Riding the Vaporwave Trend- How to

in #vaporwave8 years ago

So you've been stumbling around the net wondering what on earth is vaporwave? Nevertheless you want to join in the fun and make some A E S T H E T I C vaporwave edits, but don't know where to start. You'll want to start looking around for image files such as vaporwave busts, avatars, devil emoticons, smileys, transparency backgrounds.... yes why do all the hard work when they are all available online free? Roll over Lichtenstein!

Well here are my selected top vaporwave png packs in 2016 from around the internet, (tumblr, deviantart, instagram) to get you started on your journey- edit away with these generous copyright free images from the following authors. Please check out their works while on their sites, and like me if you appreciated, take a few seconds to say thanks.

So every generic vaporwave edit firstly needs to reference a classical statue, this is where we go straight to:

Acidwinzip's Amazing Roman Statue PNG Pack:

Obviously, you're going to need the "classics" and you might want something different that the often used "David" statue from Michelangelo. Great for something like an album cover in the style of Aesthetic Memes or Macintosh Plus.

Next you'll want some sort of 3D background to put this guy, so that's where we head straight for:

Vaporwave 3D architectural PNG byStockpack

So usually this is where you would put a swimming pool, some foliage or a greek 3d Classical architect background. Plenty can be found if you can be bothered to go on Google Sketchup files. If you're just lazy check out:

If you have software for 3DS files, you can also download and add a couple Greek columns or pillars while you're at it- Download without registration at : Archive3d
