These are the parts of the source that I used to create the robot
step 2 of 17
This is the screenshot of the mail from Jason to allow me to use his image
step 3 of 17
These are the steps that I made the head, from some pieces of the street behind the mailbox and a rusty box. The eye on the forehead was drawn by pen and brush tool
step 4 of 17
Use one mailbox, double, rotate and blend to itself. I will use this method several time to create different parts of the robot
step 5 of 17
Make the finger from the one I created last step. Use burn, dodge tools and clipping mask to change the lighting, shadow
step 6 of 17
step 7 of 17
Use the yellow piece from the mailbox that I extracted from the 1st step, duplicate and rotate 15 degree, use action tool to repeat that until I have a full round shape
step 8 of 17
Distort it to make the body part
step 9 of 17
The same piece was used by other way as you can see in the image
step 10 of 17
Distort and make the lower part of the body
step 11 of 17
External sources were used
step 12 of 17
Another source was used
step 13 of 17
I used the white mailbox, duplicate, blend to itself, use that image to make the bottom part of the robot
step 14 of 17
Put the robot on the top of the background, blur the background by lens blur
step 15 of 17
This is the image of Jason that I used
step 16 of 17
Extract him, put onto the scene. Use puppet wrap to change the position of his hands and arms to fit the image that I want to create.
Use pen tool to select an area covering his body, duplicate the selection and manipulate it to the tight shirt (change color, darkness, shadow, ect.). Make some shadow under the "shirt" to make it be more convincing
