On the whole I am enjoying it. I’ve been wanting to get more familiar with it. The only thing I dont like is how the professor grades, but that’s got nothing to do with Photoshop. We’re using version CS4, which made our books moot since they were for CS3. It’s also given me a chance to refamiliarize myself with Apples, since I havent regularly used one since elementary school.
Alright, here is Assignment #6, which I particularly like:

Neat! I like the subtlety of the filters you used and how old you made it feel.
That’s really cool! I love the colours and the tone of the photo, it has a sort of nice ye olde worlde feeling.
Okay, so, back to traditional art! I previously mentioned doing something from Life of Brian and here it finally is! I had been trying 3 times to get a drawing of Michael Palin correct!

Nice! I love his expression! The shading is really well done and I like how you handle his hair. I used to have a problem drawing/shading hair.
Excellent shading and values…very neat and amazing sketch. Great job on all his features and his expression. 
Thank you muchly people! I was so happy it finally worked! I tried him once last summer, once last fall, and I was getting really frustrated.
Hannahmation- Hair can sometimes be hit-and-miss for me as well! Sometimes the face turns out great, but I screw up on the hair. I thought that was gonna happen this time since the laurel wreath was hard to make out, but thankfully I got it to work.
Great job on the picture lennonluvr.
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
lennonluvr9 – I just wanted to say that you’re very good at drawing people. =)
lennonluvr: You’re welcome. I can’ t wait to see more.
Thanks guys! I have a couple ideas floating around of what I want to do next, we’ll just have to see what I feel up to.
So here’s another Photoshop assigment, this time using layers to make a picture of something you couldnt actually photograph. The guy in the pic is from the Beatles sound alike band Liverpool, and I think it looks good, although my teacher had other opinions…

I say it looks pretty good…it’s so neat that the pictures seem to coexist as one and they appear to go together. Good job.
Well thanks! I thought it was pretty good too. My teacher showed me what he what he wanted it to look like (basically by changing almost everything about it) but I’m not sure why that made what I did wrong.
Well after almost a year I’ve done another Beatle drawing! And I guess now I should go for the set:

The Star Trek bug bit me too So here we are, young Mr. Spock:

And yeah…this guy’s been first and foremost in my mind for the past 2 1/2 weeks:

Really great portraits, lennonluvr9! You really have a knack for capturing their likenesses! Your shading is wonderful, makes them look quite realistic! Keep it up!
