Here is a meagre entry fro me. I am not quite feeling myself this week but I could not let a Friday go by without a little creativity! Although she had made the political decision not to go, the Queen could not let the day go by without a little peak of her eldest getting hitched. Her disguise would have worked too, if it hadn't been for her passion for Egg-Shell blue dresses!  _________________ "There are only two things a child will share willingly; communicable diseases and its mother's age."

Re: Contest 36: Bollywood Bowl
A lot of great work this week, with some highly realistic montages that really show off your Photoshop skills. And I suppose I was really asking for all that anti-royalist sentiment! A couple of very convincing entries from Einstein D Kid, with some great irregular placement of letters that add to the overall effect well. Some nice touches in the second one - I like the fox from an earlier Challenge, and I see my face has made it onto a poster. Can't read the caption, perhaps it's just as well! A fantastic day-for-night scene from Glen, with some cunningly positioned royals tripping down the steps (have you extended Charles' leg there? Is he really that much taller than Camilla???). There's something a little too precise about the lettering on the sign, though, and a little wiggle here and there would have helped that a lot. Glows nicely, doesn't it! More multiple entries from Paul McFadden. Don't you guys have jobs to do? Two very fine pieces of work, anyway, and something about that nibbled P in the first one really tickles me. I also like the idea of anarchists having custom-designed overalls. The sign text is thoroughly convincing in both montages, and I think this is something to do with the dark outline on the letters. Great touch, I wouldn't have thought of that. Wonder why it works. Great pasted posters by BobbyJo, and a very good stab at neon lettering. You're right, though, there is a problem with it: and it's simply the fact that it needs shearing backwards. Look at the verticals in the windows above: that's the angle your verticals need to match. Your sign is leaning forwards, and I'm sure that contradicts health and safety regulations. A fine, straightforward piece of restoration by MJ this week. It's really hard matching all those lines, and you've done a great job: looking at it without reference to the original, it's hard to see which letters were missing. And that's quite a compliment. Great quad bike addition! Julie's given us a very neat zombie festival, with a much more touchable cinema name than was there before. Cloning out the original must have taken ages! Great zombies, well positioned, and the posters fit perfectly. Nice job! A good Waterworld gag from Dezolat0r, but there's a real perspective problem here! When the angle of the scene is going down to the right in such a marked way, you can't just stick in a horizontal horizon. This is more of a wave pouring down the page, right to left. Good reflection effects, though - I'm sure that musc have taken a lot of effort. Good gags, and some well chosen posters, from Tabitha. The lettering's a little awkward - is it all made from the original? But hey, I know you've not been well, so thanks for making the effort. Paul McFadden's second entry rounds this week off for us. You've really got the hang of that lettering, I think your versions are about the most realistic of all. The posters are really great! Love the Tampax gag, which I'm afraid I really can't bring myself to explain to those who don't know what it's about. |

Re: Contest 36: Bollywood Bowl
The 'nibbled P' was actually a 'nibbled B' - the anarchist's improvisation from the available letters - think it would have been more obvious if I'd used the originals, but, they just looked wrong! _________________ Say it aint' so, Joe. |

Steve, thanks. I've had a bash with the shear filter and it does the job a treat. When the free forn perspective lets you down that's the one to go for
