New Project: Piece of the Arctic: JUST KIDDING

So I can't make this project because it's on a later version of photoshop that involves 3D tools. Which we don't have. So now I'm going to find a new project.


IDEA: Make a pretty picture. Basically.

SPECS: First I'll recreate the tutorial, then maybe instead of and Arctic environment I'll do a coral reef or something.

RESEARCH: This is the tutorial

This was a shirt I designed but it was a one or two day thing that never really reached production stage.
I was working on my Hansons T-shirt and I tried out a tutorial that was supposed to make the "Obama Campaign Poster" effect. I stopped though because I actually liked it the other way I was doing it. Also, I liked the black and white contrast:

And this is a tutorial I did for that "fire surfer" project thing:
Maybe why I take so long to do projects is because I do too many tutorials? (Wow that is not proper grammar).

I also spent one or two classes trying to design the ceiling of an astronomy building for a play, but that did not pan out...at all.

I think that's it

Taurus (Assembly)

Working on my Mission Patch:

I don't know if I'm going to use the same "font" for TAURUS are a different one. I'm also not sure about the black background either.

***UPDATED***
I think I like the top right one best, but I'm not sure. Also I think I should maybe change the color of the bull to a lighter color blue.

And now some different colors:















I'm working on fonts too, but nothing final yet:
