The Icon of 20th Century design art by: K-Statik Process: - This picture was actually done twice cause i could not clear the first image license. I'm happy i did so, because color of the latter were much more vivid. No pictures of the former version cause the photo is still unlicensed. - Image of rubberduck from http://budgetstockphoto.com was acquired, courtesy of http://budgetstockphoto.com (Could have used the duck.3ds but decided this would not give the gritty poster image I wanted) - Basic cropping/Masking was done on photo with multiple photoshop selection tools. - Duck was then posterized by brutally dropping out colors, using handmade posterpalette and then using replace color to finetune some parts. - Many hours of photoshopping, beer, cigarettes and white wine was used to finally achieve some balanced look. (Getting a color from palette is one thing, Getting a color you want from palette is another, Getting the color you want by using color mixer and retint, thats a bitch) Afterthoughts: - Should have been made to A3/150dpi originally, as now I can't print this :( Mandatory license information: - Original rubberduck image: http://budgetstockphoto.com
