Hey LMAC guys 😃 I promised my mentor @agmoore that I'll take part in this week's [LMAC gallery's contest](https://peakd.com/hive-174695/@lmac/lets-make-a-collage-a-contest-for-all-creatives-on-hive-round-197-45-hive-in-the-prize-pool). So after I took a quick look at the post on my feed, then I looked at @shaka's template photo ![3DLAmCsuTe3ba2VJAE1ZhN2oVhekeqoshg9DUnSyUd2Cnt4YtUMpZp3sK6eorvaUNMx1DesDnsMa8bNTVW9FLHUiXF1bj4yvemL6Vb1XpzqPXDrRJ2D66MatqEhdfTGL9WkwCzfFMMEeQU15aRjWe4Tbw6wgPrW.jpeg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/seki1/EpLfTYTZcrBqQZcvv94QrduJsHHpQAuf9t8nUyMHfak2jDjZD7jm1LeQUKcrjmhzDyX.jpeg) I thought to myself. > Looks like a great place for wildlife, a resort of some kind? *** Coincidentally, the next post was a post about the popular new game on hive @holozing. Then the idea began forming.... ![untitled.gif](https://media.tenor.com/V0jgY9JzulMAAAAC/vaporwave-chillwave.gif) And the idea popped. ![untitled.gif](https://media.tenor.com/7HUogy7rXs4AAAAC/feel-me-think-about-it.gif) A Holozing Creature Capture ![Untitled design_20240204_000100_0000.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/seki1/Eo46J1eH1nhs2RubxVe44rr6gdoR76VJpNqjTuBv7zquq3DaQx7aqm67rQASmxuqnBo.png) *** Holozing is a creature capturing game (something like Pokemon). The game was made by @acidyo and the aim is to capture creatures and use them to battle or capture other creatures. *** Like most of my other collages, making this one was pretty easy, I just needed to gather the right materials. - **The night Sky** - I believe it would be easier and more appropriate to go hunting for creatures in the night. - **Creatures** - It can't be a Holozing Creature Capture without the Holozing creatures itself. - **Bushes**- Something the water whale can hide behind as she's a shy one _{(shyness decided by me for this collage. I don't really know her temperament 😂)} - **Man with backpack** - The Backpack just gives him a kind of outdoorsy vibes😂 *** ### Procedure *** I forgot to take screenshots of my process of creating this so I'll just have to draw a mental image of it for you readers. > So sorry for the inconvenience, y'all would actually have to read😭 Thankfully, it was pretty easy to make. I first removed the background from all the pictures I collected, including @shaka's template picture. Then I started stacking them untop each other. 1. The night sky first. 2. Then the template picture, whose original sky had been removed. 3. I then edited the template picture, reducing it's brightness and making it look more cool so it can be seen as nighttime. 4. I began placing the #holozing creatures at specific places while editing them too so they can blend in a bit to those places. 5. Since it's nighttime, instead of reducing the brightness of the firewolf, I did the exact opposite and edited him so his fire could shine brightly. I also kind of wanted it to be a sign of aggression to the man who wanted to capture him. 6. Lastly is the captor, with his bag, surveying the creatures now within his reach. ## Would he get them? ### Nobody knows... ![EoEo5nvDHnUht8Gw4ryE7E9nS23HoHWmGygWc5fXjaGo3xSgiSRM3P8oRKvot13tG7P.webp](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/seki1/EoEjKvABBjsvH2ZREKrtzRoQZ8ywRcjHtb5BJHvFYqW9vgfgY4brv1LhNaMP1KHiKmz.webp) **SOURCES** - _{[Man with a backpack was Contributed to the #LIL by @raj808.](http://lmac.gallery/lil-gallery-image/7510)} - _{[Night sky was Contributed to the #LIL by @kimikimi.](http://lmac.gallery/lil-gallery-image/9940)} - _{[Bush was Contributed to the #LIL by @alex2alex.](http://lmac.gallery/lil-gallery-image/11787)} - _{All Holozing Creatures images was gotten from the [Holozing Community](https://peakd.com/hive-131131)} - _{Picture Editor app used was Canva} ![20230709_110037_0000.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/seki1/23yJAHsT9WMcpCTSTe4RVhtQEYCWgvYkP3Lu6JdTaAaYicZBjtRVV8k83yvtUcJHUYv34.png) _{My [Instagram](https://instagram.com/seki_hub?igshid=ZGUzMzM3NWJiOQ==) page.}
