Swordicorn

          The hybrid animal I made was a Swordicorn (a swordfish and a unicorn) because they both have sharp protrusions from their faces and it created something beautiful but horrifying.  I layered the swordfish on top of the unicorn and erased everything from the swordfish but its face.  I then softened the edges of the fish head with the smudge tool.  I used the clone stamp tool to bring the blue fish-y texture to the unicorns neck and ears, and to bring the unicorn's hair texture to the top of the swordfish.  To do so, I dropped the opacity down to between 10% and 40%.  From this project, I learned that photoshop is extremely frustrating and textures are overrated, even if the end product looks cool.  If I were to do something different with this project, I would've chosen things with closer color palettes.
