Art Tag-White Horse

[T Paul]

Yes it's time for another round of Art Tag. This round will start 8 August. After dealing with roaches I thought we would work on something graceful and pretty.

If you want to play and I know you do...send me a PM!

Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi everyone,

I'm really very curious for the outcome of this

Are there two threads ?

[T Paul]

Only one game running this time, and I will post the names as the round progresses from player to player.

[T Paul]

This round is down to the last couple of players! So, the results should hopefully be posted by Friday (15 Aug).

[ArtistColumbus]

T Paul, I like that you have the status posted on this one. It's great for all of us players chomping at the bit! (Get it -- "chomping at the bit" - white horse) I'm crackin' myself up!

Great idea though. Can you do it for all the future art tags?

[T Paul]

Sure! I thought it might be helpful especially when you are waiting for your turn and wondering what's going on.

[jeaniesa]

I agree - it's really great to know where we are in the line-up! Thanks for doing that!

And how it changed from person to person...

The image is small in order to meet the file size limitation.

And the final results!!!!

I jumped in on the end of this and added the glow around the pixies, the sparkle on their flowers, a little fur on the pipe player, and a few bubbles for fun.

[jeaniesa]

WOW!! This turned out awesome!

Great job everyone! I think this one might be my favorite of all that we've done.

Here is one more version of the progress as a jpeg.

[ArtistColumbus]

Wow! Looks good. I had thought about adding the fairies when I had it, but couldn't find any I liked. This turned out well.

T Paul, glad you joined in too!

I want to know how the unicorn's horn was made. Very cool looking!

[gina]

hi everybody,


is this neat or what!
A lot of creative juices were involved here
As for the unicorn : sadly I'm not that talented to make it all myself. If I'd had more time I could've tried to make one. My son had been using this image (which he undoubtedly got on the internet) for a school project. I was bothered about the copyright but since it was only a tiny part of it I used it. Afterwards I did a google search and found it belonged to :

Hi all,

This was a great one!

I got the woodland drawings from an old book of fairies published in 1914, a favorite of my wife from her childhood. Anybody, what do you think of the water? ... I wanted to break up the all green feel and I love the ambiance but it does pull the eye some, although the flow mimics the tail ...

T Paul, when I sent this to you I thought it was done, but you really put the polish on it - Good Job!

Everyone did wonderful! Very cool wings and unicorn horn.

Roger I really like the addition of the woodland creatures as it really strengthens the fantasy theme. As for the water...the perspective seems a bit off and it looks like the stream is flowing vertically vs. flowing through the meadow. Perhaps if you experimented with the perspective transformation in PhotoShop you might be able to tweak it to make it look more realisitc. Don't know what else to suggest as perspective always gives me trouble.
