There were a LOT of "ew" moments for me. I wish you left a little more up to imagination... specifically:<br />- the heads on the wall, if they have been there a while wouldnt still have bright red blood spurting out of them..maybe lose the blood.<br />- LOVED the silhouette behind him...but i dont think you need to show the action shot of him getting his head chopped off...EW. lol<br />- SO MUCH BLOOD.<br /><br />...thats it. take it or leave it.

They are to the right of your main window but any time you want to paste something down, it won't create a new layer for you like Photoshop would. You have to make a new layer yourself, put it on the bottom and then paste your background onto that layer. I hope that answers your problem but if you ever see me before this is done don't hesitate to ask for more help! :) It's looking good by the way!MandyLazershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04229831968280015646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148941421835268013.post-56660159344502075522012-04-19T03:00:33.670-07:002012-04-19T03:00:33.670-07:00You are a lot braver than I am....I'm still to...You are a lot braver than I am....I'm still too chicken to attempt.

I definitely think your stronger ones are the ones with more limited color palette, like 1, 2 and 4. Just to add a bit more emphasis on color contrast to show the difference between the foreground and background.

I agree with Monica that these should be a little denser, however they are going in the right direction. One suggestion I would have is to keep working on patterning with shapes. Or possibly think of patterns that could go in the tree trunks, or on the path. I think we could think of some really cool looking ones. I really like the light striped tree we saw on one of the videos we watched! Keep working, they are definitely getting better! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148941421835268013.post-8657419676176772302012-02-29T20:55:07.288-08:002012-02-29T20:55:07.288-08:00these are getting better/looser...and i'm glad...these are getting better/looser...and i'm glad you went and shot some reference too. <br />My favorite so far is the aerial view with the crows. I'll try and work that in when im doing the storyboard :D yay teamwork!<br />But, for the other ones, remember she is deep within the forest...it is dense and dark. Remember how we talked about the trees creating a pattern, etc. etc. <br /><br />I'll try and come up with some suggestions for class tomorrow, and as a group we can figure this thing out. <br /><br />None of us are really "environmentalists" so this is a fun experiment.

You're awesome! thanks for stepping out of your comfort zone for the group, you get awesome props for that!<br />2. my favorites are the top row in the last image (on the page that says something about grandmas house)<br />3. Take another whack or two for thursday, if you have some time. Loosen up. take a 2H pencil and draw a scribbley swirly mess on a piece of paper. Then take a 2B, and try to find your environment in that mess. It'll help you to loosen up and create shapes you may not have if your brain was telling you too.<br />4. After doing that exercise, use what you learn from it to expand on it. Think about the mood of the scene when doing the background. All the things that you put in the character, attitude, shaping, personality....bring that out with the feeling, attitude and shaping of the background. Easier said than done, but i'm just trying to talk enough to spark your imagination (i hope its working)<br />5. Keep going. You Rock! I have Andy Friz for one of my classes, and he says it takes 100 bad drawings before you get to a really good one that has a story and meaning within it. So crank out those first 100, so we can get to the really awesome stuff :D :DMonica Croninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17768628487690173850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148941421835268013.post-40250846126521712792012-02-08T11:54:41.702-08:002012-02-08T11:54:41.702-08:00Thank you for the feed back I appreciate it alot. ...Thank you for the feed back I appreciate it alot.
