The Evolution of a Poster, and a Birthday!

Hello everyone! Happy Valentine's Day! Although it's actually after midnight, so I suppose I'm a bit late. I'm just going to go on pretending that it's still the 14th and tell you all that today is my 21st birthday! So to all my friends and family that helped me celebrate, thank you all so much! I got super-awesome art tools PHOTOSHOP and an awesome DIGITAL CAMERA that not only takes pictures but HD video! Expect movies from now on. Oh, there will be movies.
But for now, here's the evolution of a poster I made. To start, I googled one word ("propaganda") and made an image using only google images from that word:

Then, I printed the image out, and drew/painted on it, added paper and cardboard, etc, to get this:

I then scanned the new image, opened it in Photoshop, and added more things (because it didn't have enough dragons the first time, apparently.)

After that, I (you guessed it) printed it out yet again. At this point, I was getting kind of tired of looking at this image, so as my final product, I altered it quite drastically. Once it was printed out, I cut it all up and painted and screenprinted all over it:

So there it is, my final product...a 22x30 poster of this guy's head!
