I recall correctly.
The Falcon is waaaay too big in comparison to the star destroyer (the TIE even more so). I wasn't really worried about scale though
If that wasn't enough here's something else! Note: You'll need the DivX codec to play these. I was trying to keep the size down on the files. (www.divx.com I took this stunt footage (thanks to theforce.net) and added sabers, clashes, and sounds to it. The right side of Maul's saber is a bit crooked at the end and the clashes should have had some transparency applied... But overall I'm pretty happy with this one. Sabered Footage (2.1 MB Download) |

| Butler_Swan |
whoa! do you think you could make a 3D animation of just a ship flying towards coruscant for me to use in my fan film? | ||||
| Rive Caedo |
If I could, it wouldn't be for awhile
|
||||
| Butler_Swan |
I can wait until august. | ||||
| DraliigandKeto |
that's good sith wise at least | ||||
| Jaden Nightsaber |
The animations was great for a first try. But I think there are also physics problems with it. Like when the star destroyer first comes out of hyperspace it seems to float around as if it was just placed in water. But overal very good. | ||||
