Something for the Weekend - Part 247 - The finest cut!

[davescm]

Hi,
Thanks to all who took part in our previous 'Holding Pattern' challenge.

For our new challenge we start with a simple object, a pizza cutter, which I quickly modelled in 3D and textured in Substance Painter. You could use it to make an image cutting a pizza or put it to a new use entirely. The only limitation is your imagination.

When you post your response can you add just a few words on how you went about it. It may help others see the potential of different approaches, software, and tools to such a challenge.

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”.
• The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used. 
• There are no prizes apart from the chance to practice, show off your skills, or bring a bit of humor 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.

To download the starter image, 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). It is set against a transparent background so there is no initial cutting out required.

When posting back your image — please use the blue reply button in this first post and use the 'Insert Photos' icon at the top of the reply box. If posting a comment on someone else’s entry, then please use the grey reply button next to their image post.

Have fun!

Call me wierd, but I like the coloured post-its on the wall, although I have a feeling @D Fosse is going to have something to say about their color space profile, or whatever it is he calls it.

Trevor, I really hope you can lure Dag back.

[Jumpenjax]

I'm a post it queen. So I. Like it.

Cutting up the road!

He certainly will cut corners with that front wheel. I like the Ps emblem on the tank too.

Any poor haggis caught in the middle of the Queensferry Road is going to be instant halvsies.

Derek, that Photoshop logo placed dead centre of the petrol tank is driving me crazy.

Lee, I believe our Australian friends might say that the numerals have gone walkabout. Maybe they are (also) hungry, or just eager to cut to the chase (or cheese).

[Jumpenjax]

They did...lol.

Sometimes it is easier, and way more accurate, not to use Ai.  

[AlanGilbertson]

Are you saying there's more A here than meets the I? I'm inclined to agree.

[davescm]

A nice concept Lee.
As a side discussion, did you know that watch face roman numerals differ from normal roman numerals in that 4 is normally represented by IIII rather than IV. Apparantly it is done that way as it makes the face look balanced. Watchmaking is a hobby of mine. 🙂

Cool information, thank you. I will have to be more diligent next one out.

[Warren Heaton]

It's always a good time for pizza!

I'm sure Gucci is going to be all over this next season!

[davescm]

I would wear it 🙂

Thank you for sparing us the gory part, Euan.

[davescm]

Nice one Euan. I thought it might have been Baxters's, given your location. 🙂

Nicely done.

For sh*ts and giggles, I did use Generate Image to make the base kid with him holding a magnifying glass for reference, but in my first iteration (I wish I kept it to show here) the magnifying glass was EMBEDDED in the child's face! To be fair, my prompt was "child with a magnifying glass" so I guess I needed to be more specific that they should be separated! 😉
