I pre-soaked (data sheet says this increases contrast), I used a water stop bath (data sheet says this increases contrast) and I fixed for 5 minutes (guess what: data sheet says this blows the highlights).
Next time I'll check up on this beforehand.

Processes: I started this project by painting over a stock image of a forest I found online exactly how it was, with variation in realism. This in itself took me several days, but once this was done I came to the issue of what I wanted to do next, as my original idea was no longer sitting well with me. After some thinking and looking around online for artworks done similarly to my own for inspiration I decided to take a complete turn and scrap a main piece of my original idea, opting for something on a less realistic scale, aka the Japanese monsters. They were done relatively in the same way I did forest itself, with the mixer brush, and I believe they added a level of fun and creativity that I was looking for in my original idea that is just didn't quite grasp. I later did more revisions to finish the piece off, such as changing the placement of the main monster, added a noise filter to give it texture, then changed the hue to give everything a redder undertone.
Ideas: I wanted to manipulate and illustrate over an image and give it a more fantastical look while still maintaining the original picture beneath.

(from - Wrigley's 1918 British Columbia Directory) - CRAIGS CROSSING - a Post Office and station on the E. & N. Railway, 20 miles north of Nanaimo and 92 miles north of Victoria, in Alberni Provincial Electoral District. Nearest telegraph office, C. P. R. at Parksville Jet., distant 4 miles and nearest steamer landing-point at Beaver Creek, Union Steamship Co.'s boats, distant 2 miles. The population in 1918 was 55. Local resources: One sawmill, one shingle mill, logging and shingle-bolt camps in operation.
CRAIG'S CROSSING - James and Robert Craig arrived at Craig Bay in 1885 and in 1887 recorded their land claim. Besides sheep farming James was a busy teamster. He petitioned the provincial government to establish a wharf at Arbutus Point (now Madrona Point). It was completed in 1893 and known as Beaver Creek wharf. Coastal steamers came with supplies from Nanalmo and Victoria for the small settlement at Englishman's River. At one time there was also a hotel there but it burned down. The advent of the E. & N. Railway in 1910 curtailed the steamship travel up the coast. James Craig was very Involved In the extension of the railway from Nanalmo. His property became a construction camp, complete with blacksmith shop, equipment sheds and the office-home of the project engineer. Eventually a crossing and railway siding were built and became known as CRAIG'S CROSSING. Jim Kingsley recalls working there as a very young man. James Craig was also a local postmaster and road foreman. He earned the nickname "Couger" because of his prowess as a cougar bounty hunter. He and his two sons Duncan and Fred had such reputations as cougar hunters that they received calls for assistance from all over tt1e Island. His first car, bought in the 1920's was affectionately known as the cougar wagon. James' son Fred still lives on part of the old Craig property. - Compiled by Marjorie Leffler - LINK to the complete article - www.parksville.ca/cms/wpattachments/wpID584atID9714.pdf

Clipped from - Nanaimo Daily News newspaper - Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada - 20 April 1946 - JAMES CRAIG, 82 TAKEN BY DEATH - One of the most interesting and colorful figures of this section of Vancouver Island died early this morning at Nanaimo Hospital. He was James Craig, 82, pioneer of Craig's Crossing and renowned as leading panther hunter of this entire section. He came to the Island in 1882, from Prince Edward Island, of which he was a native son. Considerably more than 150 Island cougar fell to the gun of this renowned hunter who was the originator of the use of the breed of Louisiana racoon hounds, for hunting the big "cats' here. With his brother Robert he worked westward with C.P.R. construction in the early days. At that time the western terminus was at Lytton. From that point he walked to Vancouver, then taking a canoe for the trip to Comox. This was in 1885, and the canoe with all supplies was lost upon the Comox Spit. Landing safely, however, the' Craig brothers tramped back down the Island and ultimately took up a homestead at what Is now Craig's Crossing. Mr. Craig was predeceased by his wife, the former Gertrude Busby, and his brother Robert died 18 years ago. With his two sons, Duncan and Fred, Mr. Craig became famous as a cougar hunter and Island guide. Besides his two sons he is survived by two daughters, Mrs. James Lochore of Craig's Crossing; Mrs. Harry Pack of Ocean Falls and one grandson, Bill Pack, of Ocean Falls.

Process: I started this with simply painting over the original image I started with, a forest scene with a mostly water based foreground. Next I painted in the dragon, the lanterns, lilies, and spirits to add the fantasy side element to the piece. Once I was completely with these main things I began going through the whole illustration to add smaller details and play with layer styles to get different effects, such as the over all blue hue on top of the image. To finish it off I added a noise filter to give the whole image some texture.
Ideas: I wanted to manipulate and illustrate over an image and give it a more fantastical look while still maintaining the original picture beneath.
