Frankenstein Project

For my "Frankenstein" project, I used photoshop to create this figure. I started with Robert Downey Jr.'s head because he is my all time favorite actor. On his face, I added shadow to the right side of his face to create some mystery. I also changed his eye color to a bright blue and added scars under his right eye and on his right eye brow. I changed his hair color to a lighter brown. For the arms, I used a picture I found of Michelle Obama and cropped out the rest of her body. I changed the color of her arms and the color of Robert's face to make them match and look like they belonged to the same person. For the chest, I used a gorilla body and put in some chains around the neck. I used jeans and sneakers for the legs and had to brighten the outer line of them to make them stand out from the background. I also added some darker shading in between his legs and under his feet. Next, I put in the forest background and colorized it so that the figure stood out more. I also made the figure a little bit smaller to look like it was actually in the frame. I erased some of the leg and right hand so that it looked like there were some objects in the picture's background that were in the foreground and to make it more realistic. Lastly, I put in the surf board for my figure to appear to be on. This was an easy way to make the image be slightly more weird :) and to get around manipulating the feet to look like they were standing on the rock. Enjoy! (:
