Image Number Six

All resource images can be found in my research. I started this image by dropping the city scene a little and removing the sky with the magic wand tool, amongst other things.
I then brought in two pop art images to fill the space where the sky had been.
Finally I brought in a new sky image and used Darken to bring out the pop art faces.

Image Number Five

All resource images can be found in my research. In this image I removed the windshield with the pen tool to reveal the image on the layer below.
I then used the pen tool to remove the rear view mirror and reveal another image on a lower layer.

Image Number Four

Blogger seems to have a habbit of putting my images in the wrong order but nevermind! Once again all reference images can be found in my research. The first thing I did to this image was add Rolling Stones tattoo to her right arm.I then began building a front cover for Rolling Stone, this addition featuring Twiggy.
After the title, I added a few extra items to the front page to try and make it look more like a genuine magazine cover.

Image Number Three

These images are not in the correct order but hopefully the progression is clear. All resource images can be found in my research. This image in particular bares a strong resemblance to one of my reference images. I thought it might be an idea to recreate the Swinging London poster with a more local feel.
Firstly I arranged the images accordingly. Once the images were in similar places to those in the original image, I altered the hue, saturation and brightness to create a familiar scene.
Once the images were in place and had been altered, I adapted the banner across the bottom to something more suitable.

Image Number Two

Unfortunatly I only have the final image for number two, although working is visible in the psd. All resource images can be found in my research. The first thing I did to this image was part Jean Shrimpton with her background using the pen tool. Once she was in place, I used the dodge and blur tool to settle her into the image. Finally I added a shadow to her and the Vespa to help them fit in.

Image Number One

Unfortunatly I only have the final image for number one, although working is visible in the psd. All resource images can be found in my research.

The first step in this image was to seperate my head from the body and previous background, I did this using the pen tool. After moving my head into place, I used the clone tool to match my head to Ringo's body. I then altered the hue, the saturation and the brightness to match the source image as much as possible. Finally I removed any visible trace of Mr Starr.
