Hello my friends it's me again..... time for some photoshop magic.

 I tend to go overboard on my scanning, but i can't help it hehe...
 These images are all scanned in separately and then with my superior Photoshop skills (haha yea right) i am then able to manipulate them till i'm blue in the face.....
 We were given a business card project in the distant past, but i don't think anyone really did it. This is a kind of attempt for FMP.  I LIKES :-)
 This magazine page helps my influence and research, so i decided to scan it in and work my magic. Combining my own drawn on acetate and scanned in images and overlaying them. By changing the settings i can create my own NEW magazine piece...

 Cropping is GOOOOD!
 This is a scan of of a linoprint on acetate, i love the different effects that you can create on Photoshop.
 A scan of my Project book, a combination of my signature glue and ink. and again.... wee bit obsessed with basic photoshop skills.... i overlayed my drawings.

 Two experimental exploration techniques that i am using in my project. I have used different processes to highlight each design.

New images from FMP design work :-)

 
This is the start of my design work for the dress i am making for part of my Final Major Project.
 I am just starting to work with fabrics, and this process is to help you understand how you can drape the fabric, as well as record design ideas.
 I had fun manipulating the fabric, though the mannequin has been on the drink i think, it kept falling on me!!!!
 I found i like layering to give a kind of greek/roman era effect.
 Got a bit obsessed with the fold :-)

 This is a flower made from newspaper and plaster with ink and glue dropped on for colour and effect. This was to give my project more of a 3-D area to work with. I decided to hook it onto the dress to see how it could look as a design.
 This looks pretty < oh yea that's the point!

 This is the next dress, i am still using folds as i think i work better with the more unwearable designs..... not really good at symmetry just yet, but 'practice makes perfect'

 Top bodice of the dress....
 More design development....

 Again using my 3-D roses helps visualize what i hope to develop and achieve later on in the project.
This was my last design it wasn't as good as some of the others.....i blame the mannequin :-)
But all in all for a first attempt EVER! i reckon there quite good
