EXPERIMENT: Pattern

For this experiment, I decided to look at patterns as I want to use one for the end pages in my final piece. Initially I drew out a simple spaceship/ufo, then scanned it into photoshop and adjusted the levels.




After this, I messed with the drawing in photoshop by adding a drop shadow, changing the colours and removing the black line to see what it looked like.






I then used the above image to create a pattern in photoshop using the pattern stamp tool to enable it to be used as a pattern. I created a new document and applied the pattern:




I thought this was too plain and boring, so I used the shape of the original drawing and filled it with a pastel blue colour. 


I then used this on a layer underneath the original pattern and lowered the opacity. This was the end result:
