An interview with...~Lauriine
1 What part of the stock gallery do you browse most?
Textures; models and nature
2Do you browse for specific images or do you look through to see if something inspires you?
I am looking trough all of stock images and looking for some sets that could inspire me
3What are your chosen tools that you use when working with a stock image?
It all starts in my head, I am thinking of composition etc. then I open my loved Photoshop. Make a scene I have imagine, and then all starts with erasing tool, then it is turn to my loved selective coloring etc.
4Do you have any tips to help other stock users that will make stock-crediting easier?
I think it is much more easier when stock artist is giving a compressed file which includes not only those images but also .txt file with crediting rules!
5What would you like to see more of in the stock gallery?
I would like to see more scenes.
6What do you feel the relationship is between the stock community and the rest of dA?
I think that stock gallery is one of the most important thing in dA community. There is a lot of people who make their art using stock images. I.e.- the photomanpulators or painters, also a lot of people gets a lot of inspiration looking trough stock photos.
