CDDA - Hammerpick beauty shot

Today I finished my beauty shot of my prop, the hammer pick. It was quite fun to do and taught me a lit about metal textures, specifically gold, and photo overlays. I ended up making the gold quite dirty because I didn't really like how it looked when it was clean. 

CDDA - Character texture reference/underlay

Today I referenced some images to use in my character beauty shot. These would be used under the colour of my choice to enhance it and make it more 3D, less flat. I got brown leather for the apron, gold for the boots, I got wool for the shirt but in the wrong colour so I will either change this in Photoshop or find more pictures, human skin though I would probably darken this slightly and black wool/black leather for the trousers.
