Title: Text on shirt
Post by: Lynnya on October 14, 2016, 03:54:54 PM
Hi Gang...

I'm thinking that the words on this shirt say "MARY 6" I thought at first it might be NAVY but I'm sticking with Mary... what do you see?(https://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-nF4Mk75/0/L/i-nF4Mk75-L.jpg)

I took the red channel  and jumped it over the rgb.. then created a new layer now black and white.. and remembering what Beth told me about changing the blend mode to overlay I used a black brush to try to bring out the text.. I can clearly see the 6 now and still think it's Mary.. what say you guys? Do you have a secret text visualizer?

I believe that's a Miami HEAT jersey with the number 6 under it...

Oh wow... I would NEVER have gotton that.. I looked online and yes there are some white women's shirts with heat or miami on them..so.... is it saying HEAT??

Thanks DS.

yes yes.. I'm sooo happy.. found the exact shirt to copy.. little logo on right and adiddis logo on left... would have been terrible if I hadn't asked and put MARY on there !!!!!!!!

Hi gang,
I got so "into" this image I forgot to post wip.  So when I get to the point where I don't know what else to do I think I may be near the end.. feedback appreciated.

Looking good! Did you use that Phlern skin texture from scratch on the skin? I sure enjoy your work Lynn  :up:

I think it does work for the skin. One little thing ... what would you think about the shadow being a tad softer/lighter on the inside of the arm hanging down? See down around the thumb area - maybe add a little blur or something?

Hi Lyn,

I've blurred around the thumb area as you suggested.. the red down the side of the arm is supposed to be a red stripe on the shirt.. is it confusing? I'm not sure how I can change it.. suggestions??

Hey there. The red stripe looks good and not confusing at all. Probably just the upload &  me, the shadow/shading just up from his thumb seemed a bit hard edged. Trying to learn shading and highlighting so it caught me eye. Have a good one!
