Challenge 1119: Pencil posts
I was cycling past this school this week when I noticed the rather cute posts outside, disguised as pencils. What other classroom implements could be enlarged to further protect the schoolchildren from motorists? High res is here.  |

Re: Challenge 1119: Pencil posts
When I was in elementary school they had a ‘show and tell day’. Everyone brought something to show and tell about. A family heirloom, a pet, a favorite toy, etc. I guess I assumed that it was also done in other parts of the world. |

I love this one, especially how you totally nailed the expression on the girls face. _________________ Perfect confidence is granted to the less talented as a consolation prize. |

Litter bins! That's' really neat. I played with coloured sharpeners as well as the aluminium but couldn't find a good way to use them. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Had trouble finding a sharpener that worked well for this, finally got lucky with my final search. Did you have to cutout all of those bikes David?  Lot of work in that one.  |

For the most part, I found them on white. Had only to remove the original stands. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |

Re: Challenge 1119: Pencil posts
How many of you remember these? The old brass compass that held a standard pencil was very much a part of my early schooling before I graduated to proper drawing instruments.  [
There are six distinct different instances of Rotate Object used on the compasses. I don’t think this image would have been possible any other way without porting from 3D. (By the way I discovered that you can duplicate rotatable objects and rotate each duplicate independently. Means you only use credits on the original creation. The copies are free. _________________ The subtlety and conviction of any Photoshop effect is invariably inversely proportional to the number of knobs on it ....... |
