Procrastination is a silent villain, stealing valuable time and robbing people of prime opportunities to succeed. Slowly he creeps, and quietly he moves, whispering all the while, “Today is far spent, let it wait ’till tomorrow.” And as his victims lay in wait for a better time and greater opportunities, the voiceless pillager gradually draws his net.
Woe to those who allow the grass to grow beneath their feet, for in time they shall discover that not only has life passed them by, but they have also become prisoners to their own laziness and lack of self-motivation. Once entangled by the mindset of “Put-off ’till tomorrow”, there is little hope for escape.
Oh how many earth-shattering discoveries, incredible scientific break-through’s, and monumentally innovative advancements in technology we as a society have missed out on because of procrastination. It is impossible to fathom the enormity of the ideas that have never been explored or developed simply because men never found the right time to do so. Oh how much better off we would be if humanity wouldn’t neglect their duties and put-off responsibility!
And so, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a list of things to do before the day is finished, there’s not a moment to waste! Now where did I leave that lawn-mower?
Once the vines were generated in Blender, it was pretty easy to render the scene and export as a .png (which maintains transparency, making it really easy to just drag-and-drop into your scene). In the final render I removed the 3D placeholders and just rendered the vines, then I dragged them into Photoshop for the final composite.
Below is another screenshot of Blender showing how I created the 3D placeholders based off of my original image.
Once the vines were placed into my composite, I did some color adjustments, dodging and burning, added some fog, and also included a little gaussian blur. With everything combined, I ended up with this image. It’s very… green.
Well, that’s it for this week. Be on the lookout for more posts coming your way!
