As with the last enviro I relied heavily on masks for this image, however this time I tried to take it a step further by using the masks to create suggested detail by painting with texture brushes in the masks and smudging in them also.Simon Buttershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04495580176866219356noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1724170990276292908.post-35090801576839986702010-12-01T01:17:00.002+00:002013-01-07T16:00:31.034+00:00Enviro Practice<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Two images, the first is something I've been fiddling around with on and off as Im not sure exactly where I want to take it and will hopefully post a finished version sometime soon.
