Can you tell I'm stressed at work?

Apr 15, 2013 00:31

Work stress = more photoshopping! I've had these two manips half finished for ages, so I decided to finally finish them up in a futile attempt to not be so tense. There's one Rose x Nine and one Rose x Ten.

Other than Nine being shirtless, everyone is full clothed, and nothing's racier than a magazine ad.



Poster-y Ten/Rose smooches:




icon!


Nine smouldering, because that's all I can make him do:



ETA: livejournal doesn't like the Nine/Rose picture, and I can't figure out why. The direct link to the image is here, and it apparently also displays fine at the dreamwidth link below.

notes:
I started both of these so long ago I don't really remember much about the first 1/2 of making them, so. Also, as you can tell, I was really experimenting with textures with these, hopefully it's not too annoying.

Ten/Rose: So I thought this picture would be super cute, but when I finished it, it somehow became less cute and sort of...boring? I dunno. So I made it into a poster, which I think makes it a little more interesting. I really liked the vintage feel of the original pic. I didn't have to change them too drastically. Rose was too short so I put her in heels, and I gave her a ponytail. Ten was a bit short, and I had to stripe his suit, which you can't see very well under the texture. I changed the Doctor's shoes too, and added some graphic bits because the background was plain white.

Nine/Rose: I almost gave up on this one several times, because I couldn't get it to work, and it's still not great but I figured I'd post anyway as some people might like it anyway? Basically I really liked the picture but the models had bodies not found in nature and their entertwined-ness made it very difficult to change their bodies to more Rose/Nine-ness. Rose looks halfway okay, Nine is still a bit too buff. Basically, I completely changed most parts of their body, then redrew the background around them. The faces I chose were terrible quality, and harshly lit, but they were the only ones I liked, because apparently I like making things difficult. So I worked to fix the lighting, added more grain to blend (the original had a ton of film grain) and give it a photo feel, and then I added a bit of effects- some overlay and watercolor and a bit of a color wash. I'm still not thrilled, but it's not getting any better. My notes this time are kind of meh aren't they? Hmmm.

Comments are super amazing and make me smile a lot!

(in general, I totally don't mind if people repost stuff I've made or use anything I've made for icons/banners/in other art/etc., just please credit me so other people can find it, don't use it for nefarious purposes (i.e. bashing other ships) and please ask first if you want to actually change anything.)
