collage

This is a collage of brightly-colored cats made to show off my brightly-colored plushie.

--Original images--
The image in the foreground. Other than removing the background, nothing was done to it.

Different cat pose. Removed background and heightened hue/saturation with selection tool to create a mask.

By Zachary Tirrell. Used color replacer with some blurring.


By eloH. Changed hue with mask

From apollo pet sitting Separated kittens and bed into 2 layers; used gradient map on kittens, touched up bed with clone stamp tool before using photo filter.

The cat doesn't show up, as this was mostly used for the background. The color was changed from the gradient map and photo filter on the image above it.

alterings

Smoothed out the edges a bit and brightened everything

inverted colors; lowered brightness and vibrance

Four images that seem to show off the cat's pinkness

Sitting cat with a new Alice in Wonderland background.
Kung-fu cats creating the illusion of perspective(with a starry background)

I think black helps bring out the cat's brightness.

poses

Interesting

My subject: A large cat Beanie Baby that is mostly pink, with yellow above its nose, on the tip of its tail, and in its ears, bright green on its feet, and blue outside its ears. It has a bright green bow around its neck and a bent tag through its left ear. There is a chain around one leg.

What interests me about my subject:
-Its bright colors
-Its floppy arms, which seem to default with one in the air and the other across its chest
-Its softness(not full of beads like normal Beanie Babies)
