Tamara Artis 250 Posted February 3 On 2/1/2019 at 7:47 PM, Orwar said: Painters tend to do practice assignments of painting portraits and objects upside down to learn to ignore what they 'think' they see and focus on what the actually do see - not sure if there's any benefit of shooting pictures upside down. Sounds a bit like Pollocks to me. <- pun. This is something that's been somewhere in the back of my "to-do" list and I've read many times about various benefits we get from this. It helps even if we just flip the canvas while editing! Our brains tend to "create" things that aren't there or ignore something that's a bit off, for example some weird looking shadow will be ignored if you observe the portrait in normal mode, but if you flip it upside-down your brain will notice irregularities. If you are using the water as a mirror it helps to switch the width and height of the snapshot's size, I think... It's been ages since I tried any mirror shots. 5 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope #hashbang supplements their offerings a bit: they had some funky things! I have NO idea why I got the space suit, though. It was just pretty much impossible to resist. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scylla Rhiadra 16,660 Posted February 3 Not sure that this new skirt from MOoH doesn't make me look a little "younger" than I'm entirely comfortable with. But the 18 year-old rattling around inside me occasionally yells loudly enough that I have to pay attention, so I bought it anyway. The ripped top is from Gulabi. I'm not going to tell you what version of me insisted I buy that . . . Oh, and I need a skateboard (says 15 year-old me). 24 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I saw that skirt, but Neph has one that looks almost exactly like it from FashionNatic so I gave it a skip. And she's got the top! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FashionNatic makes some very nice things. I have a few -- I think I was put on to them by you, because of a pair of pants Neph had that I liked. Unfortunately, they make very little for Slink Physique bodies, or I'd buy more there. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
