self created text effect week 12

Ok I posted a text effect i created 2 years ago when i 1st started in computer graphics design. it took almost every effect on the layer style and I ended up with.

wooden man week 11

Ok, this picture of the guy in the hoody is a picture I took from my computer graphics design class and they were doing tutorials on this picture with a stone texture so I took the liberty to do one of my own but with a tree bark looking texture. I took a picture of a tree in school and used it as a texture i messed with the blending modes and curves and I burned the eyes to to make them stand out and i gave it a bright yellow demonic look by changing the eye color. This was my final results

outter space look week 10

Ok I've been having an imagination block and i started getting out of it i did this in 3 days and i started building it little by little to the point where I got a space effect, and some light glowing from the girl. This stands out a lot and i think it catches my attention, but that's me. Also I've been working with the warp tool, brushes, blurs and the filters.

blending options Week 9

Ok on this design i just played wit the blending options on a picture i took outside, I think it looks intresting but not ordenary, also it makes the light look like its spreading, and getting bigger but the colors make the picture look chill and stand out especially the gum on the floor.

colorful water hose week 8

Ok, this is a new entry of my newest work its a water hose that has a flow of colorful water coming out. I've been working a lot with textures and blending modes lately so I can be use to making things look natural, but again look unique, and interesting. What I did was cut a section of a river, cleaned it, added texture, transformed, and added it to the water hose. I also used the blur and smudge tool to make the water coming out of the hose look more real, and  added a small but not much noticeable vignette around the picture, and added the purple onto the hose to make it look like its color coming out and not ordinary water. This whole design was a great turn out on me because it real caught a lot of my friends attention and i'ma keep trying more of the this things out.

photo modifications and fixtures week 7

Ok this was new thing for me , I edit a picture i got from stock exchange and turn it into a good and more capturing image...i did a lot of messing around but i took some technic's I already new, and put it together.I used vignettes, blending modes, simulated pressures with the pen tool, eye color changing, flower color changing, and the make up was new and i made it more blue,and i also used curves a technic that was used in
 layered Glow Text Effect week 5. This has no tutorial. It was a do as you go thing for me just so i can do some recaps of earlier work, but yea i liked the results of my experimental project!

colorful lighting burst text effect week 6

Ok, this is a new font tutorial i did today and it again it didn't come out exactly like the one on the tutorial but its ok i learned how to use the gradient tool a little bit more better, that's how i made that white round light and I finally learned how to use the radial blur...so over all i liked this tutorial.i might try and see if i can make it better but it still looks decent.

layered Glow Text Effect week 5

Ok, wow this took me a week and a half to do, so many problems on one section with the glowing stroke. It didn't come out the way it should of but I some what came out with something that was close to it the tutorial was easy at first but towards the end it gave me a headache. Also I learn more on using the masking tool and using the curves on the layers palette and also how to make a pattern this tutorial was good for some basic details.

sunglasses reflection week 4

Ok on this piece all i did was add an image to the mans glasses. what i did was place an image, transform the image, change opacity, erase unnecessary sections around the glasses and finally change the blending mode on the "reflection" to screen and you end up with this.

desaturation & tilts shift effect Week 3

ok ths week i did 2 little one was desaturation of an image and the othere is a tilts shift effect which makes the image from a high point of view look like a toy.I the desaturation tutorial gave me ideas if i ever wanted to add a desaturated picture and add it to sething with lots of color just to make it look different then the rest of picture, so i can use it on other things, and the tilts shift was a tutorial that is fun to mess with and fun to add to images that have people cars and buildings and tur it into a toy model. i got these two tutorials from photoshops down and dirty book.

jellyfish week 2

Ok here is a new tutorial i looked through and tried doing the font and was not really working but its still good.Now the jellyfish for me are ok not too bad but then not great it still came out ok...I learned a lot in this tutorial i learned more blur effects and blending options and how to actually make them fit and work out...over all I learned some new things to strengthen my skills.ill put the link: for jellyfsih tutorial.
