so i had this idea for a collab..

(READ ARTICLE)


my idea is to write a shader for someone's pencil drawing and turn it into something like one of these
(on the bottom are the original drawings)

what are shaders?

those are short pieces of code for gpus (dedicated (card) or integrated) to execute. they are mostly used in games and there are several types of them, but the one i use is called "fragment" (or pixel) shader.

in glsl (fast programming language for gpus) i have a callback function "effect" that i write, but is called back by the gpu. inside it i can do all sorts of fun things - fragment shaders modify the final color of the pixel, but i can grab a neighboring pixel from anywhere too!

i can even import a second image, like a mask to cover all things that are meant to glow!


who will i collab with?

anyone! or.. almost, i might be picky. ^^'
just post your pencil drawing in the comments!

ill make a few conditions tho:

  • (new) tell me if you're in, so i know if someone cares lol

  • take a good picture of it, make sure the paper is not crumbled and the light is even. it will make it easier to work with ^^'

  • describe your idea for the final product and be creative! ;p
