Possum Roadkill Posted December 31, 2010 Author Share Posted December 31, 2010 @ Chrisco Thanks ! I like your new sig ! Possum, we are at the age where our forgettery is so much better now. I rarely remember how I did something. I get caught up in the process of creation with little regard to trying to remember the steps I took. I'm more that way on abstracts more than anything else. I hardly ever start out working to make an abstract, they just happen. I get distracted by something unexpected with a plugin or technique and off I go into making an abstract. Hence the reason I can't ever remember exactly what I did to create it. I've tried to set down an create an abstract and they always turn out really awful. I need a DVR implanted in my brain so I can record what I'm doing. This is just something I did for the New Year. I saw a magazine cover that I really liked and started to create a version of it but ended up distracted and came up with this instead. ADHD can be a frustrating thing, but it can also lead to unexpected destinations. http://i396.photobucket.com/albums/pp41/PossumRoadkill/Possum%20Art/2010_2011.jpg Quote My Gallery SAC, WOTW and Photo Manip Competition Host To visit the Comps click HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possum Roadkill Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 These are two of the pieces I've done recently using Sculptris. The 3D objects were created using that program and were assembled and modified in Paint.Net. http://i396.photobucket.com/albums/pp41/PossumRoadkill/Possum%20Art/HotPeppers.png http://i396.photobucket.com/albums/pp41/PossumRoadkill/Possum%20Art/SeaTurtleEscape.png The first one is red chili peppers and really doesn't have a title. The second one is two sea turtles escaping from a tiger shark and is called, "Sea Turtle Escape". I hope you enjoy them ! If you are interested in trying Sculptris, you can find it HERE. It's a free program based on the idea of modeling clay in a digital medium. It is very fun and addictive !

HELEN Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Oh my bajoley! That's just amazing! Wow! I love the the glassy effect to the chili peppers and the tiger sharks and the turtles are so real. Wow!

chrisco97 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 The peppers are amazing. They look very fragile. I love the shark piece as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbieq25 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Possum, as mentioned on Fans, these are amazing! Hubby likes them too as he saw them on Facebook & had to show me I'm going to try it on my poor old lappie. Quote Knowledge is no burden to carry.

Possum Roadkill Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 @ Helen, what's a "bajoley" ? @ Chrisco Thanks ! @ Barbieq, Yes, I've been posting them on there and they seem to be popular with my friends. I like to keep them guessing. This is one of my latest. I was inspired by a version of "Somewhere over the rainbow" at the end of a "Scrubs" episode. http://i396.photobucket.com/albums/pp41/PossumRoadkill/Possum%20Art/BlueBirds.png Quote My Gallery SAC, WOTW and Photo Manip Competition Host To visit the Comps click HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisco97 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Amazing work. It's funny where you can get your inspiration, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possum Roadkill Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 @ Helen, Thank you so much. Creating these pieces gives me much pleasure and to know that it brings a smile to someone's face makes that pleasure so much sweeter! @ Barbieq Thanks for always being there to give me a lift ! @ Chrsico, It certainly is interesting to see where people get inspiration for a specific piece of art. For months I really struggled to find inspiration in anything and my artwork really suffered from the loss of my muse. It's funny how this program has brought my muse back to me. I hope that it soon will overflow to my Paint.net work and I'll get back on track. It's great for me that I still have Paint.net to rely on to assemble the Sculptris pieces and create appropriate backgrounds for them. And that brings me to my latest piece, "Dragons Walk". All the pieces with the exception of the sun, sky, and clouds in the background were created in Sculptris. It was all assembled in Paint.Net and the background elements were added. I hope you enjoy it ! http://i396.photobucket.com/albums/pp41/PossumRoadkill/Possum%20Art/DragonsWalk.png Quote My Gallery SAC, WOTW and Photo Manip Competition Host To visit the Comps click HERE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbieq25 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Possum, the dinosaur image is wonderful! I love the textures & the shapes. The dinosaur is so cute!
