Fantasy Appliance Progress 03

 I took screenshots as I worked to be able to go back into the blog to document my progress/progress;

These were the external (unedited) images I chose to vector to be used for the background, foreground and inside the blender. 



Here are the images after I image traced them:



I used "shades of grey" on the pot of boiling water and the cloudy sky, and "4 colors" on the water image. I adjusted the water image to fit the artboard with the blender in it, positioning the blender into the center of the water rippling effect. The clouds I added to the background (above the layer with the water), before I selected various sections of the clouds, layering it on top of the blender layers (adjusting the opacity to around 30%-50% per layer.) I additionally pulled the steam from the boiling water image, and inserted it inside the blender to give it the appearance that steam was coming out of it. I deleted some of the darker layers in the steam, and changed the color of the base layers to make it a bit lighter.

 I'm not totally clear on how I am supposed to alter these images, so here is my current interpretation! I grabbed these images:  I used the masking tool to cut out the oatmeal packets and the pouring water, and then I layered the images in this order with these effects: Layer 1 (top): Boiling water image (blending mode: lighter color) Layer 2: Masked pouring water image (blending mode: soft light) Layer 3: Masked oatmeal packets (blending mode: lighten) Layer 4: Oatmeal bowl (normal) To create this:  I wanted to combine some of the stages of the cycle into one image; I feel like I incorporated some fun textures, shape and movement into this image. I intend to experiment with different images, using different effects to make a variety of iterations.

  This is an additional iteration- I am beginning to think it would be easier to take new images or think of a new theme- It is hard to incorporate purpose and new themes to the cycle of the beginning and end of an instant oatmeal packet.
