GTO art cars from Adobe Ideas I've created

Second post/blog of March. This what I have done from last few months ago on my iPod touch. Influenced by a few images from the Superman/Batman comic books. Draw them first by hand, then scanned in, then altered in Photoshop.



There was an app for free on iTunes called Adobe Ideas for the iPhone (now cost £2.99 for the app nowadays) which I've done some drawings
perviously I've done on my iPod Touch.



I was Influenced by the image of the Ferrari 250 GTO to created it in Adobe Ideas.



I started with the image behind as a template, draw in the basic colours onto another layer.



Then I remove/hide the real image reappear as a reference on in a while. Then add more colour to the main image.



Then re-tidy the details/adding and removing colour of the car with a bit of trail and error. Some didn't work. But, is developing the piece.



Add some details to the bonnet.



Add some more detail, add/replace colour.



Add the Ferrari logo on the side of the car.



Then retouch the front end of he car again for the finish piece of the 250 GTO.



Then I done this with the Ferrari 288 GTO.



And the Ferrari 599 GTO too.



So I take all three GTO cars into Photoshop for a little altering on angles of the cars. Saved as as a jpg file. So here is the finish product of Ferrari GTOs' below.



That is all. Bye.

A drawing/illustrated post with super heroes in it

First proper post/blog of March. Starting of with a different post today. This what I have done from last few months. Influenced by a few images from the Superman/Batman comic books. Draw them first by hand, then scanned in, then altered in Photoshop.


I was influenced by the Pop Art movement, Artist such as Roy Liechtenstein and Andy Warhol. Also, I was influenced by Frank Miller’s Sin City Comic book style of black and white images with adding limited colour.

The original drawings was created by using HB pencil and a sharpie pen.



Then adding the blue and red by using cheap marker pens to draw in.



Now, I went into Photoshop by scanning in the original black and white image. Then in Photoshop I threshold the image to black and white. Then, with the layer went to select menu – click onto colour range, put the fuzziness to 100% clicked OK then delete the white bits of the image as the image below shows.



Then in a few layers below the main layer added simple colours to the image in each layer.



After I added the colour, then saved as a jpg file. This is the finish piece.



Also, I’ve did the same technique to Batman image as-well as Superman above.





So here is the finish product of Superman and Batman together.



That is all. Bye.
