hmmm well i found this 3D model from a guy named "Stuzzi"...it's in my gallery...it's right along the lines of what you're looking for. maybe you can use it. maybe not. enjoy it anyways:

:zerb:

that is all.

...and thanks for the pic Nathan.. but i need something a bit more vertical..and something i can easily manipulate. oh..and a BP.. :)

i found a few images i'm playing with in Photoshop right now...gimmeeeeeee 20 minutes..K?

edit: I'm burned for the night...i've got class in the morning and i gotta get to bed

Google "Ball Python" and switch it to "Large Images" and you'll come up with a ton of results. The next best thing you can do is to get maybe a black glove (or white...for easy extraction in Photoshop) Wrap your ball python around your hand, pretending your hand is your body. get your boyfriend to take a picture or something and then bring it into photoshop, extract the snake and shape it to your body. If you need help...PM me :)


edit2: Here's an example of what i'm talking about...Cassandra won herp of the month with her RTB. https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...hand_45126.jpg

If you decide to use that one make sure you ask her permission :)

ok...i did one.. opinions please?

i found the img on this site.. http://www.ballpython777.com/spider/spider.html

hopefully they dont mind :)

You would probably do better to take a picture that works, and then incorporate it. Or have someone else take some.


That one looks soso, the perspective, angle, etc doesnt look natural

good job but it does look like you flipped it to fit. the head and body is upside down...looks like an uncomfortable snake. but you're on the right path for sure. keep us updated :)

This was the best I could do :oops:

:salute:

To be honest, the best way to get the image you want is to get a snake, wrap it around you and take the picture...manipulating a low resolution snake image (like the ones suggested above) to scale, depth and wrapped around the shape will be fairly difficult to do without it looking pretty fake.

Well i think what she is aiming for is a LARGE ball python...perhaps with the appearance of 15 feet or something. As she mentioned, hers isn't big enough to be wrapped around her. It's just an effect she's looking for. yes yes..we all know ball pythons aren't 15 feet...but photoshop is a way of expressing your imagination :)

do you have a high res version of that picture? It will make manipulating it a lot easier,

Yeah, what's up with that thing? A little creepy isn't it? :bolt:

Man, yer really making me miss my Photoshop; it's over on my Mom's computer and my new one will not let me DL it off the disk.. sigh..

I would take a pic of your snake, in the position you want and very high quality, and resize it to fit your needs. I really wish I could help; maybe this weekend if I go to the Ma's place.. grr I hate not having PShop!!
