I forgot to point out CJ Wilson’s blue glove hiding in the bottom left (i had a printout that said who was who) so he didn’t sign it. I’m going to track him down in the bullpen at some point this season to finish it off. I originally had significantly more players on it but it was just too crowded.

and obviously thankyou!

Yeah my reference pic was a photo I took last year, which is reflected in the billboards and advertisements (well generals shapes of advertisements) as well. Nice eye on the flags though that hadn’t even occurred to me.

thanks.

Another thing i noticed is that Hank and Crush both throw with their right hands… not the Left!

(and thanks to all those who have complimented, though I don’t want to spam it up with individual replies without anything I can add)

Reference – some of both. For the most part I had the reference on my left monitor and the file on the right, but I’ll admit there are some areas I copied some of it over and pretty heavily flicked parts of an image on/off (particularly the building backdrop and getting the infield outline) but other parts (big videoboard section,stuff on top of the roof, foreground) wern’t in the photo and were done with reference from photos that were from a completely different spot in the stadium and thus redrawn in the correct perspective. So I certainly wouldn’t say I blocked out the whole thing without some abuse of photoshop’s power, but it wasn’t all tracing or anything either. Plus the completely different lighting/shading/etc.

Well to get to the cartoon/early realistic versions in the fanshot that was about 2 weeks of working 4+ hours a day on it. To go from that to the new version posted in this thread was another few days of that lately after not working on it for a while. Since its not under the pressure of an actual work thing I typically waste a lot of time redoing small lighting changes and messing around with different versions and alterations and such that wern’t really necessary.

Job- I wish. Trying to but so far no I havn’t been steadily paid for photoshop or any digital art stuff. Anyone wanna buy a full quality print =p?

i work in the clubhouse and we clubbies got it signed for you. the guys loved it though. especially nellie and elvis. it’s even better in person.

I don’t know about overkill though, its the most popular graphics program there is and in the same product package as illustrator heh. The advantage to illustrator would be vectors and thus not worrying about resolution and avoiding the high file size/save times this large file did. But thats just the first stage, I’d go right back to photoshop for all the shading and later textures/clouds/etc. in the realisitc version anyway.

ever use lightroom?
its what ive been using and really like the work flow and quick editing features and tweaks

radish…

btw the squash being a pain in the ass. I’ve planted it many times but this year it seems i’m having more of a problem inadequately pollinated squash. my squash is not doing to good right now. however the cucumbers are.. can’t figure out why the squash is not doing good. i’ve got some squash but it’s becoming a pain in the ass cause i don’t think i’m going to harvest what i did last year
