Post by: Bastos on Thu 07/10/2004 12:24:05
Hey everybody,

I was testing some stuff in photoshop and started converting an image from lsl3.
I am halfway but wanted to show you guys already the progress....

WOW, great
some critic thought
*does the eyebrowns in the left eye disapears
*the hair is GREAT(maybe a little too realistic ofcourse that won't change a bit)
*also in the game she looked like a sexy woman ready for action
:-X but the proplem is that now she looks like a normal women, maybe that can be fixed by adding a little makeup on eyes and something else(im no specialist in this)

overall a great work
can't wait for the game itself

Well, the eye brows, i haven't created them yet.... the eye lashes could use some more refining....

Good points on the makeup, when the face is done, i prob should add some.

Just a remark, i am not working on a game or lsl3 remake, i am just recreating some ega screenshots to vga for practicing my photoshop/drawing skills....

Thnx for the comments....

L8r!

Hey,

another update, only have to do the right side of the hair, neck, and the lips(which prop is the most difficult to get right)

I am drawing at a resolution of 320x200 but have resized it to 640x400 to make it better viewable, also added some grain to get the sierra effect from the 90'ties..... :)
Also added some make-up to make her more haba haba...

not sure how i can add the image to the message itself, so here is the link

Wel, wel, some cool stuff, very good airbrush-like conversion. Only what bothers me are her eyes, she now looks ... naive?, rather that hot.

You want to give some depth to her eyes, I suppose this is still early WIP but I did a quick edit anyway to show what I mean:

Original:
(http://users.pandora.be/karick/lsl3-2.jpg)

Edit:

(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/lsl3-2-edit.jpg)

Just some shading. (Maybe she looks like whore now... :/)

Her lips could use some touch up too. But keep it up, it looks great so far, it seems like it's going to be very good picture.


BTW to display pictures directly on forum use code like this:

Hey Jaz,

you are absolutely right... good edit btw.

Will give it a try later this evening, and use your tips...

Thnx

Glad you like it, you will certainly do it better than me. I'm looking forward to it. ;)

Are her eylashes supposed to look like they are all glued together with too much mascara? I think jaz's edit was a bit OTT: she looks more drag queen there than in yuor one, Bastos. Maybe its just that mouth still being pixellated: its freaking me out!

Yes, it is a lot OTT ;D, but it was just to show what I mean... It should be OK with lighter shading. And yes, maybe it's mostly the lips.

Jaz- very good editing... but, holly cow, you just made her 10 years older!... :) If you'd do something like that to girls in beauty salon, they'd rip you apart ;)

I'd never played lsl3 and never seen the original picture, but was it the original or just my feeling that her eyes are not of the same size?
Title: Re: WIP: Converting ega image form LSL3

Hey,

i am pretty sure they eyes are the same size, maybe it's because of the make-up laying pretty thick....

Anyway, got a new update here... i created the mouth, worked some more on the eyes and started working on the right part of the hair.

Enjoy

Original
(http://users.pandora.be/karick/lsl3-0.gif)

For the eyes what did I change.....

Added some soft shadows at the top of the eye, just like Jaz suggested.
Made the pupils a bit larger
Added a small white dot to make the eyes more alive
Deleted and added some black around the eyes

Well, in order to help the victim of infamous "Mascara Incident" I spent a couple of minutes on making her look a bit younger:

Still there's something that bothers me on her eyes but I can't quite place my finger on it....

EDIT: Bastos was quicker...

EDIT EDIT: Now when I see the original I see it. There are no eyelids on our edits... But never mind who says it's supposed to be exactly the same chick...

Well, it's done,

if it was a screenshot for an real project, maybe it could use some more refining....

(http://users.pandora.be/karick/lsl3-4.jpg)

Some info :

total time to create : about 6 hours.
The whole image is created using the following tools in photoshop
Airbrush, Smudge, Burn and dodge to create the face using different exposure and opacity settings.
Total image has about 23 layers.

I will prob start another one next week, i'll create a tutorial then, maybe it can be usefull for other people here....
