Trying new things

So I plucked up the courage to scan one of my A2 images, bit by bit on my puny little A4 scanner, with the express aim of sticking the separate scans together with Photoshop.

And let the fun commence...

It was awkward. Most of the scans were a little warped as the oversized paper would droop on either side, then, once I had finally got the best scans I could, Photoshop refused to align the images perfectly. Anyway, after much flapping around I managed to clean the image up.

Tadaah!

Let it be known I'm pretty bad with Photoshop, so all my drawings are traditional and, therefore, if I make a mistake, I have to start from the very beginning. Bleck!

Also I'm going to make a blunt plea. I am eager to get criticism and feedback, it can be good or bad. Even something as simple as "hay, I like it" is useful as that way I can tell if I'm doing something that people find appealing in some way as opposed to just doing something stupid.
Also someone asked me how the "join this site" option works. If you have a Google Account (something you will have if you have a youtube account or blog) you can click this option and then Google gives you little alerts when I create a new blog post effectively making you a "follower." That's all it is.

  1. Hay, I like it! hehe

    It looks exceptionally good and I have absolutely no real criticisms for this one. It's really amazing, I feel like it could be a mascot for something very easily heh. The scan turned out very good too!

    If there's one piece of advice I would give it would be to keep pushing the interaction with every day objects to the extreme. The skeletons themselves already look amazing but I feel like the character of the drawings is very very good already but could be made even better. If I were to buy a drawing like that I guess I'd want it to express a bit of who I am most. I don't know the actual abstract meaning you are going for though.

    As usual, not much of a criticism, more of a general observation that probably doesn't mean too much. Just speaking my mind. Keep on going, this stuff is awesome!
