140/365 # When I am king . . .
Don't be scared, I haven't gone mental or anything . . . this is just an idea that got a bit out of hand! Hopefully you can tell this is tongue in cheek by the way I'm not holding a gun but have shaped my hand/fingers in the shape of a gun like a kid?
Radiohead fans might get where I'm going with this straight away, and it could be a companion to my shot from day 65 as they both reference the same line from Paranoid Android. Except this time I'm trying to interpret the lyrics visually instead of using words. Well, almost not using any words.
This shot came from me desperately trying to work out what words I could make from the letters on my 'Working Class Hero' t-shirt - and 'king' sprang to mind, which made me think of the song, which made me think of doing this clone shot.
I had to wear my t-shirt backwards to get the 'KING' bit on my shoulder . . . true story. The blindfolded me's t-shirt I had to cheat on a bit and clone out all the words, replacing them with the '1st' using the plain ol' boring text tool in Photoshop.
The shot really didn't look too good until I put the TTV border and wall texture on it, the textures hide a lot of what was wrong with the cloning, if you look at the hand belonging to the me in the foreground you can see that it looks false where it overlaps the blindfolded me. Which is irritating, but it took me at least three attempts to get it looking like that. And well over an hour. And I think the textures do mask the slightly crap processing enough for me to be happy uploading it.
Soooooo . . . a bit of a random one tonight, but at least I've managed to carry on my mini-series and get a sly Radiohead reference in!
