Lean's Graphics Gallery: Star Wars Model Kit Comps

GH33, nah, it's good already. i wouldn't have figured it out if Lean didn't post his instantly-vectored kitty.

sir lean!! im an multimedia student..for a month id know something about what you called pen tool...but iv seen some of your work..it really amaze me!!! especially this one!!



sir can i plz request or can you do me a favor?? would you mind to teach me how do u do this one??
heres my email address and ym: "rock_life21@yahoo.com"

btw heres some of my work..

Sigh.. I guess it's really time for me to post my works here. I've been making excuses not to post them because they're terrible, but I guess posting it here will help me improve since all your feedback should really be helpful, especially from Lean.


This here is my first one ever, yes that is myself right there. Because the original pic is a high resolution one, you can see very easily when you view it in full resolution that it's really unneat but at least it looks like me.



And this one here is a quick one I made for a friend of mine, using a very low resolution picture. I really rushed on this one because I only had an hour to complete it, nonetheless he likes it and said he will use it as a dartboard.



I really dont know why they dont look like the other work posted here.

Are you still planning to do that Megan Fox vector bro Lean please do make it bro i beg you please i really like to see the vector of that girl so that i could do some in my bedroom

Kris, you don't need a vector to do that.

Modifly, those are actually good ones. but you could still improve on color blending.

Damn Kris, if you want to do that, the real thing is much more favourable.

Thanks jenz, yeah, I could really improve on the colour blending. I'll be aware of that in my next work.

From a farther view that vector of yours looks great Jom. Only thing that I noticed is that there's no blending--yet. Put your base layer and trace the entire headshape of yours and place the shades above it, and set the shades to 30% opacity so that it would blend the colors. And you need to give your vector shapes some curves for a better result.

Ahh, I see Kris like to do some . Thing is, if you like me to vector that shot I'd need a bigger picture of it, and lots of time too.

Seen the pic you posted. Are you just starting with your Photoshop course? If yes, that pic is a good sign of things to come. That work of yours show that you're a quick learner.

But I can't promise an in-depth tutorial like that of the vector tutorial I made a few weeks back. Looking at it now, I believe I need to make adjustments on that kind of art in Photoshop.



Looking at some areas in this pic, you can see that there are still spots that look flat and needs to be added more shades for it to look solid. To be honest, I used a reference pic of myself holding an umbrella (see Page 2 or 3) and just traced around the parts using the Pen Tool. The shading is made using the Dodge and Burn Tool. Not exactly the tools you want to use because the exposure rating screws the shit out of the work.

And I didn't make the Jedi tunic "from scratch," I mean, it's not really "made out of my mind" as if I'm really drawing it. I still have a reference pic of it:



Look at Obi-Wan. You can see there that I based my tunic on his.

When you do things at Photoshop, what you need is an imaginative mind and a creative spirit. Plus some logic on how to do a certain project. If you need help on your course or in Photoshop in general, feel free to ask.

Oh no worries lean nevermind i think ill just gonna do it in my own dirty way

Well.. Since that photos too small.. Can I have another request?

It was off of FHM's photoshoot..

Lean cant vector that one for sure because his nose will bleed all the way.

Damn Those tush melts the mojo out of me btw there was a rumor that she was a he before ..is it true?

Still haven't got over it, have you Kris?

I'm... having... a... HARD... time... very... HARD.... time.....

I can tell, it's difficult to photoshop things when your body doesn't obey you doesn't it?

If she's a he before, then I'm Steve Novak disguised as some dude from Thailand to make mods.

You know what, Jom, looking at that Fox pic DahLollipop posted makes me want to fox around again. Plus a few whips of imagination, and I see an "Insert Coin" message somewhere in that pic.

and I see an "Insert Coin" message somewhere in that pic.

Maybe you can put the "hole" in when you vector that pic.

Make sure you remember all the combos with that joystick

ill second that

You sir, should be banned for making a post with only one emoticon in it.

I thought I was Tony Jaa, shadow. Now I'm Bruce Lee?

You're like an evil badass mixture of both. You look like Lee but you kick ass like Jaa. I'm also thinking that you have the same physique as that of Austin Daye. Evil I tell you.

Gawd no, Jaa and Lee combined is a very ultimate killing machine.
