That what you used for the New Orleans trip batch? Yep, though I did not use Photoshop for them, just Painter. I just directly "airbrushed" Randall into the scene, often creating his image before the background. Now, I have found it easier to make the background first, and then cut-and-paste a pencil-drawn image into it using Photoshop. There's a whole lot less digital erasing to do that way, since I already know how the main subject will look before I put it in the scene. Painter will let me choose whether to make "free-hand" shapes or straight-line shapes, and I use the latter for things like buildings, that have straight edges to them, while using the free-hand shape option for most everything else. Painter and Photoshop both have a lighting effects option, which lets you create a point of light and have it shine on an object, creating more of a spotlight, and that's what I used to get that effect in this picture. However, it will not add shadows and highlights to any perceived object between the wall and the point of light, which in this case, is Wilt, so I had to airbrush those in, and had to think of how the light would hit him if he were indeed a 3-D object moving through that alleyway. pitbulllady |
