The Rasterbation thread - I do it with Mom! Edition
288 replies, posted
I remember doing this a long time ago, in my old computer room. I started relatively small, with a 2x3 mudkip, and it just got stupider from there. I'll spare you the photos, but there's still a 5x7 sheet, full colour poster covering one of the walls. If I ever replace it, I'll post pictures :v:
Yes, I'm getting better at it. While this is only a 2x2 sheet, I think it's very pretty. Inspired by Superwafflez BMW.

If you're wondering why I'm doing smaller ones first, this is why:

These are being made at my workplace, which happens to be a fucking cyber-caffe, hnng
I'm planning something big on the next weekend.
Just a tip, but I found out that printing them on a laser printer kind of folds the paper onto a U shape, making the assembly a lot harder.

Looks better in the picture imo
This by the way

I'll try to get a better picture later.
Does this count?

You should consider lowering the size of 'em dots.
It really helped me to achieve what I wanted.
Also, before rasterbating it, do what Daijitsu said and increase the contrast in photoshop.
Edit:
I lied, coco911231 said that.
I did one of these before, I decided to do one again.
My camera is pretty crappy

I thought you were supposed to look at it from a distance :suicide:
I would make something like this but my parents would yell at me for wasting ink.
I should tell my sister about this.
This rasterbation stuff is fucking amazing!
Someone should Rasterbate this:

yep...
I tried my hand at rasterbation (teehee) and this is what I came up with. I decided not to use a shit ton of color ink so the picture is a little bit more boring than the color counterpart, but I think it still turned out pretty good!

[QUOTE=Luafox;30427015]I want that[/QUOTE]
Avatar fits so perfectly to that post.
I'm digging through all my crap to find something worth putting up. I can print any of my photos at 72 dpi and reach 69"x45" and it'll still look damn sexy as a whole, albeit my printer will hate me. Might just settle for a black'n'white shot and make it all dotty, it'd look good as an installation in the office.
Since it's my photo studio, I want to keep it serious... so I guess this latest bit is out of the question- [url]http://ploader.net/files/b7d0f6e9325bd5be9f15785012460859.jpg[/url]
if someone wants to suggest something, I've got a ton of junk in the photo section to dig through, or you can request a fullsize for your own use. :buddy: [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1089604-Dai-s-Photoworks?p=30452212#post30452212][shameless advertising of my thread][/url]

where the hell did I put my paper slicing thinger, it's perfect for trimming straight edges off paper :argh:

I have one, but it looks like that the white edges on sheets of paper are actually overlaying the image, as in if I cut them out then the line between sheets of paper would be a little offset, nothing much, but I'm not sure which way it would look better.
I guess the next image I'll do, I'll cut the edges off :)
I started to do it, but my printer ran out of ink and I have no extras D:
I wish my printer wasn't in a perpetual state of "NO FUCK YOU I DON'T HAVE INK" so I could do one of these.
Also, is it just me that finds the white lines from the margins of each piece of paper oddly charming? It gives it a sort of style as opposed to just being a large image spanning multiple sheets of paper.
I'm so doing one of these. So you basically print multiple pages after rasterbating and put them together?
I might do this later.

I hate how my printer leaves white edges around the pages.

Every printer does that.
It's a safety mechanism so that the printer wouldn't print on itself accidentally.
and [GriM],
yep. :v:

Yeah but I noticed it leaves out some dots so I can't even cut the edges. Or does the program do that?
