This month, I left the 8 year old laptop I had finished the school year with. With the COVID situation continuing, I was in desperate need for sports, so I continued making jersey concepts. I had already finished a Chicago Bulls concept city jersey and began a Detroit Pistons concept on the ancient machine. Then, it was time to take the helm of the family desktop computer that doesn't melt in half an hour. Chicago Bulls Concept City Jersey I discovered that it wasn't all sunshine with my new computer. The flash drive with all my work on it wasn't big enough, the keyboard was messed up, the iCloud account was messed up (I have a Mac), it was hard to download Maya, but most importantly, Adobe Photoshop ended their free student service.
I solved all of the problems listed above except one. Photoshop. I returned to the nemesis I made last summer: Photopea. It was a little laggy and took some getting used to, but I polished off the Pistons concept. With mounting controversy over the Washington Redskins who had just started practices, I made a logo for the Washington Senators, a proposed name for the football team. It was nice to get back into Photopea, although it isn't my favorite program. I used a lot of quick select, creating objects, blending options, and hellishly aggravating minute brush movements. I barely touched Maya, due to a little of trouble downloading it and needing a break. Next month, I'm planning to make more advanced concepts with Photopea and work more in Maya, as I didn't do a lot this month. I can't wait to make more art. Summary
