Barbie Project

This was based off of the sprites of characters in Homestuck
As an example, here is John:

It pretty mush ended up showing a range of movement for the looks, though I couldn't seem to get the left foot to turn in a way that worked. The origional image was also pretty pixellated, which decrased the quality of the final image. It would work better if I could find a full-body image that was higher quality. It was pretty difficult to resize and warp everything to the correct size without distrorting shapes within each piece, like the tie

Magazine

I don't read magazines and have no idea how to place the titles well
I think I might've also chosen a bad color scheme

Pegabi

It takes a bit to change all the different colors, and I haven't found a way to change an area into different shades of a chosen color easily

Path Text

I had origionally tried to make the words sqished/larger in different sized areas while using paths as a base, but it's hard to get the text to warp correctly
People look wierd in text

Words

It would be nice if you could change the words for the type mask after you look at different layers
The effects are fun to mess with, and the text in the bottom right has several different effects

Aisha

It's hard to make something look normal when it seems unnaturally skinny to you in the first place
It's hard to keep a correct face shape, and also to change breast size

Retouching


Skin patterns can get kind of annoying fo follow when using the patch tool
Also, I don't like working on .jpg's because it messes up the evenness of colors, like how ajusting the eye color can show several vastly different colors all squished together

Blemish Girl

For some reason, the eyes seem to have had a lot of their color messed up in the origional image, so every other color I tried changing them to ended up looking blocky, with several different sets of colros
Though the slight blurring does make the skin look better, I think it takes out the other features too much, which shouldn't show as blurry
