The final result of tens of hours of work for my final project for school. The project consists of two parts, the first of which was to write a 40 page document on the Basics of Computer Graphics. This is the second part, which was a practice task to manipulate and remake a famous painting or drawing. As one can easily see I have chosen Salvador Dali's The Elephants as the base painting I worked on. I actually stumbled upon it quite accidentally and I was immediately enchanted by it.
After I chose the painting I had to think of how to manipulate it, how to change it, what exactly to keep, remove and incorporate in it. The day I found the painting I also learned that a girl had made a Monkey Island board game and that made me very happy, since I am a big fan of the Monkey Island games. That was also the moment that I decided that it's about time I give a tribute to them, so I decided to blend Salvador Dali and Monkey Island. Crazy, huh?
I'm very happy with the final result as I believe that I was able to keep the surrealism of Dali, while in the same time blending it with the atmosphere of the Monkey Island games. Hopefully the fans will like it!
