The Rasterbation thread - I do it with Mom! Edition - General

These are hard to make look good. Makes me want to buy a huge printer.

I rasterbated a christmas tree last year instead of getting a tree.

I think I might do this one that DrChernobyl posted in LMAO pics. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/DwsRX.jpg[/IMG] Just hope it's big enough... Edit: It's done! turned out alright, might have been better with a smaller dot size, and better taping. [url]http://i.imgur.com/Y7vga.jpg[/url] Edit#2: Well, looks like garry removed img_thumb...

Our shop got in a solid ink printer so before we scrapped it I went ahead and used the last of the solid ink. [url=http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a166/ballsandy/100_1129.jpg]Snipped to hide[/url] I went out and bought an Xacto knife and tape and spent the afternoon splicing all the pages together. It's a fucking art I tell you just to make it all line up.

These things are awesome for rasterbating. Edit: Hey Cosmic Duck, where did you find that HL2 poster? I can't find it anywhere that I can consider good because the resolution is so small or [url=http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs5/i/2004/331/4/e/Half_Life_2_Wallpaper_2_by_alias353.jpg]bloomed to fuck[/url] and what dot pitch did you use?

And what dot size did YOU use, looks like it's just scaled and not rasterbated at all.

[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_ink[/url] The dot pitch isn't anything good (2, which explains why you can't actually see any dots) and that's totally my fault as I ran that as a test and ended up using the last of the ink. Actually, wait you are right, this ISN'T a rasterbation. Lemme go snip that out.

[img]http://s1.postimage.org/i93l9bq1/Rasterbating.jpg[/img] I really like how this one came out

[img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/checkyourheadraster1.jpg[/img] Might as well bump the thread with my rasterbation. Now there's no ink left in my printer :v:

[QUOTE=Spoof;30664467]I did a Deadmau5 and Skrillex one. I personally like the dottiness of them, it adds a bit of uniqueness.[IMG]http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/5340/1000600f.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/9895/1000613uv.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE]I think I may do the Skrillex one as a moving gift for my brother.

I need to do a bunch movie posters this way.

Does anyone here have a really high-res picture of either Rise Against's logo or the Cover Art for The Sufferer And The Witness? I already have them in about 1600^2, but if anyone has anything bigger of either of them then it would help a lot. Also, what is the ideal size of an image to rasterbate?

And even then it will still make it wonky and possibly really shitty looking. If it has a lot of detail then it will be shitty looking. "What would you do then?

Do remember that it is a CD cover though so even if you got the original for it it wouldn't necessary be bigger than that anyways.

Not something so ridiculously nerdy and obscure that nobody will "get it", but I don't mind stuff a little in that direction.

[QUOTE=Chubbs;30993188]Thanks man, I'll probably post the results when I have replaced the colour cartridge in my printer, this takes up a lot of ink.[/QUOTE] I printed 25 pages while my printer told me the ink was low :smug:

What's a good dot size? I'm doing a 4x4 of this: [url]http://www.jodrellbank.manchester.ac.uk/astronomy/nightsky/yuriearth.jpg[/url]

[QUOTE=ProWaffle;31024338]What's a good dot size? I'm doing a 4x4 of this: [url]http://www.jodrellbank.manchester.ac.uk/astronomy/nightsky/yuriearth.jpg[/url][/QUOTE] Why do people keep asking that? Just use the default, or put in an even smaller size for getting a looking-good-from-close-up image. And I don't think that image will make for a good rasterbation anyways, too detailed. But sure, go ahead.

Would it be possible to rasterbate this picture so that it still looks good? [thumb]http://wallbase2.org/rozne/beab547443fd888a201bffb6c0de3a27/wallpaper-1160618.jpg[/thumb]

And I'd say it'd be rather difficult, seeing how there are many small details - I'd rather try scaling it up and printing it as is.

what happens if you rasterbate a rasterbated picture

[QUOTE=frankie penis;31106755]what happens if you rasterbate a rasterbated picture[/QUOTE] We need to go deeper.

Found this thread yesterday, seems very cool. Decided to have a go myself: [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/Bild0335.jpg[/img] (It's the box art for the old PS2 game ICO, and yeah camera sucks)

[IMG]http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/ajackss/bedroom_desk.png?t=1311097048[/IMG] Finally got a resemblance of a desk in my bedroom complete, really happy with it. Next on the agenda is wall shelves, artwork, and desk organizer goodies. Here's some other pictures from my bedroom if you're wondering, [img]http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/ajackss/bedrarm.png?t=1311098769[/img] [img]http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a345/ajackss/shelves.png?t=1311098788[/img] I need to migrate some of my DVD collection up to my room, it's bare up here (blame netflix and HTPC's with home network acess to over 600 films)

[QUOTE=Ajacks;31211284] Pictures and stuff [/QUOTE] To go a bit off-topic, looks outright amazing, that room. Is that a refrigerator next to your desk, though? I hated when I had mine in my bedroom, it was a bitch to get to sleep at the beginning.

[QUOTE=Ajacks;31211284]stuff[/QUOTE] i love the colour scheme you got going on there
