couple pics turned to "inspirational posters"

carpenter · 28th of August 2008 (Thu)

these aren't really anything regarding actual sports shots so they fit better in here I think. Just made them to hang in the boy's room (he happens to be #1 as well so it kinda worked well with the one poster)

I like these. Nicely done.

Very well done. Both the B&W and selective coloring work well.

I love the first one.

Is it me or does the first one look a little like Peyton Manning?

I was thinking the exact same thing. Is that Manning as a kid?

These are going to look awesome in his room! Very meaningful as he is the person in the image.

Take a picture of the walls once they're up... we'd love to see it... at least I would.

thanks for the comments.

lol not a little Manning. As far as making them.. There really wasn't much put into them. Both were actual photos with the first being cropped in considerably to get the large face. (still prints 8X12 though). Second was the actual photo. I just desaturated the background to help the text stand out more.

First one I used CheetaPita's BW conversion action and then a midnight sepia action. Created a new layer with the sepia picture and lowered the opacity to about 15%.

Here are two more I made that are a little more "kid poster like"
