Final



Here is what I submitted for my final.

After submitting the above design, i few suggestions were made for the fonts in the title and sub title so I resubmitted this one:



My Grade for this class was an A!

Pre final decisions



Well we are into the final week of classes and it has come down to picking the ad to submit for the final. Here are the two different layouts I will be deciding on which one to use.

Photo manipulation


This is the original picture I choose to work with. Patch and Mittens sitting together when they were 12. (not a common site)

Our assignment was to desaturate a color picture, use a twirl on the red channel and then document the changes that take effect, here is the photo after the adjustments.

Fire Type

Our next assignment was to make a sign with fire type and texture the word black. I used the word Peace for this one and used plastic as the texture for black.



I had so much fun doing the fire type I thought I would do a picture for a relative, I played a little and came up with these two designs.


Colorization of B&W photos

We are learning how to colorize a black & white photo. I had one from when I was little and used it. I will show both the original and the colored version.

Ice Cream ad x3

Here are my three drafts for the sketches I did earlier. We need to pick one to go forward with.





The BananaMan draft started out like this.

Serreal Environment

For this assignment I used a stock photo of Venus and other photos I had taken of my sister and her horses to make a fantasy of horseback riding on Venus.

Sketches for Ice Cream Ad

Here are my sketches for the ice cream ad, along with a logo. We had to scan these into the software so that the instructor could see our capabilities in this realm.

New Class, New Thought Process

I have a new tool to use with my computer. It is a tablet which lets me draw like I would on a piece of paper. For practice we had to draw something to do with an ad for an ice cream vendor. I thought of a building that would specialize in high end deserts, so I made a big top...


I also thought of having fruit characters promoting different deserts, like a banana split.



From the comments the BananaMan won.

Wings in Blue

Here is a set of wings that I did not submit but that I liked.
