Fake Highway Signs


This project has multiple steps to complete. I did remake one sign with my name and age with TRUTH above. It is nice to know how to warp text to make it curved. I found it is not good to merge down layers or flatten an image too soon. If you look too close the text VICKERS’ MANSION text isn’t quite right in my opinion. I wanted to reproduce the circle reflectors from the rest of the sign and made a pattern (like when we did the frog) to use. Brushing in this pattern is the way I left it. I did not add the last layer of adding directions, since this image does not have any sky to place it. I'm getting all kinds of ideas in my head on what I can create from my own photos now.
Student should be aware that if you do not complete the entire exercise, I cannot award you full credit. If you have questions, the best policy is to talk to me about what you are thinking before the deadline date.
