I really love the graphic. I think the coloring and texturing is amazing! From the thumbnail it just looked like a crazy blob so I wasn't expecting much and then I opening it and BAM! Wow! :D
hehe, Scamming 101. You know, like Biology 101 or Psychology 101 :P I was joking around.
When somebody gives you a $100 note to buy something cheap, that's textbook scamming because if you "mess up" the change then they get a bigger amount in the end. Get it?
It's like, if you gave me $5 and bought something that was $1 and I gave you $4 change. But say you thought I'd only given you $2, then I'd give have to you $2 to make up for the money I "didn't give you". But if you were buying something with a hundred dollar note that was $1, and I supposedly messed up the change, you could end up with $50 extra. Which, by the way, is exactly what happened yeserday. I checked :(
Make sense now? I want it to make sense so you can feel my pain.
Wow, cool play with colour! What layer modes (if any) did you use? I'm either guessing inverse or difference? I've tried so hard to get something to work like this, psychadelic you know? It just doesn't come out right. Great job :)
Thing is, I don't have photoshop! I cant get to grips with it, so a psd file wont work. Thanks for the offer though, that was really generous of you :D
I kinda got inspired to work with difference again - but guess what? not working lol. I figured there would be millions of layers, but its just, my brian just keeps softening everything up instead of leaving it eccentric and wild. Maybe its just my style you kno? Ima keep at it.
I think the trick is to be able to see where the exclusion layers make it look awesome and where they look make it look terrible, and similarly when to mask and when not to. For example, if I left the exclusive layers unmasked you wouldn't be able to make out her face in the center, but if I had masked more it wouldn't be nearly as dramatic, yeah?
Can I see what you made?
Oh, and if it helps, I had the original layer duplicated and set on exclusion, but offset and then duplicated and rotated etc, rather than using a colour layer or texture on exclusion.
