Digital Art Competition #20: Your Astrological Sign

great conceptual work everyone. I really love that CE. Excellent work on the background mountains as well as the sky. "RAM Tough"! Bet you could sell that to Dodge.

Here's my entry, originally a black and white image sign: Libra



Missy

haha ya not a bad idea. thanks ATNO...

Seriously CE. Submit it to them and see what they will do. That would make a hell of a commercial

OK Missy, I got to ask you, what exactly was the black and white? Just the scales? or the "babe" because if the babe was originally B&W and you colored her then I demand a tutorial on how you did it!

LOL, it was totally black and white, the original image looked like this:


I used PSP (paintshop pro)

Ya, I've done that a few times. In photoshop you can set the image to multiply and you can paint layers under it ATNO/TW. Maybe a new kind of competition? Never done anything that detailed though.

This is an area i'd like to get more into. Very impressive work. Not to be picky, i still sort of fail to see the astrological sign though. I mean, yeah you've got the picture of the libra and the word Libra.

Maybe i'm just being too picky?

I'm new to this forum sorry. Maybe I just misunderstood the whole astrological sign theme thing. None the less I just thought it'd be fun to participate. I didn't really expect to win.

Oh, please don't take this as me criticising your entry. I personally have the problem because i'm just not seeing it. I might also add that it's 5 minutes to 5 in the morning and i've not slept, so i'm sort of being cranky i think too.

If we were to talk about digital art, then by far yours is very very good. To make an image go from B&W to colour is pretty impressive and worthy of entering.

Welcome to the site. Don't let my crankyness deter you from what is actually a really good site full of decent and useful members.

I was just going to say, I'm totally impressed, missy. I've never seen that kind of quality colorization of a b&w photo done so well. Very nice attention to detail.

btw sb you're too picky. I see the scales in the image just fine. (*hint look at the breasts).

I guess i couldn't not look at the breasts but i saw something completely different.

In which case, i was completely wrong Missy_moon. I apologise.

my crummy addition...

haha i love it
