So from our model; design cont'd

We took pics of our model and we had to make sort of a tapestry with them; one is symmetrical, the other is asymmetrical. We are only allowed to use one photo at a time for each of the pics of the model we took (mostly close ups). We're supposed to do these by hand, but I thought that it would be more efficient to figure it out in Photoshop first, and then go from there. So these are the ones I used from my pics of the model. I posted the original pics so they could be seen, too :) It reminded me a LOT of the Islamic architecture, which I LOVE. The sacred geometry and tiling.

    I love the first a-symmetrical image. Some very cool shapes and pockets of light and shadow going on there. The symmetrical ones def remind me of Islamic architecture as well. Lovely work!

    Thank you! :) I have a lot of fun with these and I have sculpting (from life)
    on Mondays so it ties in quite nicely this semester. I need to tell you
    about my trip to Rome in the next few years (probably either next year of two years
    from now. Prof has a drawing/painting/sculpting ten day Rome trip and
    I'm DEF interested! It's during the summer, usually (about June/July-ish).
    Oh, I'm currently (like right now) working on yet another model.
    We're taking the stronger of the 2D images and using it to create
    a 3D 'terrain' that has both depth and follows the 'lines' of the 2D image.
    I LOVE that idea. Taking 3D back to 2D back to 3D. Typically it's
    difficult once you take something to 2D to view it as a 3D object again
    with rhythm, movement, depth, etc. I can see why a lot of architects
    LOVE sculpting!
