First and foremost, I still have reservations about the damn coat. I hate myself. That’s why I’m drunk at the moment. But all in all, there was progress. Mostly hair:
Me bright idea was, get a couple of chip brushes, stain them with water-based stain, and cut bits out and glue them to bits of cloth and glue them to the head of me fella:
Also did a bit of distressing on the workbench, was frankly a bit distressing to me (ha ha):
Then I did a few test shots of the painted head of the fella in the set lighting, just to see what it looked like:
It’s getting there, but I keep hitting that ol’ debbel Creative Apathy, also known as Why Bother, Mate. The hair makes me happy, but the coat thing still sticks in me craw. Feh.
In other news, the overall look of the set is pretty much done, the Shots are mostly set in me head, and it will take me maybe a couple of days to get the workings of the DSLR under control. And I’ve started asking around for folks’ opinions for programs for working with RAW format. So, ya see, I do have a handle on things….
Also, anyone know of a position opening for a lower-level IT tech? ‘Cause I got taxes to pay soon….
