Liquid Metal










For my second photoshop project I chose to do Liquid Metal. On the left is the one I did while following the tutorial and on the right is my own design. I think my my final piece came out close to what I wanted. My idea was to use the word Megadeth and have some kind of fiery background. The one thing I really like about this project is what I was able to do with the background. Some of this did take a bit longer than I expected but I think the end result was worth it. Overall I would rate myself as an eight on this project.

1st project, surreal mist



Add Image










for my first photoshop project I chose to do surreal mist, the picture on the right is my example of the photoshop top secret tutorial. the picture on the left is my own surreal mist project. originally my idea for my own project was to give everything a gloomy feel but I ended up going with this because I liked the look of it more. It didn't turn out like I thought it would but I like this more. One thing I like about my project was the color of the sky and how I was able to make it lighter as it gets closer to the horizon. I think it gives it an interesting effect. My favorite part of this project was learning how to make the mist streams because I think it gives a really cool effect to both of the photos above. My favorite aspect of this project was being able to do my own surreal mist. My least favorite aspect was having to sit through some of the boring parts of the tutorial. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would rate my project as an 8. Over all this class is going well for me even though I am just starting. I think I will enjoy photoshop as I learn more about how it works.
