The Photoshop Thread, Part IV

Here's a revised version of "Friday's Power-Cat," to the original just upthread.

I think it has a better mask on the power-cat to place him (or her!) behind the rock. What do you think?

Not bad, but the color values on the cat are too close to the landscape. I had to look twice to even see it.

Ah. Thanks.

I did that deliberately.

The animal's colors in the source image created some problems. Although the cat was a different color altogether in TAS, I realized I could solve those problems by matching to the landscape, and it seemed plausible as crypsis in this setting (as if the power-cat in TAS was from a different part of the planet).

It was difficult for me to gage what effect this would have on the audience, though. Perhaps I should rethink that!

I'd also like to take one more stab at the rock mask, and maybe try to add some more static electricity in the scene.

Yeah. Like a polar bear in an ice field or a brown moth on a tree bark. Tsk

I made, modified and then posted this image elsewhere on this site, so I was about to delete it. Then, I figured somebody might want to use it for ... I don't know ... something. Or, maybe just want to see what "young" Jim & Carol might have looked like, together. Personally, I consider her to be Kirk's only true love and ...

... his favourite mistake.


on a similar track, made this one for a caption contest ...

Carol: Jim, I've got some great news for you, we're going to have a-

Kirk: Sorry Carol, you're breaking up...zzzz kkkcchhh.. (switches the viewer off)

Spock: (rolling eyes) Really, Captain? Again?

Kirk: Oh shut up and make your next move.

Here's the caption, actually got a win:'

KIRK: "Carol! How great to hear from you"
CAROL: "Hi Jim ... um ... we need to talk"
KIRK: "Of course Carol, what is it?"
CAROL: "Remember last month when I told you I thought I was late?"
KIRK: "Of course I remember, but don't be too hard on yourself Carol, you never could get anywhere on time."
CAROL: "That's not what I mean!"
SPOCK (Thinking): for the love of Surak, here comes another "I'm pregnant Jim" message
 
I'm curious about something

Can somebody do a picture with Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Scotty, and Chekov in TNG (season 1 & 2) uniforms, and a picture of Picard, Riker, Data, LaForge, Crusher, Worf, and so on from Season 1 in the TOS uniforms?

There are some gems already buried in this topic.

I made this for the Starships Model Magazine thread, but figured I may as well post it here too. It's harder than I thought it would be getting that tiny little model to look bigger. Not sure I pulled it off completely, but not too bad bad for a first try. :)
