Something for the Weekend - Part 186 - Ted's great adventure!

[davescm]

Thank you to all who posted in out last wooden clog challenge.

This weekend we have a teddy bear who has been left on the shelf and needs an adventure. Unusually I have posted two starter images so that you can choose whether to bring the adventure to Ted using the first image, or take Ted to the adventure using the second (which I have provided with a transparent background to save you masking all that fur).

The “rules”:

* Use one of the starter images as at least part of your own image entry.

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

* Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum "regulars".

* There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off, or bring a bit of humour and fun. Don't be shy, join in and have a go!

* The starter images are made available for you to use in this forum challenge only. Sorry to emphasise this, but the images are not for use elsewhere.

To download one of the the images below, hover over the image and click on the circle with the arrows at the top right.

Then, when the image opens in its own window, right click and choose “Save Image As/Save Target As” (or similar depending on your browser).

When posting back your image – please use the blue reply button in this first post. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

Have fun.

Excellent ! Although maybe our SFTW ted needs to be a bit shabbier to show his age 🙂

So heartwarming to see the species cooperating 😂

Hm, cooperating? Sounds like in real business. 

[davescm]

Am I the only one that thought Ted is now stuck between a rock and a hard place 🙂

Dave

[Jacob Bugge]

I only realized when you said it, Dave.

And maybe even more chilling, the .. . . deep blue sea.

[Kathrin Federer]

He just pushes himself out everywhere!

[davescm]

Modern day Ted ! Nice idea Kathrin. 🙂

Just the start of the adventure Bob. He next joined a rock band and toured the world................ 🙂

Has Ted gone into someone else's adventure?

Other graphics credits from guess where 🙂
Needed to correct some AI unintelligent layering.

[davescm]

It didn't take long for AI to make an appearance here 🙂

Dave

[DeanUtian]

The AI still has a few things to learn. Not quite sure what's happening at the top of the jar of honey.

[Monika Gause]

I would rather think about the bottom, because that lighting cannot work that way.

Top of the jar: a handy shape to allow for pouring the honey right into Teddy's mouth so he won't have to deal with that honey ... tool thingy.

[Jacob Bugge]

I am more concerned about the honey tool thingy.

The real name is a honey dripper, usually misspelt/mispronounced honey dipper.

It is a tool especially optimized for use by old folk, bairns, and bears, but everyone can learn to use it to transfer honey from the inside of the jar to everywhere else, including the outside of the jar, table or other suitable surface, plate/bowl, and even to bread, bicuits, or other foods; and to the fingers of skilled users.

I wonder how much of the honey will end up inside the belly.

[DeanUtian]

Looks good Henrik. What's the item inside at the top? It looks liek a smoke detector. 🙂

[Henrik Heigl]

Hi,

I have no idea what that is, because I do not know how Adobe Sensei "thinks" 😉
But Sensei must have a lot of Imagination all the time 😄

[DeanUtian]

Yes, Adobe's AI does use quite a bit of creative licence 🙂

[davescm]

I like the way you have his ears sticking out of the helmet - nice touch!

Teddy for todays

Now that is a reflection on modern day 'adventure' - try a new burger ! Nice idea Didier.

Dave

[Peru Bob]

I laughed out loud (literally) when I saw that.

This weekend we have a teddy bear who has been left on the shelf and needs an adventure.

Dave's Ted has journeyed to Roosevelt Island in the Potomac River to pay respects to the 26th President he was named after: Teddy Roosevelt, the hunter who refused to shoot a bear.
