For this pop art image I decided to use a Lego person. I took a photograph of the Lego person then opened it in Photoshop. After this I then made a new layer and drew a black line round all of the Lego person, I then made a new layer and filled the area in with similar colours to the original colour. I then lowered the opacity of the coloured layer so I could see what areas are darker or lighter than others. I then used the dodge tool to make some areas lighter and I also used the burn tool to make some images darker. This gave my pop art image a more realistic impact to it. After this I just changed the opacity until I liked it.
This was a really interesting as I found out how to use new tools. I feel like this image turned out very well as it was my first pop art image and I enjoyed making it. |
