Tigers



Well, I (probably) enjoyed the tigers for 'muddy' entirely way too much, and so much so that i went and did some more tiger pictures in Photoshop CS3.

How? For the most part, i just google such things as 'Cats Playing" or "crazy cats"...etc etc and get some fun poses and mix and match them together and there we go. Put the pictures in photoshop as its own layer. Add another and trace it out in red and change it around and basically sketch it - yes, i sketch in red lol. then once its where i like it; i pull up the saturation menu and make it go all black and clean up the lines finally. Then (cause tigers have stripes) make a stripe layer, then colour it. To keep the colours accurate to a tiger, i have 2 pictures of real tigers that i pull the colours and some stripe patterns from. Make a background and there ya have it!

Anyhoo...here are 3 tigers i have done in the last 4 days. And the one with 2 tigers dancing together (actually mirrored if you didnt notice, they are the same one just reversed...lol) the background is real, i didnt make that. its just a patio stone picture i found...just thought the colours kinda matched well with the tigers i thought.
