Icarus 1.... almost there.

still gonna keep tweaking it. ways to go. but. one down. now sleep.

icarus in progress


so i'm doing 3 digital spots illustrating the myth of daedalus and icarus. Spot 1- Icarus gets his wings.
I'm still pretty new to this digital stuff. And although I tried to some degree, my Icarus still looks like my lovely model Stu. haha
This is maybe a fourth of the way done. And two more to do after this by thursday. I am... going to die.

I'm sorry Jim



I'm killing you. In addition to painting you not well, I am drowning you.

Not done yet.
Still gonna keep going.. We had to take a famous painting and then put a famous person into it and lotsa symbolism.
So, I took Millais' "Ophelia" and have Jim Morrison drowning. Since he was found dead in a bathtub. Throw in a peyote blossom, some jack daniels, a lizard, the eiffel tower, screaming butterflies, horse latitudes, girls with beads 'round their necks, and some feathers....

And I still have a lot of work to do. Not sure if i'll finish it in time, especially to the level I want to.
AKA i'm going to be v. unhappy with this no matter what .
