Old House

This is the starting image for the Old House Tutorial .












This my finished version of the Old House tutorial. I used the clone stamp, brush tool, and layer effects to reach my end result. Overall, it could be much better with more time and effort, and a larger starting image would also be helpful when altering little details of the house.

Marlin Painting

This is my finished painting of Marlin. It was incredibly time consuming (I'm a perfectionist sooo thats why on that), but I really enjoyed working on it. This image is done entirely by mouse.

To create it, I stuck basically to the magic wand tool, basic brush, and smudge tool. Smudge is used the most... and eraser tool... that one was pretty critical :P.

Overall, there are parts where I could work on the colors and blending but I'm fairly pleased with the end result.

I didn't make the end result as special as the tutorial person did. I may come back and finish the background in my free time. If done again, I would definitely use a tablet. Good fun tutorial, though.

Google Parody


This is my final result for the Google Parody image. I used different opacity changes and layering to create the final result. The techniques weren't overly difficult to use or apply.
