Re: Challenge 326: Doll's house drama
Thanks again Steve, Sorry folks a bit long. First I believe Dolls Houses are great. Maybe I wish I could have had one. Steve you are lucky to be able to make one for your mother. My daughters not so interested. So off track or our imagination. A dolls house can be a metaphor.
I think so, does not mean I can do it well and loose with the first. Led Zepplin's Stairway To Heaven: "...... And as we wind on down the road Our shadows taller than our soul There walks a lady we all know Who shines white light and wants to show How everything still turns to gold The tune will come to you at last When all are one and one is all To be a rock and not to roll" Second and third: I have vivid dream sometimes. Once I was dreaming in PS layers when missed it for few days. The layers were the metaphor or means of expression, but a very interesting way to REM dream!! So when you create the space of the dolls house, you imagine you are there. Imagine when someone with a momentary lapse of reason (Pink Floyd) puts things into your space you don't know or like. You would wake up and scream, the real person. I would. ..or ..Wide Awake In Dreamland, Pat Benatar. |

Thanks a lot for your comments, Steve! Sometimes the stories aren't as obvious as us HTCIPers might think. I blame it on low res. My story goes like this: Girl sees pics of Twiggy (mags on front left table), cuts off her plait (hair on the floor, plait by the mirror, gran disappearing with a bunch of curls), now mum wants her to hand over those scissors... Not sure everyone got Trevor's story either with Nipper the dog lying on the bed exhausted after listening to His Master's Voice on the gramophone for hours - at least that's what I assumed. |

Just little me: Well what can you say. Thanks Eva. I really loved the images but missed Trevor's dog and your understanding. We need to talk more often, but I'm not meant to do that, oh well with friends we can? |

All the dolls (and goat) were photographed. I felt I had to close the door to maintain internal logic: The bride would not have been standing at the foot of the bed if she had entered through that door. _________________ Is it necessary? Does it work? |

Thank you Steve, As a beginner Photoshop user I always have trouble with creating shadows, so I have a lot to learn  |

Re: Challenge 326: Doll's house drama
To answer Sophie and Steves question. I did take a photo of my old teddy bear wrapped in a bandage. I tried making the bandage in PS, but it was taking so long to make it look right I thought; there has to be a quicker way, and there was. I wasn't sure about the shading after having posted, so will amend. Anna, if you read this: an excellent banner. |

Re: Challenge 326: Doll's house drama
Lots of clever and funny entries this week. My image is unfortunately still a work very much in progress. I have a plan for it and have started some of the parts but soon realised that I would need my dolls posed in very specific positions (not rude) relative to the viewpoint. I therefore decided that I would need to do some 3D modelling to create the dolls in position (something I have never even attempted before and I now realise much more ambitious than the time I had available in order to complete before this Friday morning). So whilst I currently do not have an image which I am happy to upload, I have had a fun and interesting week learning the 3D editing software Blender, a free open source program which whilst daunting at first is, after many hours of You Tube tutorial videos, starting to make enough sense to allow me to dabble in 3D creation. I hope to keep working away at my models for importing into Photoshop and so in the (near?/distant?) future will be happy enough to upload my attempt at this Challenge. I remember Gordon had produced some 3D airplane images which were very impressive and must say that the creation of 3D images is very rewarding (but also a great time-waster!). Cheers for now, Vern. |
