fantasy

This is my favorite project so far, and this is the best outcome I have had in my opinion.  We were supposed to create a fantasy scene, so I decided to do zebras floating away in bubbles.  I used a waterdrop tutorial to get an idea of how to distort the zebras to make them look like they were in the bubble, and then used a "spectacular concept art" tutorial to get an idea of how to make the bubbles more luminous.

First, I had to find a picture with bubbles that would work for the project.  I had a few options... I obviously did not pick either of these.

Then, I found a picture of zebras and erased all but one, and the background.

The final was between the final i chose, and a final with sparkles instead of more luminous bubbles.  

fot his one, I used this tutorial for the sparkles:http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/designing-tutorials/creating-a-fantastic-fantasy-night-sky-in-photoshop/
