Daily Blog Post #36

Today I started a new photoshop tutorial, its about undressing a giraffe. It looks pretty long but the outcome is funny. I got the idea from manny which had already done it and told me about it. So hopefully I don't take that long.

Today I started a tutorial in Photoshop.
At first I was trying to somehow make a smoke effect on illustrator with the twirl tool, it looked alright but it wasn't what I was going for. So I went on google and searched up a smoke text tutorial and found one. It should cone out good.

I finshed another most dope co logo.This one is really simple and it took me two days to complete, it is very simple and empty and I think thats what bothered me.So I tried adding stuff on but I remembered that sometimes white space can be useful.Here it is, it all started with a text so it may look way to blank...

Completed Blue Slide Park project

I finished the Blue Slide Park project today. So when I began I used the image of the original Blue Slide Park as reference I made the hills on illustrator and got the background on stockxchange.Then on photoshop I opened up the hills and put the background on a layer under. After i moved around the background and transformed it a bit so the only thing visible was what I wanted. Then I used one of the Dry brushes on Photoshop to draw the slide. Then I used illustrator for the text made the font a path and added an artistic stroke to the path.This is my final image... I believe it looks pretty similar.

Today I kept working on the Blue Slide Park project. I fixed up the hills on illustrator so they actually resembled the original ones. I also fixed up the background so it looked better. I think I'll be done with it by friday.

Today I started a new project which is trying to make a Blue Slide Park album cover replica. I made a few triangles in Illustrator and put them into Photoshop. Then I put a sketchpad texture as the background, something I used in a typography tutorial, and put it together.
I found a texture that almost looked like the original and put it inside the triangles. I'm going to work on it some more tomorrow.
