Digital Montage #2





The focal point of the violent picture you see above, is Waldo. I removed the lower half of his body and placed him in the shark's mouth. And I scaled him down to his teeny, tiny, usual size; like in the books & video games.

--Why would I do this to a legend like Waldo? Here's the story why: when I was a little kid, I used to play the Video Game, or look in the book, I could never find the little Jerk! (LOL) I never found him once! If you ever found him, even just once, post a comment, and whether you used the video game or the book, & how long it took you.--

I unified Waldo with the lips of the shark's mouth by finding the right curve with Waldo's waist and the curve of the shark's mouth. I changed the value of Waldo's brown brown hair from several different shades, to one shade of pure brown. I also did the same thing with is skin color, eyes, mouth and the shark's eye. I found the perfect shade of pink for his tounge (dead cartoon characters always have their tounge out when they die LOL).

I wanted to continue the break of real life and cartoons in this portrait. For most people, when they see a cartoon in a real life setting it's kind of a shocker. (Waldo is also shocked! LOL) because you would think that I would put another real life photo within this, but no. I want the viewer to have that shock/surprise.
