If you go to this site and click on “finalist gallery”, you can see my robot shown there. It is the tenth one shown in that gallery. I had fun doing it. Five are chosen from the 10 there and they are the ones, I guess, who win prizes. Won’t know until the July magazine comes out. I imagine that comes out in June. It sure is fun to be a finalist.

Writing this much later. I was lucky and got 3rd place in the contest. See the page here. popphoto.com

Do you ever get a feeling of insecurity? Or is it just the times we live it? Some do feel threatened by radicals. Those feelings came out in the theme of my image at MOCA. It was given a Fourth Honorable Mention. Thanks MOCA!

Hey, Baby!

My image started out with a shape brought into Paint Shop Pro from Zbrush. Talk about painters “pushing paint”, I guess I “push pixels.” I pushed the shape around until I achieved a female shape with the head of something very alien looking. I duplicated the shape and pushed out a matching male shape. Color changes, decorations on their belts and eyes came later, along with backgrounds, textures, shadows and decor.

Thanks to MOCA for the October contest and to the voters for voting my image as a co-winner for second place.

It’s worth mentioning……….

Posted in Main, Computer Art at 10:35 am by Holder

My entry at Museum of Computer Art [MOCA] got an honorable mention. “Rush Hour” was a combination of PSP 8 and just a bit of Zbrush. I had made a shape in Zbrush and had copied the shape with the framework using printscreen. That was then pasted onto a canvas in PSP 8. I saw a face in it after rotating it and did some shaping to improve it. I saved a duplicate of the original which I used to fill in the shapes that I drew with the mouse for the body, arms and legs. Another duplicate was shaped into the baseball cap using the warp brush in push setting. The bicycle was made from scratch using various tools in PSP 8. Tie, shoes, hands, backpack, etc. were mouse drawn. The background is one of my cityscapes which I “grunged up” by using some of my original masks. Light effect was then added. Throughout this whole process there was a lot of lightening, darkening, shadowing and “tweeking” going on.

Thanks, MOCA, you made my day. There is another contest going now for the month of October.
