Gestalt is an image that makes 2 images in one, it could made out of someone's initials, face, animals and it could make something out of it.

 ROUGHS

In this part, I redrew my 2 best rough gestalt images. One was a boxing glove with my 3 initials  GHC). The 2nd is a badge with my 2 initials (GC).

 

In the final comprehensive, I smoothed and edited my final gestalt and created my initials better so it would look professional.

Raster RGB and Indexed increased resolution quality comparison

RGB

In this assignment, there 2 Sony logos, one is RGB and the other is indexed color. The RGB image has straight curved lines, it's a little blurry and has some quality. 

The second image is smudged, has static lines has good quality but it needs some fixing.

 

Indexed
