Photoshop Battles

[tgpo]

Yesturday at work we had a series of photoshop battles. I thought ya'll may want to try something like that here, maybe. You have to create the images from scratch, not using any other images or tutorials. Here were my entires.

so my two questions...

- what should we model?

- are we restricted to only Photoshop (or comparable bitmap editors, eg. Gimp, PSP, etc..) or can we use vector graphics / 3D progs as well?

- what should we model?

The people partisipating decide on that

- are we restricted to only Photoshop (or comparable bitmap editors, eg. Gimp, PSP, etc..) or can we use vector graphics / 3D progs as well?

The way we do it is the people battling have to use comparable programs. So if one person is using Photoshop the other people can't use Maya. But if everyone wants to model in 3D that's cool.

So image editing software. Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, etc.

Not 3D modeling software as most folks either don't use it and don't have access to it. Besides, if you are efficient with PS then you can make 3D pictures...it's just a matter of perspective, light and shading.

So can I use Pro E?

Sorry, I don't know it.

Is that CAD software?

It looks like it's a 3D program. If someone wants to battle in 3D with you, then it would be okay.

access.

my question isn't so much for the 3D as it is a restriction to bitmap software vs. vector graphic.

so what are we modelling?

Pro E is sweet. We use it here at work for 3D models and simulations, and virtual prototyping. There's not a lot it can't do

Yesturday at work we had a series of photoshop battles. I thought ya'll may want to try something like that here, maybe. You have to create the images from scratch, not using any other images or tutorials. Here were my entires.

How do we know if someone did it themselves or just did an image search on google?

One way is to have a person start with an image, such as the movie reel, then everyone has to include it in their picture. Then someone give us another image and we all have to use that in our picture.

While we would all agree that we aren't exactly on the highest end of the moral ladder most of the time, it would take a pretty sad SOB to cheat in this friendly competition. I doubt anyone lands a photoshop job out of it.

PRO E you say...hmmmm, I'm going to have to check it out. I've been looking for CAD software that would let me do some mathematical modeling fairly easy but yet accurately. Mostly physics type stuff with acceleration of gravity and frictions and such things, that I could use in a classroom.

Then we would need the psd files?
Least to preserve the quality and effort, right?

So who will host the psds?

my photoshop skills having been getting really good ...

Pro-E is short for Pro Engineer. We have a few hundred licensed copies at work - maybe 4 or 5 on my floor here. It's not cheap - it costs us about $10,000 per license with a $3,000 annual fee. There are much cheaper alternatives like Autocad. Or ....you can possibly get an academic discount on Pro-E in which case it's only about $500 to buy.

ACAD can not even come close to ProE....Least not ACAD 2000

Yeah ProE is pretty expensive 8) 8)

[tgpo]

Seeing that there is some interest in this I'll host the psd files. Tomarrow I'll post a link to the psd for the movie reel.

[Craig Tucker]

Solid Works is a pretty good alternative to Pro Engineer, we use both packages here. If I get chance I will post one of my models tomorrow.

Not actually an official entry...but I was screwing around for a bit this evening.



This was from an old tutorial that I did when I was trying to figure out 3D, I'm a little better at 3D now and I made some changes on it...obviously

I think we are suppose to use the reel in the picture....
