Went a little crazy with photoshop recently. Downloaded new brushes, experimenting with photo manipulation etc. Some may have seen the little manipulation I did before I deleted the post. Well, I deleted it coz I just feel like doing it, kinda to vent my feelings and all. Anyway, that picture's not one which I've taken personally with Jay [I wish!], nor one which involve me standing next to some poster n pretending to be part of it or something...
Itz simply 2 different pictures combined together, add a little touch of photoshop and you get one complete fake pic. Actually itz not a little touch of photoshop, itz a pretty heavy touch, to the extent that I look kinda weird. Oh well.
What is seen above is the original picture, before I did all sorts of funny stuff to it.
The next thing I needed was a Jay pciture taken with another girl, so I just took one that I've in my collection - him with Patty.
Armed with this picture and my own, I started cutting out Patty's head and cutting out my own head. With the eraser tool, I erased away her head and put mine there. =D What goes on next is to adjust the colour settings of both my input head and the background [Jay, his flowery shirt, the background, Patty's body etc. ] so that it looks blended in like one real picture. And the result:
Jay giving me flowers! muahaha.
As mentioned earlier, I downloaded some new brushes from photoshop. With these new brushes, I kinda created different background and blending in the same picture to see the effects. Pretty amateur stuff but I do like the final outcome.
Swirl brushes and a black background created this:
Alchemy brushes with the same black background, same old face of mine created this:
Retro brushes, swirl brushes, same old face, same old background and I get this:
I know, all these pictures probably look the same to you but hey, at least they've different backgrounds. Hee.
Ok, enough about photoshop. Today was Clarissa's bdae celebration [technically it should be ystd coz itz 3.12am now] and the group of us met @ orchard. There's no photos coz my Panasonic Fx9 isn't with me yet. Anyway, 2 freaking irritating incidents happened to me.
1) We went Far East and I saw this brown dress [which I bought at the original price of $79] on sale at a freaking low price of $19!!!!! I paid a bloody $60 extra for the very same dress! Grrrr...
Ok fine.
I told myself since they're having this super sale inside, I might as well look around to see if there's anything worth buying. So I found myself a black tube top and bought it happily, for $19 too.
Predictably, I have to go and misplace my paper bag at god knows where and now I don't even have my tube top. Sigh, looks like there's a reason why many called me blur. I resigned myself to fate - I'm blur. =(
Whew, this is one long post, long time since I wrote so much.
Zzzzz....
I'm gonna sleep, lots of errands to run tmr.
