Haunted House 11/29/10

In class, I worked one fixing the rust to my house so it wouldn't look like it was too dark or to light in its place. I also leaned my house a little on the left side because I broke the porch. I also removed the that red pole located in the middle of the house. I thinking, if I should remove that bush too.

Next class in order to finish, I want to add some lightening, fix my windows, make the grass a darker color, add some dead trees, and make my house dirty.

Haunted House 11/22/10

In class, I worked on making my house darker. I also searched Google to see if I could some great dead or dried grass fields but I didn't get too much help. Most of the grass didn't look right with my house and tornado. I think I may need to paint the windows to make them all have the same color. I'm also thinking about removing the pole that's in the middle of the house.

I don't think I need to do more with the grass now that its darker, I mean I can get more grass to cover up some of it because it's a little to orange. For my roof I just got some wholes and used the magic wand to delete the white part, then I just scale some of the holes to make it a little bigger.

Haunted House 11/18/10

Today in class, I made my house bigger because it looked all weird just smaller. I also found pieces that I could put on my roof. Now I just need to found a way how to make it look like it fits and my house was really dark. To complete the house my to-do-list is:
Fit the grass
Make my house darker
Fix the roof
Do more to house like making it look dirty or old
Make the background more darker

Haunted House cont. 11/16/10

I worked on getting some textures on my house today, using the free transform and magic wand tool. I had to use the free transform to make the textures small enough to fit the place where I want it to be on the house. Then, I used the magic wand tool to delete the white layer to the texture. After that, I made the inner shadow pixels smaller and the opacity smaller to until it look like it belongs in that spot.

To make my house bigger, I made my canvas size bigger then free transformed my background bigger so it can fit the new canvas size.
Next class I want to start working on my roof.

Broken Windows

Today in class I kept working on broken windows.

I don't have a lot of stuff done to my house because i was searching Google for textures and torn roofs but I didn't find a lot of stuff that would look right. It didn't give me many options and the website you preferred wasn't a lot of help either. I was wondering if there's anymore websites you can prefer, or do you know what I should search under Google. (And I choose the tornado as my background.)

haunted House (cont.) 11/10/10

Here is my house so far:

I made an account on cgtexture.com and was looking through it to see the different textures and windows. I also searched broken windows on google and found some nice ones. i 'm working on the windows for now and trying to find a way to make them blend with the house instead of making them look out of place. That's why I haven't started with the textures yet.

Haunted House

In class, I worked on my haunted house. I have a minor problem though because I don't know which photo to use as my background. Here are both of them:

Honestly I like the first one better because of the tornado; the problem is, it's covering up the tornado. The other one also has a cool background but the house doesn't look right there, to me. Next time I'm going to start working on the windows and building. Also i don't know which background to choose but I'm pretty sure i'm going to choose the one with the tornado.

Spider-Doo/Haunted House

I was working on the mask again to day and there was an issue. Whenever I would duplicate a piece and rotate it, it would start getting fuzzy. I don't know how to make it non-fuzzy, so I decided to work on my Haunted House.
Here are some photos I looked up and deciding if I should use them as my background,

 

I like this one because it's amazing and had a lot of space. The only problem would be the fences and i will have to make it look a little more spooky.

 

I decided I wanted some lightening and a tornado in the background and this just caught my eye. It's an amazing photo and my favorite. 

 

This photo is also a good photo but it is a little small, the only problem is the pretty green grass.

Here's my house, I finished cutting out the sky and I'm going to start working on painting the area where I cut out the car because most of the house is missing. It's going to be a little difficult but I'll see what I can do.

Spider-Doo Mask/ Finished Dog

 

This is the mask for Spider-Doo, I'm working on filling in the gaps the eyes left when I removed them. I used the Polygonal Tool to trace around the eyes and to move them to the side I used the move tool. I began to trace a part of Spider-Man's mask to fill in the center where his nose is at; I used the Polygonal Tool again to trace around it. After that, I went to Edit-Transform-Rotate to rotate the piece around in order to fit it in. Next class I will continue to do that and decide if I want to keep Spidey's eyes or not.

 

Here is my finished Dog, the hardest part was the tree. I did my best trying to blend it in but it was very difficult.
