Description
This one is created for a contest with the theme "the Matrix".First thing that came to my mind was the scene with Morpheus and Neo (or lets call it "high on Viagra"!!!)...
I started with a blank page. First thing i shaped the pill by adding blue shades and blurring everything until a nice blend was achieved. Here is a *.*gif file with the main layers in the image, so go check it out: [link]
Designed in Photoshop CS2 using a Wacom Intuos3.
It took me somewhere around 3 hours to achieve the final look.
Hope you guys like it and please let me know what y'all think!
Cheers!

"One the finest moments in modern cinematography." Yeah, that and when Morpheus and Neo fought for the very first time.
Good for you for winning that, in any case.

Really good work here man I'm happy youve finally posting something ya lazy bum.
Some tips: the middle pill looks a bit transparent I don't know if that's the effect you wanted to achieve ? You can also soften the edges of it just a tiny bit to help it blend with the bg a little.. Great work again tc!!
