Ok now this was fun! I had fun and got frusterated many times but finally came through! My first thought was to go for more of a top gun look. I am totally into airplanes and the guy in the poster is my little brother actually. I was trying to use a sunset as my back round first time but then realized that the poster just looked boring so i changed to this. I first started off with my brother and cropped him out of a regular picture then i inserted the wave following with the lighning. One of the many things that i learned in photoshop this time around was the smudge effect. Now with the water i used the smudge tool to kind of blend things together. That is the thing i was having the hardest time with was blending. But when i started using the smudge tool i started to make what almost looks like a monster at the top of the wave and i kind of went with it. It was cool i thought with the almost pink lightning in front of it. And after that i inserted the airplane. Now this is what i had the most difficulty with in making it look somewhat realistic. I tried adding shadows or anything and I am still unhappy with it. But overal was a fun exerience. O yes and lastley the font. I ended up using Nueva Std along with makeing it bold and not completley huge. and at the bottom dedicated this first poster of mine to my brother. overall i had a blast.
