Something for the Weekend - Part 192 - Get a grip!

[davescm]

This weekend's start image is brought to us by community expert @jane-e  
Jane took this picture whilst visiting the Audubon State Historic Site in St. Francisville, Louisiana. It is a metalwork vice (or should I spell that vise for our friends in the US) and our challenge is to use it in the creation of a new image.

The “rules”:

* Use the starter image 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 image is made available for you to use in this forum challenge only. Sorry to emphasise this, but the image is not for use elsewhere.

To download the image 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.

Just a random idea 🙂

When the archiolgogists dig it up in 2000 years - I wonder what they'll make of it?

@c.pfaffenbichler I'm curious what your process was for the restoration. It looks great!

[c.pfaffenbichler]

Thank you. 

I used lots of vector masks and painting.

Welcome Eddie - it looks like the vice has been stolen and placed in a new workshop

Built for speed. I honestly had no idea how this would turn out when I started. 

[Trevor.Dennis]

My favourite so far.  I love the flames.

[Dean_Utian]

Tuned out brilliantly. Well done.

[davescm]

Brilliant - Excellent use of the starting object!

The park cops will be by soon with a 'Move along sir. You can't be sleeping here.'

Or they might say 'Get a grip'.

[davescm]

Haha - a good twist and bonus points for using the old starter image Jane 🙂

Dave

[Dean_Utian]

Something different to do.

The teacup takes me back a few years Dean — to 2018!
