-MONDAY-
"Denim"

I'm getting into this a step late in the dance, so to speak, and I'm in the wrong time zone to boot--it's Tuesday here--but this seems like such a darned awesome idea that I couldn't resist.

That said, here is my take on the first prompt. "DENIM."

My first thought: What? What the frick? Do they even have denim in the Avatarverse? Is this supposed to be a modern AU sketch, because I don't, um...what?

My second thought: Heyyyyy. Wait. What about that idea I had ages ago, with the cropping and the textures and the....yeaaaaaah.

One hour, one simple design sketch, several texture downloads, and a lot of cropping and magic wanding later...

I keep wondering if I could make actual patches like this and sell them...

This is my favorite of the "denim" entries so far. =3 I totally thought you had truly painted on denim, when I first opened it!

Wow, thank you! Yeah, it's 100% digital manip. I downloaded photos of paper and paint and cloth, then lassoed the shapes out of a simple design sketch I scanned, and used them to cookie-cutter the appropriate shapes out of the right colors and textures and paste them over the photo of denim.

(Katara's clothes and ribbon are denim, too! Just a finer, lighter weave of denim. :heart:)

I love the combination of the different textures. It looks like it would make a fun patch for jeans or something, lol, if this were the nineties XD. And it was fun to see something other than Katara in Daisy Dukes... ^^;
