Today I continued to work on my 3d ball. I finished the ground shadow, the key shadow, the specular highlight, and the sphere. I still need to work on giving the ball more volume, and make the shadow less sharp

Today I continued to work on my sphere project. I added the ground shadow, but I need to make it a lot darker. I also added the ambient shadow. I added it by using the brush on soft. I also worked on giving the sphere volume but I still need to add the specular highlight.

Blending Within a Mask

This is a picture that I painted. I did this by using a mask, and a the flow and opacity tools. The sphere looks like it somewhat has volume.

Today I worked on making a sphere by blending colors together. I turned the flow down to 1% and painted in a circular motion to give the sphere volume. I still have to do the shadow.

Today I finished my blending projects and my haunted house projects. The pictures of them are below.

Final Haunted House Project

This is my final haunted house project. I completed this by cutting out a house, replacing the background and sky, and beating up the house.

Blending Final Project


Above are my two 5 by 7 blending assignments. I used the flow tool to do this.

Today I worked on painting in Photoshop. I am currently working on blending three colors together. I found that adjusting the flow allows for the best blending. I am just using a regular brush.

I used a lot of different brushes for this one to add texture. I also used the leaf brush for a pattern.

I painted this using different kinds of brushes.
This is my rainbow picture. I used the flow and opacity tools to have a gradient effect. The flow tool worked best.

Today I continued working on my haunted house project. I added bats and blended the house into the background more. I also made the house look more broken down and beat up. I used the healing brush to make it look like the columns are broken.
