Main Iphone



Finally the fifth times the charm. I finally got it right after a week or more of struggles.. I added a racing stripe to the Mercedes McLaren, and created a background for it. I worked harder than I ever had on this. Did I stop being lazy and start caring? Hmmm.......probably not, it's just that I got so much better at this. I wish this was an actual skin so I could use it on my Iphone. I could make more of these and sell them (if they were actual skins). I would make it into a show called pimp my Iphone.......did anyone laugh?

Fourth Iphone




Still didn't get it. Wow this assignment is hard.

First Iphone



This is the 1st Iphone skin I made. It looks so cool I don't wanna delete it. This isn't the one I'm handing in. I would lose marks because I didn't follow my thumbnails (original sketches).

Photoshop Assignment


Here is a project I had to do for my Grade 10 Communications Technology Project at my highschool, Applewood Heights Secondary School. I had to take a Chevrolet Corvette, change it's color, make it look like a compact, and put it on a new background. This is the first time I used photoshop. After 4 days of hard and painfully difficult work, here is what I came up with. It's not the best, but I think it deserves a 60%.

Top 10 Cars





















Yup! Here are my top 10 greatest cars. I put them in the order starting from the top Pagani Zonda, then BMW etc. I updated this with new and nicer cars. Enjoy.

1. Pagani Zonda F Roadster. I bet lots of you never even heard of this 700k car. With it's sleek design, it's your private getaway.
2. Mercedes Mclaren. This Daytona 500 car is the ultimate horsepower machine. One of the fastest cars in the world, but what do you expect from a Mercedes? They only make the best.
3. BMW M1 Concept. This sleek model, the best BMW produced is the best car so far. It might not be the most expensive but it's sharp and will turn any heads.
4. Maybach Excelero. This million dollar luxury sedan, driven around the world by world leaders will turn many heads around the world.
5. Lamborghini Reventon. This fast and cool Lamborghini is one of the sharpest cars you can see on the road. It will not disapoint.
6. Lotus Exige. This new and exciting Lotus is the best thing to appear since the first Ferrari.
7. Ferrari 360 Spider. This is Ferrari's best car. It will not disapoint with it's speed, it's the true sports car.
8. Ford Gt. The classic. Remade with the same qualities it had in the late 1900's, however with it's new, shiny, and modern improvements it will not disapoint anyone.
9. Porsche Carrera GT. The best Porche. This new and improved version of the Carrera is the ultimate Porche. It was the top sold Porche in almost every country (that can afford a car).
10. Alpha Romeo 8C. This sleek car from Alpha Romeo is the best thing to happen. It will never dissapoint. Aplha Romeo has the best cars that have the highest chances of surviving (with good car of course) for over 50 years.
