SPEEDPAINTING CHALLENGE nr. 28 - Strange adoption

Michael · 24-07-2005, 05:30 PM

Credit goes to RBL : this week we are to paint an unusual family photo - the parents are human, but the child is an alien. The photo is taken in an usual scenery - on the couch, the wallpaper in the background. The photo is filled with happiness, joy and love. Accent it with nice, calm, joyfull colours.

Think "Men in black", think "Stuart Little" and all the other films that I haven't seen or remember right now, but you can.

I think it'll be fun

RULES

PAINT!

PS. From now on I'll attach our OWN SPEEDPAINTING BANNER in the new threads and Chris-3DT is checking out if he can make something for us too...

RBL · 24-07-2005, 10:24 PM

He he, I´m on-fire! Thanks again.

I didn´t undestand this: "The photo is taken in an unual scenery - on the couch, the wallpaper in the background." You mean "unusual", "usual" or "anual"

?

interesting idea

I already have something in mind I think I'm going to draw... and I say this with a little, evil ulterior motive (hoho!

). I hope I find the time to make something properly out of the idea... but its for sure something which fits my interests more than last challenge. :P

But does it have necessarily to be the child which is the odd member of the family? Or could it also be the father, mother, friend, fiancee or etcetera?

Makes me proud.

If you need larger version, let me know (original is 1600x500, but looks better/sharper downscaled of course.)

2. Any medium is allowed, as long as it can be put into digital form - scanned, photographed, etc.

AHHH! I didn't read this through well enough - I thought the picture HAD to be digitally painted

I'll make a better one this time.

Michael · 25-07-2005, 09:17 PM

I meant usual, human-torch... Usual.

Tokai - you deserve that your work is the face of our challenges - it's a winning piece

. As for the family member - no it needs to be a child. It may look innocent, it may look devilish, but it needs to be a child. The reason for this is to make a contrast between parents and the child, between the usual background and child's looks. The contrast doesn't need to be seen at first glance, but it can.

qwed88 · 26-07-2005, 01:23 AM

Just to clarify, because I'm confused, the child is the only abnormal subject.
Everything else is normal?

I suspect your usual, and unusual or confused

I think it is where you wrote "The photo is taken in an usual scenery" I think it's the "an" that confuses me.
Sorry not meaning to correct, I'm just confused

this limits the range and sadly voids my idea too. argh. and I already had a cool story... now my head is empty.

It also voids 'ideas' like E.T., Adams Family, etcetera. too., but tarzan or jungl book could still work i guess, but which i do not going to draw anyway.

Michael · 26-07-2005, 04:24 PM

Qwed - yeah, I meant usual, normal, common scenery - a normal house, the parents sit on a normal couch holding an alien child............

Tokai - I'm sure you'll come up with something good.

RBL · 26-07-2005, 09:49 PM

It´s allowed to add some aditional details such a dog or other mascots?

PS Mike · 27-07-2005, 12:41 AM

First entry on this forum. I hope this is what you wanted.
Family made in Photoshop and alien made in Illustrator because head is hard to draw with mouse in PS. Made in 1.5H.

I think this weeks challenge has to many guidelines...
Hmmm, it's hard to be creative. I will try, but I don't know if I will enter this week.

qwed88 · 27-07-2005, 02:59 AM

Thanks Mike, I understand now, you have to forgive me I'm a little "slow" sometimes

RBL · 27-07-2005, 08:05 AM

Hehe! Now I have my idea. Could someone supply me a photo of a 60s-70s family from usa for reference?

Antievo-3DT · 27-07-2005, 09:44 PM

RBL:
I am looking for the same thing, lol! Well, I will tell you if I find something of interest.
And by the way, congrats on winning last week. I forgot to say...
