Something for the weekend - Part 13 - Great Eggspectations!

[davescm]

Hi

This weekend I thought we would try an Easter challenge. It is traditional here to decorate eggs at Easter, so the challenge this week is to use the egg below and either decorate it or use it as part of an image. You could go for a traditional approach, or turn it into a "Faberge" style egg, or make a scene and characters...........the world is your oyster (or egg)!

Anything goes as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright etc.

Anyone is welcome to have a go - whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert.

There are no prizes - just the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun.

When posting back your edited images please use jpeg and downsize to 1200px on the long side. 

To download the image below without the forum scaling artifacts, right click and then use Save Image As / Save Picture As (or similar depending on your browser).

Enjoy and have fun.

I'd be eggpecting lots of egg puns on the way

[Terri Stevens]

eggstraordinary idea Dave, but is this just a yolk?

[davescm]

Thanks so much Jane !

[Guest]

That's amazing Jodi

[Jodi_Frye]

Wow Ged thank you !!!

[Terri Stevens]

Beautiful work Jodi, very similar to what I was thinking of doing , so back to the drawing board

[Jodi_Frye]

Thanks Terri ! If I had of known your thoughts I would have done it another way

[Terri Stevens]

Don't worry Jodi, if worse comes to worse I'll just draw Dave's face on the egg, fortunately I don't need to worry about the complexities of hair with him-what am I saying Trevor Dennis will already have that one covered, he can't resist making fun of Dave .

Happy Easter Everyone

[Jodi_Frye]

I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with Terri ! Sounds like you have a great plan !! 

[davescm]

Jodi - Nicely done !

Jane - I thought I was looking at five of me there

Terri - what do you mean no need to worry about the complexities of hair.........

I have an eggcuse for this one, it's the first time since 1927 that Irish pubs are allowed to serve alcohol on Good Friday which until now we called it Dry Friday

P.S. haven't a clue why the dog is in the egg in the middle of a storm
