TERM 2 - Week 1
Photoshop for digital Prod 2 Assignment A

Pretty interesting to get involved with this tools in photoshop that we often ignore or just don't even know they exist. I tried to keep things simple but interesting. I hope u guys like it

[mitsuki-youko]

ooh love the title design!

[patrycja.lerch]

Title looks great, I love squished letters!

[daceronine]

Oh wow that 2D enemy looks really nice. Really nice uses of soft shading and hard shades as well. Box and logo look great too!

[santiagosocamia]

Well, due to unexpected problems in my house i had to repeat over week #2 to better understand and absorb th face anatomy and therefore continue with the topic. In between times and more i could finish this personal project i made for a friend of mine. I liked the result but EVERY comment or advice to improve is always welcome

[mitsuki-youko]

yooo that looks super realiztic! I thought it was a photo at first! Its like WLOP level good!

[santiagosocamia]

Wow, that is honestly flattering. Thank u so much and i hope to be THAT good in the future. I did took inspiration from WLOP when making the jewerly

[daceronine]

Jebus that looks good. To my untrained eye I can't really thinkg of anything to change. Perhaps just the alignment on the letters to center her on the gap a bit more? That's some amazing work man.

TERM 2 - Week 3

Every exercise in this week was really interesting but i find the portrait practice the most exciting. I share with u guys my results.

[daceronine]

They all look great, though I only recognize Henry Cavill xD. Values look really nice!

[mitsuki-youko]

Yoooo these look AMAZING!

the mouth on the bottom left girl looks a bit strange perspectively speaking but hot dayum everything else looks so pro!

[Kaz_0]

Great studies! The shadow/light shapes are very nice.

TERM 2 - Week 4 (draw the head from memory)

Ok, so drawing human face features all together to create a new human it's A LOT more difficult than i imagined. Honestly, in the 5 inicial faces of the last week i got some weird results and i would not consider those faces "humane". But i think this one came out a lot better and i'm happy with the shading. Feedback is much appreciated.

TERM 2 - Week 4 (perspective 2 assignment 1)

I tried to make something like an abandoned evil fortress, inspired by Marc's example, but using my own features and lighting. I hope I captured the essence correctly.

[santiagosocamia]

Hard weeks, i got a flu and was away from the screen some days but i'm back and doing my homework with perspective 2. It's intimidating and exciting at the same time but so much fun. I think it came out looking good but it reminds to that super buffed captain america meme where he is in the bed

[daceronine]

Haha, that's a great excercice! Glad you're feeling better. Got the flu myself, but already getting over it.

Self Portrait #2
LETS GOOOOO, now i can say i like the result and i'm happy with it hahaha. I hesitated at the beginning of this one cause i was carrying bad thought from my last try, but i'm honestly thankful with the texture and general feeling this one gave to me. Recently i'm sharing too litle work cause i'm doing mostly sketch exercises, but soon i hope to be creating more projects to apply the new skills from Term 2

[mitsuki-youko]

eyyy this looks great!! the coloring is so good!

[santiagosocamia]

Thanks! I used the default oppacity pressure control brush cause i wanted to avoid that soft artificial feel when there are too much soft edges all over the face. It was fun

[santiagosocamia]

Well, i give up on keeping track of the exact weeks i'm currently on XD. It was easy at the beginning but now i feel to distracted to keep that rythm. I think now i will just upload the exercises when i remember and have the time to do it.

Right now i'm working on the clothes exercises
