Description
For those interested, here is the source image that I used to abstract from to create this piece: Anchor Source ImageCreated in Adobe Photoshop from a single photograph I took.
I will be giving a live 45 minute Photoshop session THIS Saturday at the DeviantArt 10th Birthday Bash in LA where I will be explaining pretty much all the techniques used in this piece. But I will be creating something completely different. Come out!
Like always, all standard and widescreen sized wallpapers are available at my website, EndEffect .

No this actually isn't the piece I was working on, I completed this the week before.
The piece I was working on at the Birthday Bash is very close to being complete, I will have it up in a few days.

Hmm... very... Darn, I can't quite remember the word that would describe this... Gosh, it's going to bug me for the rest of the night.
Anyways, this is a very nice for what looks like a banner.

Dude. It was a ton of fun. Although I kind of hid myself in front of the laptop I was using for most of the night because I was determined to finish my piece. I met $Moonbeam13 who was awesome, saw lolly who I haven't seen since the Summit. Hung out with $liquisoft quite a bit, met $endosage for the first time. Talked with $spyed quite a bit.
The tutorial was really fun and I actually wasn't nervous at all while I was doing it. The only bad thing was that my Flip camera died on me 10 minutes into the tutorial so that is all I have, plus some random clips my friend took on his camera. I am going to try and put them together then get them uploaded asap.
I will be making a pretty large journal entry here on my 10th anniversary which is in 4 days about the Summit, the Bash, and everything DA. Look out for it! ;D

I really, really wanted to go mostly because I wanted to meet Danie 
Ryan has a really, really, really firm handshake
Did you do a lot of talking during the tutorial? I TRIED making some video tutorials, which I'll put up soon, and I always begin with "I just... can't talk while I'm painting. So I'll explain, and then you guys watch... and... well that's it really."
So you took a bunch of photos then?

Yes, Danielle was awesome. It was pretty chaotic though, towards the end of the night I had the opportunity to give her a sweaty goodbye hug, lol, I think she was dancing beforehand.
I concur about Ryan. I was really glad we hung out and talked because he comes off completely different online, to me at least. He is a really awesome guy.
The tutorial talking thing is exactly how you described it! At the beginning I told everyone that I was probably not going to talk much, and to ask questions when I got quiet. I probably talked for maybe 10 minutes total out of the 45.
I actually didn't take many photos but my fiance did. You can see them on her FB here, [link] !/album.php?aid=2055150&id=1312682396

I always thought Danielle's kind of hot. Something to do with the bone structure. I hope she sees this too.
Dude I don't do FB
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL! Hopefully she does!
I will get the pics up somewhere else, I planned on doing that anyway. But that is where she put them first.

It's too bad most of your work can't be truly enjoyed without getting to look at a large print or the original full resolution image.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha! So true man. I bet you enjoy looking at those full res 300 dpi images don't you! ;D

That would be a safe bet.

My old school panel is at the same time, but I REALLLLLY want to see how this is done. I assume everything will be recorded and available online?

We have Ustream feeds going from choice webcams in the venue.
There are feeds covering the following areas:
- Main Stage
- Tutorial Area
- Art Wall (1 & 2)
- Arts & Crafts room
So you'd be able to grab the webcam video later on, I think. Keep in mind this will be a stationery camera, though.

DUDE! I am thinking the EXACT same thing about the old school panel! LOL
Yes I will be personally recording it with my Flip and putting it online the next day!

But I will be personally recording my session and putting it online!
