These are media extracts from magazines that my brother, Don Dinnematin, featured in. I took the pictures one Sunday morning when the sun was really bright on our balcony. Surprisingly, they came out fantastically :)
This was my first group project in February at SDC. We had to create a bag using recyclable or re-usable products. We used pieces of a soccer bag sewn together using shoelaces and painted in proudly South African colours.
I did this one the same day as the gladiator one, but only got around to colouring it this week. I don't like it as much as the gladiator, but I think I was successful in getting the creases in her shorts correct - something I've battled with for a while.
These are from early 2008, when I was still relatively new to Photoshop. Playing around a bit with brushes, blending effects and getting comfortable with the polygon tools. One thing I battled a bit with was removing the underwear off the one model and placing her hair behind the glowing lights. But after many hours and tons of layers, SUCCESS!!!
During the whole Swine-flu craze, I was inspired by a group of primary school kids walking to school with masks over their mouths to protect themselves. I then got a cool idea to do a whole collection of "the living dead", starting with the kid. I then proceeded to do a zombie stripper, but didn't really have the time to create anymore - maybe one day, but not now. BRAAINNS!!!
I drew these two pics back in November of 2009. Each one took two days, but I was bored so it was very worth it. I learned a few new tips and tricks in Photoshop in the process, which helped immensely and takes up less time to complete. Knowledge FTW!!!
