Gettin' Out of the Boat...

Life's been so busy I have neglected to post much of anything even though there's been lots of stuff going on.

This week I did a photo collage for work. Here's a copy of the final HD sermon slide.

Get Out of the Boat - Sermon Title Slide

Here are some of the pieces I had to work with:
Used a tiny bit of water texture from this picture:

Found some random splashes and waves to create the wake for the boat. Used various splash brushes (from deviant art packs, brushezzy?) to make the water on the prow look a tad more realistic.

Then I added lots of different adjustment layers and did some warping, etc... was fun making all of those bits and pieces look like they all belonged in the scene. I probably should have blurred the wake splashes a little more... these things are never "done" - just done enough because of time restraints - but it was lots of fun and I hope everyone likes it.

Sculpture: Man's Face and a Hand

     I've been watching a lot of Ace of Clay on Youtube recently and really wanted to try some of his techniques but I wasn't at home that day.  Dad has some super soft stanky clay that he uses to work out some of his carvings and so I got into that this week. Maybe it's time to pull out my sculpture stuff again. Really do miss it - I enjoy that more than I do writing or drawing or... probably even eating LOL  Anyway... this clay was really soft stuff and it was hard to keep from smashing it or doing any real detail work - I mean, look at those ears HA!
