Valentines Photoshoppage

First of all, I'd like to apologise for the size (in both pixels and kilobytes) as it's quite large - but I wanted to put some real effort in here and try and make something at least a little bit special. This is my contribution to Valentines Day '06 and has taken some rather intensive brushwork, a few hours and about 6 cans of Cream Soda.

Anyway, here she is:

Ok, so who is she? And why is she wearing knee-high boots when she's clearly on the beach because she's wearing a bikini...

Having a bad day? Let's start this from the top. She's not clearly on a beach because she's wearing a naval officers uniform (well, half of one). As for the boots, try asking any professional photographer why he'd want a hot celebrity to wear anything made of leather. As stated in the sub title to the thread, her name is Catherine Bell and she played Susan Ortega in Bruce Almighty, she also starred in Jag.

looks great, my only qualm with it is the spacing in will you be my valentine...i can tell you are trying to justify it with the date ; perhaps make the kearning wide throughout the sentance as opposed to just in between the words..

Appreciating the crits there mate, however that's the spacing on the font I used. I see what you mean though and I'll change the font and mess with the spacing myself.

Thanks guys (Y)

Argh, Ive had photoshop on my PC for yonks and never used it more than resizing images or saving them as jpegs...

Great stuff (Y)

You should read up on some tutorials mate, it's a great program.

In case anyone's interested - I made a 1280x1024 wallpaper version available here should anyone want it.

looks good mate, just wodnering, did you make brushes to do the fvlowery bits around her and the background?

I'm not too bad at photoshop but can't figure out how peeps get that sort of flowery effect.

*goes to put catherine bell into google images* :-

He isn't actually sending it to anyone, it's just typography. More then likely asking the girl in the picture to be his valentine.

You people don't understand art. :P

Good work Smo, is really good, and to get the appreciation of brendan take's a lot. :P
