This was my first attempt at Merging Creatures and I think it went really well. There were a lot of steps that were so tedious and I thought they'd make little or no difference in the final product. It surprised me when those time consuming steps really made all the difference. They would help show detail, or enrich the color, and all together they really made the final product come out great. Im most proud of the way the image looks exactly like the example. I know its important to make original pieces, but because this was more about learning the technique then creating a composition, I think that its important that I am able to make my product look like the original. My work did turn out like I thought it would, though I didnt go through the steps I thought I would. My favorite aspect of this project is how it is hands on and you create something in the end. I, however, did not like how the video instructor did a lot of talking and was not strait to the point. On a scale of one to ten i would rate this project a 9, i love the flexibility of the project and the creative aspect.
