All gears are moving still not perfect need to tune but not tonight daughter got ill… minute hand under right piece of snake gives an awesome efect in my opinion added holes where snake gets in makes it even more plastic also added some slight shadows to the snakeparts. No idea how to make gifs pls teach me :slight_smile: no glass effect and no moving bezel :slight_smile:
Here a video: https://plus.google.com/u/0/101305313365378800596/posts/NCjZFUeixPY

@Jurgen_Oberst The idea is good, but there are small minuses (no offense).

  1. The shadow of the tail of the snake has too clear and even edges, you need to blur the shadow, so that the edges are not so clear.
  2. That part of the tail that comes out of the hole should not be expanded much, so that the tail at the outlet of the hole was not much thicker.
  3. Two cogwheels are black and white, which need to be rotated more beautifully or something … they probably need to make smaller teeth. As it is not very, they look both. It is necessary to make them approximately like a golden gear, here its kind is excellent. And these two are some that are not beautiful in my opinion. :slight_smile:

Your daughter - a speedy recovery! To be ill is always bad even for an adult, and even worse, when the children are ill.

P/S I’m doing an animation in Photoshop. I import the frames of the video into layers, and after exporting for the web to the GIF file

@Casper_69 Hi thanks for the feedback mate. I wrote above that’s still not perfect I wanted to show which direction I am heading to for the fact 3 moth ago i didn’t even know what gimp and facemaking even is never worked with the programs before it’s a huge progress for me. It seems u have some experience in photoshop i would invite you to download WFD and join the adventure of making faces :slight_smile: would be great to see your results of imagination referred to this particular watchface. I can provide you the work we already did altogether so u would just need to finish and finetune. Thanks for the kind words for my daughter! Have a nice day everyone! Greets

@Jurgen_Oberst No, you will forgive me, but I’m afraid that the work in this program(WFD) is not for me :slight_smile:
I do not do much else. I’m a video designer, I do not own a lot of Photoshop software. And to make skins for hours is not mine, sorry. I believe that everyone should do what he does well. Personally, I do not even know which side to approach the program - WFD
And my criticizing words - you do not be offended.
I know by myself, when you work for a long time over something, especially so small, then the eye ceases to objectively perceive and evaluate its work. A look from the side, immediately tell all the minor errors, if they are available :slight_smile:
Therefore, when someone criticizes about a particular work, this does not mean that he does not like the result, it means that he wants the master to do it even better and improve :slight_smile:

@Casper_69 o have just seen the gears are moving wrong directions it’s because of the engine of my watch has a problem with it, should work fine on xseries but I am kind of done with this face since its a hobby and I don’t have to much time either and want to move on to new ones. And also as I mentioned i made as a personal version for my own use. If someone wants as it will be final then I will share. WFD is easy fun and highly addictive hehe u should try it mate. At no point I felt offended I am boss of about 140 people and need to feedback them about their quality of work everyday I know that feedback is important! Stay warm and healthy! Greets:-)

@Jurgen_Oberst No, you did not understand me. I wrote not that the wheels are spinning in the wrong direction, but I wrote that these wheels are not very beautifully made. Their teeth are too big. That’s next to that golden wheel - it’s perfectly done, looks nice. A gray white side by side, not very pretty. And in what direction they rotate - it does not matter. In any case, for me it does not really matter. It’s important for me that everything looks beautiful, with the effect: “Wow !!!”

@Jurgen_Oberst For gif animation I use GifCam - free and very interesting tool where you can start simulation in WFD and you can record this animation. Polecam!

@Casper_69 I got you perfectly right mate. I just mentioned that I found that mistake of the watchengine not moving the directions It was intended to move if the gears are supposed to move one clockwise another counter clockwise it’s ok but both moving same direction is a mechanical no go :slight_smile: . As I stated I won’t put much more effort into this and move on. Greets

@Jacek_Klodzinski dzieki:-)

@Jurgen_Oberst Very sorry. You are good at this job.
If it’s not difficult for you, skip me please archive with your version of this skin.
Thanks in advance.

@Casper_69 will do but u have to wait when I am home from work should be sent at about 24:00 at night no chance to do it earlier. Greets

@Jurgen_Oberst Many thanks! I’m not in a hurry, this business is not that important. When you can then you can. I just want to see what’s inside this skin, what pictures it consists of, etc. :slight_smile:

@Victor_Often Hello. I do not see any animation, except for what the author did in his first version. In a word, your archive, this is the very first version, the author of this skin @Jacek_Klodzinski

@Victor_Often Forgive me, but I do not see any rotating elements here, except for one gear that the author himself made -

@Jurgen_Oberst Here’s about such gears, I wrote to you.
They do not look much more interesting than those that you put. Try these:

@Casper_69 give your email address I will send to her …

@Victor_Often kobra39@gmail.com

@Casper_69 those gears are not close enough to the original ones I prefer to stay as close as possible to the original pic we got from Jacek. The golden one in my version is almost the same as in the picture he posted and also the 2 others. I will optimize them but won’t change em to something that isn’t meant to be on the original watch. Soon I am home and will send u my version. Greets
