Lady Rainicorn

I'm so excited that this is finished! I think it's amazing. I spent maybe 2 weeks working on it in class. It's pretty easy to make once you get the hang of Photoshop. :D

Heck yeah

This was quick and easy and fun and I like it mmmkay? Mmkay. Instead of using Photoshop I used Illustrator.

My Little Cutie, Finn c:

This was fun to make c: It took a while because I drew it on the computer, but it would've taken longer if I drew it on paper. I likes it. c:

Kitty Brush

Cats! on the beach! :) This is a really fun tool. I will be using this more in the future.

I Love Photoshop so muuuuch!

I want it :c

"Monsters" the Monster/Rocketship :)

A sweet little kindergarten class in Illinois sent us all monsters that they drew, and I was assigned Edin's. :) It took me a while to distinguish what his picture actually was...but with the help of TrAvIs lol we figured out that it's a rocket ship...monster. :)

GURRRRL I LYKE CHUR HURR


AFTER & BEFORE

I feel like this came out pretty successful. I mostly used the patch tool and spot correction tool. I used the burn tool to make highlights in her hair which is why I titled this what I did. I even made a song out of it lol. I used the Gaussian blur to make her skin appear a lot softer.

I think she's pretty in both.


This project was relatively easy. I took the Spot Healing Brush and Patch Tool the most. I plumped up her bottom lip a tad, and moved her eyebrows so she's like, "OH RLY NW?" I applied a Gaussian Blur all over her face. The only thing that I messed up was the right eye. By moving the eyebrow, it moved the eye also. I tried positioning it back to the way it was but it's a tad uneven. Most people wouldn't recognize it though.

Colour - Barbz



Nicki Minaaaaaaaaaaaaaj.
These came out pretty well! They literally only took like 2 minutes. There wasn't anything that didn't work about it, and if I were to do it again, I'd just experiment with other colours. I learned how to turn the photo into black and white (threshold) and I learned how to put color in it. ;)

I love how this came out! I hardly even know how I made the gradient for the background but it's really nice. I think mostly everything worked out. The bad part is I hardly remember how to do the gradients like I did. The picture was originally black and white and I added the gradient and matched the paint to it. I had a lot of different layers to make the paint appear as such but when I was finished we put them all into one layer. If I could redo this, I'd spend more time trying to make the paint purple and pink instead of blue and pink. That was the hardest part actually. You have to duplicate the paint layer and do all this stuff and click the grid button. I could probably redo it with some time and patience, but I'm pretty satisfied with it. c: From this piece I learned how to merge layers together, apply a gradient, and make it so you can still see the paint shadows and highlights.

RainBOW lol

Isn't this darling? I love love lleo LVOE bowties and my panda. This is just too qt.
ANYWAY, as you can tell by my excitement, I think this came out really well. Almost perfect. Maybe something that didn't go as well as it should have was the cropping of the Panda. I rushed through it because I wanted to finish it before the day was over. I should have feathered it. Also, the bows are equally spaced, but whatever. It's close enough. What did work was the color wheel. I was afraid it'd be too sharp but the gaussian blur helped a lot. What I learned was that to put something behind everything else, you drag the layer down to the bottom and how to use the 'color' tool.
:) :) :) :) :))

Just keep swimming~

I really like how this came out! Every edge is precise, so it looks real to me. This was a relatively easy project to complete because I was laying on a solid color parking lot, so I didn't have to do a lot of matching up or anything. The only thing that didn't really work was when I jumped. It's just a blurry picture, but it's so far away that it's kinda hard to tell. With the last two poses, Mr. Sands had to crop my leg and raise the opacity so it looks like I'm grabbing my own foot. The hardest part was simply trying to figure out how to start, but Travis helped me out. I thought I'd have to crop each one out and place them where they went, but that would've taken forever. I learned how to get all the photos in one spot and just erase around them. And I learned how to make the layers invisible in order to erase one photo at a time.

lol

I don't know, a flamingo got it on with a snake and this handsome fella came about.
I think this came out pretty good. The blending of the snake skin went pretty well. It looks like there's a shadow under every patch of snake skin that I put under the Flamingo, but you can't see it from a distance so it's okay. Erasing the ragged edges of the Flamingo went well and I colored the beak green, which was originally pink. The one thing that I don't think worked was blending the flamingo and snake together. The front end of the snake is darker and the print looks smaller, and the back end of the flamingo is lighter and the print is larger.That was the hardest part (and remembering how to make a new layer). The snakes' head was blocking the leaf at the bottom so I had to use the finger tool to cover the blank space up.

I learned how to select something and make a new layer out of it, even though I forgot lol. Aaaaaaaaaaaaand I learned how to blend the skin together. If I were to do this again I probably just wouldn't have chosen these two animals.

Posh

I love this! I think it's adorable and I was so eager to finish it. Mostly everything in this piece that needed to work, worked. Thanks Mr. Sands for teaching me how to feather and all that. If it wasn't for that it wouldn't have come out so nicely. I should have tried to warp the houndstooth a little more so it looks like it's wrapping around the rabbit. Mr. Sands told me to erase a little bit of the rabbit in places like the bottom of it's head and his stomach for definition. I wouldn't have thought about that on my own. From doing this I learned how to use feathering, darken, and erase parts of the animal that need to be defined.

Dinnertime.

This tounge came out pretty decent. I think I did an okay job with cloning the tounge onto the frog. I was worried about matching it up but it came out alright in the end. The vain on the bottom almost aligns together. The hardest part about this was remembering to switch the layers on and off. That messed me up big time when I was halfway done. The frog looks flat, but if it weren't for the shadow, it'd look even more flat. What I learned from working with this is using selection and inverse selection and how to add a shadow.

A Healthy Breakfast~

This is my delightful stack of mutant pancakes. Isn't it darling? Overall, I think it was a good experience, and that I did a good job. Not fantastic though, because the mouth isn't the same shade as the pancakes. Also, when I was cropping the mouth, I kept the blue parts of it, which I shouldn't have. But for my first time doing something like this, I think a decent job. What did work however was when I used the bloat and finger tool. I When trying to fit the mouth in, I didn't like how big it was. I thought it would've been too big if I left it the way it was. So I made the top and bottom of the mouth come closer to each other. If I were to redo this, I'd try harder to make the mouth the same color as the pancakes, and I wouldn't have kept the blue parts. But I did learn how to use the bloat tool, and how to lower the opacity of the mouth so you could see exactly how big to make the hole.

:)
