Photoshop Workshop: Week 2

As well as practising what we learnt last week, this week we learnt how to manipulate layers further and how to add colour as well as textures.

By the end of the session I had finished my first A5 image in photoshop. I originally had a plain grey tone for the elephant and then changed it to elephant skin using a stock image from the internet.

However it was suggested it should think a bit differently. Why not take a photo of a texture that wouldn't usually be associated with an elephant? So I took a photo of the carpet using my phone and uploaded it before editing it into my final image. The rough grey tone works well in my opinion as a replacement texture.
