Weekly Activity 11/24-11/30 --Things you wish you could do.
 

The people have spoken. The topic to this week is: "Things you wish you could do."

Basically here's how it will work: Doesn't matter what medium you want to use, pencil, ink, digital, paint, clay, macaroni sculpture, whatever as long as you can put a picture of it up here for everyone to see.

Go ahead and post it in this thread, that way they're all in one place. And we can all comment on it.

Since no one gave any suggestions for the next activity I'm throwing up some ideas for the next one. So sumbit your entry for this week and go ahead and vote for next week too. If you've got suggestions for a good activity let's hear it.

Nice selection you got goin there :D
I'm working on mine at the moment :)

Just took a break from mine to get some reference photos.

This should be fun!

I will gamble on the benevolence of the encounter.

I wish I could ride my horse at Olympic level.
Clearly we are not good enough for that yet though :)

The picture was taken from 3 separate images, the original picture of my horse that GO took of him running in the paddock, I chopped myself off another pic, and then had to clone out the poor world class rider at Sydney 2000.... not sure about the lighting tho, any tips from fellow *cough* Corel users?

That's pretty damn good, lulu.
I didn't realize it was chopped at first.

Yeah Lulu is lucky she's got a good photographer ;) :p

VERY VERY NSFW

Very cool Majik :D

....

Now.. what happened to the rest of the subjects? did this wee project die in the ass :(

Hail Citizen!

Excellent work.
I love the giant head.
-GH

Yeah, I was thinking there'd be more submissions!

Oh well, it was still fun.

Does anyone have a recommendation on how I can get my art to look better when I transfer it to the digital realm?

The piece is quite large (almost 3'x4') so I can't scan it, and the dig. camera is making it look washed out, and it's losing a lot of detail. There's a LOT more detail in the actual piece, and it's looking more simplistic in the website.

Thanks.

majik

you should try taking pictures of your stuff outside...i find that it makes your stuff look a lot nicer. then you don't get a huge spot on the piece if you're shining a light on it. that's all i gotta say.

Thanks for the advice.

I think that I messed up partly due to using a flash. I just photographed some new work the other day, and it looks much better.

I'll try your tip.
