Yours Truly Scenes

August 23, 2013 By f.pulicicchio

Today’s work on Yours Truly included the final student creation and inserting into scene 11, adding Hebrew on the chalk board for scenes 11 & 12, and a little change to the hair of the aunt in scene 12 to give her hair more body.

Continuation of story scenes II

August 23, 2013 By f.pulicicchio

Today I’ve assembled a little more, created new characters, tweaked old scenes.

I gave many of the characters a wider variety of complexions.

Scene 7: I darkened the complexion of the characters and added a soft pink glow to the scene to add to the soft glow/love look

Scene 4: I darkened the skin of the children and mother, created a young child for the lap of the mother removed the locks from the boys, and added a more rustic table. Not sure what to put in the background. Will add more food later.

Scene 5: I darkened the complexion of the girl on Skype and added a Skype logo

Scene 8: I added a mixing bowl to the grandmother’s hands, a wallpaper, some cookies, and a more rustic stove.

Scene 6: I adjusted the lighting so the time of day looked more accurate.

Scene 11: I changed the background entirely and did a lot of tweaking and clone stamping to remove any hints of the anthropology classroom. This photo was easier to work with. I also created two Ethiopian student characters for this scene in the style of the other characters. I need to create perhaps a female 3/4 view character to go in other desks.

Scene 12: I clone stamped out any English on the blackboard and will put Hebrew up there. I also added the Aunt character.

Continuation of Yours Truly Project

August 19, 2013 By f.pulicicchio

Today I made all the primary characters in the style of Alex’s original characters and only have 2 babies and a couple of Ethiopian students to make.

I have begun assembling surrealistic/skewed perspective scenes. Both I have begun working on will require more tweaking to fit in with the dreamy feel of the other scenes.

Continuation of story scenes

August 15, 2013 By f.pulicicchio

Today I continued to work with story scenes. I selected basic backgrounds and started color correcting and building them. In order to stay true to original artist’s visual style, I modified premade charcters to have an Orthodox family appearance. The mother will have a child on her knees and the family will be singing. I slightly modified the grandmother mock up to be actively making food in a mixing bowl.

I still need to create children for the Orthodox family, the Uncle and his partner, and several Ethiopian students. These scenes are still in progress, but I expect to be close to the completion of the project by the end of next week, only needing final touches
