July 2019 SMF Challenge - Landscape/NOT Seascape Design

[Mobjack Bay]

I'm new to the forum, so I couldn't enter, but I have been wanting to try a landscape soap for some time. I used a combination of soap sculpting, ITP swirl and an embed. I am so impressed by the entries!

Great job! I love the pine tree. Did you sculpt it?

Thank you for sharing - your landscape is beautiful!

Just a reminder to vote if you haven't already. There are still a couple of people who haven't voted and it's very close!

 

[Primrose]

I was going to redo mine, but ran out of time, so y'all are stuck with the one I entered LOL
I'll be gone during the voting, so won't get to vote. But yes, all of them are very well done.

Just in case you didn't see this comment earlier dibbles

Yes, I sculpted it, was a bit difficult to get a good contrast. I would make it bigger next time.

@Primrose, thank you. I did see it and contacted her to let her know she could PM her votes to me and I would count them if there were no entries after she sent her picks. She thought she’d be able to vote on Saturday.

I was really impressed with your soap like everyone else! All the practice hours paid off! Very impressive

 

[user 29214]

Thanks for the explanation @earlene ! I'll try that next time
And thanks for the kind words @Mobjack Bay and @dibbles I was really happy with the soap until I started taking pictures, all of a sudden I started seeing all the flaws and it took me almost an entire day to take a picture I was ok with using as an entry pic I know it's just because I made it that I see all the flaws, but I hate it when that happens!
Also, @Mobjack Bay , I showed the entry thread to my mom and she really liked your soap, so you get her compliments

I really liked your entry, I was scrolling through the pictures and I had to stop and come back to yours, the skater really made it connect to the inspiration photo, all of it was spot on!
