Thanks, Steve. I thought the top looked a little odd. I'll keep on trying!  _________________ "I haven't failed.... I've found 10,000 ways that don't work!" Thomas Edison |

Thanks for the advice (as always ) - I always overlook that option but I shall experiment with it more in future. _________________ I'm not really bad - I just draw that way |

Thanks Steve, yes I can imagine that would be a nightmare! I was aiming to create the pathos of the fallen-from-grace tramp/clown that has seen better days. Well done for earning your title, Anna |

Steve Caplin wrote: A funny spinning bow tie ... and Bush rendered onto a hand-drawn egg, from the look of it. Just a couple of observations: first, eggs tend to be, you know, egg shaped; and secondly, are you sure the canvas texture is the right choice? Thanks for the wise comments Steve. Everything except the Bush original photo was hand drawn and of course you are right, now looking at it again, that egg is not the right shape. I remember I did at one stage free transform the top to stretch it more to a point, but must have lost that somehow. The canvas texture on Bush's face was supposed to give the impression that his face was painted on the egg; clearly I didn't get it quite right. I did fiddle around with different filters and thought that that texture was about the best. Again, thanks for the comments. Vern |

Re: Contest 148: Clowning around
YAY  I got a title!!!! Thank you so much Steve and also for your comments. It means a lot to me.
Dave and Wayne, thank you also for your kind words. Ive only been doing Photoshop for about 9 months now, prior to that it was foreign to me. So I feel this huge achievement
Michael, I hope you and your mum are doing ok now. Anna |
