Scar Tutorials

[mylittleboyblue]

I didn't know where to post this, so I posted it here. I was wondering if anyone knew of any tutorials that teach you how to make realistic scar tattoo layers. 

 

Thanks :)

You need Photoshop, Gimp or some other program that has layers and allows you to save a png with a transparent background. As to realistic scars, do you mean burn scars or knife scars? Wild animal bite scars? You would probably just need to find good refetence material somewhere online.

I have photoshop. Knife scars was what I was looking to make, for personal use.

I searched and there aren't any scar tutorials apparently but there are several tutorials on the web on how to make tattoos for Second Life. My advice would be to learn to how make and place a tattoo on the exact location on your avatar where you want the scar to be. Once you figure it out the next step is to replace the tattoo with a scar. As for creating the actual scar, you could take a screenshot of your body location, open it in Photoshop, and draw out a scar on a new layer using the color picker tool to select your own skin tones.
