==Behind the Runes==
(coming The series was made when HK was trying to experiment with some wallpaper he was making. His Cinematic Demon V2, wallpaper was suppose to have burning runes that were going to be on the 4 corners of the border but that was considered too flashy, but he thought it would be a neat idea to make the other 29 runes in the same fashion. So over the period of 10 days HK made each rune.  How he did it was simple, he used the old d2 runes from the Arreat Summit page, and created a new image layer, and started drawing on top of the old runes, as best he could. After he managed to draw the rune, he added a red glow, then copied and pasted the drawn rune again and colored it yellow, and did a glow blur. Then he used the Add effect that brightened the layer, giving the glow for the runes, and didn’t need to make an orange copy because the glow was so radiant.  [Reg runes pic] [Fiery Runes]  After he made those runes he used a graphics plug-in, to help him space them out into a nice circle fashion, and spaced out fairly evenly. Thus the runecircle was born.  [Pic of the star plugin] [pic of the old runecircle]  Not to long after the runecircle was made he used a 3d warp tool and made the runecircle like it was laying in a perspective angle so that anything could look like it was standing inside the circle. Thus creating the standard for what the series would be bound to using from there on.  [Angled Circle]  Midway through the second series HK realized his old runecircle was getting fuzzy, blurry and really hard to see. So he chose to rebuild the runes again, and this time using the same methods from the first time making the runes. This time only blowing up the original rune images by 400 times the original size, to make them that much sharper.  [the blown up image size] [Large Fiery Rune]  As before HK zoomed out as he drew with his mouse the runes intricately and as best he could. The images when they were done were large enough on the wallpaper standards at the time for that series; as large as almost the full wallpaper. These runes were also redone on a new runecircle, done with the same plug-in effect, but because the image was so large the plug-in messed up so HK had to manually enlarge the star effect. It took him 4 times to get the runes to match up in spacing to match closely enough to the old runecircle.  [Old Circle] [New Circle]  From there on HK used the new runecircle for the rest of his series.  More to come soon)!
