Gumball Machine Progress

Hey guys, it’s me again. Hope you had as nice of a weekend as I did!

Well, let’s cut down the chase. Over the weekend I’ve been working on my gumball machine after losing all the work I had done from before. From my perspective, this one looks spiffy and much better. It went a lot quicker since I already knew the style I was setting out, and how to airbursh it. I finished up the machine itself, and set the layers accordingly so that it looks realistic. I was trying to get the background done by today, but I just didn’t like how it was turning out so I decided to scrap it and start it up again on another day. Here’s my progress so far:



I purposely put the random background to see how the gumball machine, with the white 'bubble' glass would look with a backdrop. It turned out pretty good if you ask me, and don't mind me showing how many layers it took to get the right outcome!

Today I'm probably gonna finish up the gumball machine for it's due date. I can't wait because it's actually pretty fun doing art. It used to be a hobby for me (using Photoshop), and it's been turning into that again.

Until later, cya!

P.S. I know I have to do the layout, but I'm really lazy. I'm probably gonna hold off on it, but I'm for sure that before this unit is over I'll have a nice and custom-made layout.
