Fluttering Flags

310 views6 repliesLast post: 11/20/2007
I'm trying to make a fluttering flag and I can't find anything on the web. There was some stuff a while ago from Sandy Blair in the Filter Factory. They had a filter in Gallery B for PS3 but it all seems to have been removed from the web. Anybody got any ideas? I have tried doing it in GIMP following a but without much success. My skills don't seem to be honed enough.

someone posted awhile back how to do this with a displacement map

someone else suggested taking the flat graphic of a flag and using the wave and warp, shear etc
filter>liquefy may work too

Here's a tutorial I made a while back.

Thanks George, that will do nicely.

I looked at your website and it brought back some fond memories. I used to visit the RAF site at Alness, when I was at RNAS Lossimouth, back in the 60's, and we had a friend at the Teaninich Still who was very generous. I also had a friend who was the Exciseman at the one in Dingwall which had closed but was used to store the Talisker.

Oddly enough, It was your Saltire which I found in Google Images which started me off on this track. I want to do one with a logo in the centre for my website site about our krinklies club.

Hi Ian,

I was stationed at RNAS Lossiemouth in 1968 and again in 1970/71. It was a great place. I really liked my time there. I was at the Air Ordnance Workshops, 736 squadron and NASU, (Naval Air Support Unit), right on the far side of the airfield. In late 1971 I was re-trained as a Photographer at the Joint Services Photography School which was at Lossiemouth at the time.

The Teannich distillery is still here, but there have been quite a few changes round here since those days.

Good luck with you website project.
