devART Description:

I made this piece today cos the weather outside sucks and i am far too lazy to do any of my GCSE art stuff, or revise. So, here it is...

I wouldn't try looking for any hidden meanings in here cos there aren't any, i got an idea in my head and started searching around for a good stock. i found the base stock (the bloke) here:

^^This guy has some amazing stuff :D and then i carried on looking for things to add/take away. i found those on google. The render is one from good old Strukt's 50 render pack, which i know i said i wasn't gonna download, but i did anyway. Sorry... :P

I think that is it for a description, so... Yeah. Above is the art, here is the arty commenty crap, and below should follow your comments and *hopefully* some :+fav:s to add to my rather pitiful collection! :)

dude thats freaking amazing! howd you get the stitches on his nose to fit perfectly?

Very nice good job on the stitching, you should be a doctor... or a nurse :tongue:. Love the abstract ideas but the text is kinda hard to read, that needs a bit of work but other than that its the best I seen in a while.

9.99/10 Well Done!

the stitching was carefully moulded to the shape of his nose :) took forever to do... and i can read the text fine, maybe you have a dark screen catalyst...

yea the text is fine. but how exactly did you mold it to the shape of his nose?

with liquify and shear, and a little bit of smudging... i also used "distort" in "free transform" mode to help get them to face the right direction. I originally wanted them to bend from the bridge of his nose onto his cheek but it wasnt gonna work, so i did that instead.

hmm shear, i dont know that tool.

it's under filter>>distort>>shear :) it is a very very useful tool.

yea i know what it is but i dont use it much, what exactly does it do?

oh right... it bends things to a customised shape and it also can distort things to fit into places where it wouldn't normally be able to :)
