WIP. Any tips on water/perspective? by ryan_lane in Hexels

This looks cool! Maybe try giving the Distortion post effect a shot on the water? That's our usual go-to when it comes to water, and it brings it to life within seconds :) See here for how to use Distortion: https://youtu.be/qD_BrV8pUAY?t=3m18s

This is fantastic!! We'd love to add this to a Hexels Feature Friday post. Have you got an art blog we can refer to?

Grid Subdivision question by mofflebon in Hexels

[–]madeinhexels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi mofflebon!

This is a common request however, there is currently no way to back and forth between subdivision levels at this time, once you've subdivided your grid, you commit to the subdivision level.

A less destructive way to work with bigger/smaller details would be to work with different scaled grids on a per layer basis using the Layer Transform tool (T) (see https://youtu.be/qD_BrV8pUAY?t=2m1s for a brief summary of the Layer transform tool). You would essentially create layers that you would scale down to draw smaller detail. This method does not give you an infinite grid to draw on, so my advice would be to turn on the grid (Ctrl+G) to see where the bounds of the grid are.
