Article two: The quest continues...

Whelp, ya know, have you ever had one of those periods of time in your life where you think you have a plan and it all figured out.. just to have some turn of events take a dump ( ~@~ ) on it? I am beginning to worry that I am continuously trying to polish turds here... no matter how much I keep rubbing, no matter how shiny it gets... it's still just a turd. So.. lets take another look at a couple of turds shall we?



Chapter Two, my genius begins to shine:









As you can see I start to get a little better. I learned that you can cut and paste pieces of images to cover up any unwanted human and even used various paint brush tools to smudge things in... I prefer the crayon.




The first picture is of me during one of my greater moments... that was fourth of July.. I had been drinking for two days and someone had enough sense to give me a beer and some fireworks. Well done. I love the 4th of July in Portland. .. It only seemed appropriate to place myself inside a sharks mouth... thats kind of how I felt once i sobered up. Second is a picture of a short lived but great band made up a series of friends called "The Rebel Drones." My friend Dand suggested I use this picture to make a critter band because everyone looked bad in the original. .. You can see it below:





... so, with this, I started getting a lot of attention for my shitty little pictures on facebook...




Third, which turn into an instant classic is the majestic "Judtaur" .. which, of course, is my friend Jud. Man, finding a topless picture of a hunky guy like Jud just screams "make me into a centaur" .. so I did. This was quite the challenge.. because it was the first time I had to cover something in the background up. Hence, discovering the usefulness of cutting and pasting textures. Ta Da! My love for making taurs starts here…
