Its a Bird... It's a Plane!

To Creating this amazing cartoon Dwight was very simple. After dragging the image of Dwight into photoshop i duplicated the layer once. In the layers tab i changed the mode of the duplicate layer to colour dodge. I then applied the filter Gaussin Blur. I increased the blur strength until I felt the image looked as cool as possible! Next i removed the colour from the image with the threshold adjustment button in the layers palette. I adjusted the slider until it showed me a large portion of the background. Finally i created a new Layer, and changed the blending mode to multiply. Whipped out the Paintbrush tool and started colouring all the spots i wanted. Personally this is my favourite Pic i've made.

Another Great Pic

To Create this Image first i got the famous Album cover of abbey road. I then clicked duplicate layer four times. Next i turned off the two top layers, by clicking the eye beside the layers. Next i selected the first layer and applied the cutout filter. Then i changed the blend mode to luminosity. Next i selected and turned on the layer above this and clicked the blend mode to screen and applied the dry brush filter. Next i selected and turned on the top layer. I applied the median filter. Finally for the last step i changed the blend mode of the top layer to soft light. BAM! A Water Colour Masterpiece!

Coming Soon to Theaters...

The Scarface Movie Poster is one of my favourites. This Picture isn't supposed to be exactly the same but more of "my take on it".

Firstly i removed the background from my photo with the magnetic lasso tool. I then clicked on the Cutout Filter. Next i selected the magic wand tool, put the tolerance level to 50 ,and began making different parts of my body black and white. To add the background of Black and white i simply created two layers one with a Black square in the background and one with a white. Finally for a little extra touch i added the text on the left side.

Wizard Of Croz!


After watching Crosby score that goal i thought, why isn't he on the flag? He is Canada.

So to do this i basically made a double stamp.
First i selected the image of the Canadian Flag. Under edit i selected define brush preset. I did this same thing with the picture of crosby .Next i changed the background to black by pressing shift F5 and selecting the fill to black. I selected the brush tool , changed the brush to the picture the flag and changed the color of it by clicking the color box then stamped it in the middle. Next i did the same thing with crosby. Added Text at the Bottom.
