Random Items 1 - Photoshop Contest [10 entries]

Master Carver  Picture

Winning entry, with a score of:
63.5%
Contest goal:

In this contest, your goal is to create a photo-manipulation using only the 4 keywords provided:
- Hammer
- Duck
- Plate
- Teeth.
The end result should be seemless and include all of the items in the keyword list. All items should be clearly recognizable. Integrate them in an original way. The 4 items can interact in some way, but this is not a requirement. Let your imagination run wild and make a scene with these 4 totally unrelated items.
Good luck!

RayTedwell: Love this idea! More random word contests would be great, lets make this a regular feature! ( 5 years and 3485 days ago )
DanLundberg: Maybe it's just me, but I'm not sure what the restriction "using only the 4 keywords provided" means. That sounds like a text-only entry, but that would be somewhat inconsistent with the notion of a "photo-manipulation." I would replace the first line with "Random items" and then delete "keyword" from the first sentence in the bottom paragraph. [BTW I think you mean "seamless."] ( 5 years and 3485 days ago )
RayTedwell: good point Dan, the 'only' the four keywords will make life difficult... do we need that part? ( 5 years and 3485 days ago )
jaescoe21: dan: I understand it just fine. You have to put all of these in one image. The only thing that i don't understand is, Can we combine them? ( 5 years and 3485 days ago )
jaescoe21: What kind of plate? like a dinner plate or like a diamond steel plate? I know it says photo manipulation but can we draw anyting? ( 5 years and 3485 days ago )
DanLundberg: "Combine" would seem to be consistent with the notions of "integrate" and "interact," but the items must still be "clearly recognizable." As for what constitutes a "plate," that's what dictionaries are for IMO. ( 5 years and 3484 days ago )
solkee: I'm a little confused. It says "only the 4 keywords provided". Does this mean there should be no other sources involved? Can the Mod please confirm this. ( 5 years and 3484 days ago )
Alan2641: I would assume that any definition of the word will be OK since each word can have several meanings ( 5 years and 3483 days ago )
Contest Moderator: Backgrounds and other things can be used but the main image must be composed of the mentioned things ( 5 years and 3483 days ago )

All done by digital drawing.
I just had this idea this evening and had draw as fast as possible. It's not as good as I want but at least I can finish that in time. Sorry for the poor SBS, I have no time left now. Hope you like it (5 years and 3477 days ago)
