Week 11 - 9 Variations Part 2

 

              De Gea (Skip)                               Casillas #1                           Ramos #4

 

     Cannavaro #5                          Ronaldo #9                                Xavi #6


 

    Maldini #3                               Ronaldinho (Reverse)                        Thiago #2

Craft: The craft for these variations is basically the same as the one from last week. I used the pen tool, the layers panel, and color picker tool. The only other tools that I began using were the transparency, opacity tool, and a bit of the line segment tool as well as the earser.

Composition and Concept: What I started doing in these variations was adding more shadows to create a more realistic look. I did this especially on the jerseys. I created those shadows by creating shapes with the pen tool that would resemble the natural marks on a jersey when in movement. I filled those shadows with a white color. I then went to the transparency tool and played with the opacity until the shapes were not too visible and also not too invisible. When I created shadows on the skin I used the same process except I filled them with a black color and then lowered the opacity. Also for some of these players I had to create a beard. I did that by creating some line segments and once I had a couple I just kept duplicating using Shift + Command + Click and Drag. Once I had enough to cover their entire  beard spot I played around with the opacity until it resembled how it looks on the players in real life. To finish this process off I used the eraser tool to clean up around the beard area a bit.
