Rebecca Hartung Digital Imaging

  I decided to add Big Ben over my image, to go with the England theme. I also made another version with one of the overlays I used the first time. I don't know if that one made it look too messy though. I do like how Big Ben looks, however. 

 This is my first draft. I'm not sure what exactly we are doing to our images or how much we are supposed to edit them. I cut out princess Diana and duplicated her twice and then added two overlays of images of lights. 

I had a hard time finding a good image and one that I really liked. I ended up with these two. Depending on what we are doing with this project I will pick which one to use.   

  I decided to create the Rapunzel tower. I wanted to incorporate hair in some way since I did choose to create a hairdryer. I choose an image on a tower and image traced it in illustrator. I then chose an image of hair and also image traced it. I cut it into three sections and copied the middle section twice to elongate the hair. I found an image of fire and messed with the opacity of it to look almost like air/ fire. I liked how this turned out. I don't really like how fake the dragon looks compared to the tower and hair since those are real images. However, I am overall happy with the outcome. 

 Update: I have been working on the colors of the dragon. I wanted to make it lighter and more recognizable. Here is the updated version. I am also working on better flames to have come out of its mouth. I also added the plug to the tail. I also have been working on the background I am trying to find the right medieval castle image that I can use. 

I decided to combine my hairdryer with a dragon, as they both blow hot air/ fire. I would like to add more detail to the dragon and make it less dark. I would also like to make it less muddy and than it looks now. I am still figuring out a background for this.
