Shoop that Conor Mcgregor!

I've found this one on reddit, not mine.

Inspired by this for those who missed it

He was obviously hoping Nate would shake his hand or something as a show of sportsmanship, like McGregor usually does at the post fight pressers, but instead Nate ignored him. That is what you are seeing mr psychoanalyst.

damn better than the original and definitely my version. You found the footage? cause the one I shooped that was Anderson and Fedor had some left other edging from their cropping work stuck in the same spot the entire length of the gif. I didn't really notice it till half way through my attempt and I bet the original artist did the same

II think it wasn't a handshake he was looking for, but just to make eye contact and nod in respect, but Nate just strolled past eyes up :)

The footage you are looking for.

From 20:50

I like that you removed that chunky hard edged thing by Nates elbow and knee. How the heck did it get there in the first place? I thought at first you were going for some sort of overlay texture thingy.

Slight improvement on Diaz's upper arm and eye lighting or am I seeing things? I do find it odd that you added green to Conor's face. Looks like he has been huffing paint. Were you trying to make him green because he is choking? I really really really love what you did with the pool noodles. Ace job on that. At first I thought the thing behind Diaz's ear was part of a pool noodle because it has some blue hues in it, but then I realized it was a joint and I lol'd. GREAT JOB on that shoop.

The chunky shit on the canvas was leftover shadow layer that I forgot to clean up. Usually I would clean that up early but I was a little blazed to realise.

His left shoulder was too bright so I desaturated it a little.
I was going to work the veins and colouring on Conor's forehead a bit but I got hungry so I threw a little green on there and called it a day.
Not sure why green, maybe something to do with leprechauns.... Your guess is a good as mine.

And of course, I needed to add a j bone behind the ear. Pre rolled post fight j.

I was going to paint the noodle arms originally but it was going to take too long and probably not look all that good so I just did a bit of manipulation

Feather or blur those lighting adjustment layers as needed. Only noticed it cause of the sharp edges on the mat and his knee area. If those were blurred/feathered, I wouldn't have noticed.

Nice work once again. I like the way you blended the noodles into his arm. You cloned that blue noodle stuff from about elbow to bicep? And you even left/made as elbow crease on his right arm which was a nice touch.

I appreciate your reply @bigwaverider

You do some golden work with the shoops. Always enjoy seeing them.

Agreed. And when Nate ignores him he tries to act like he wasn't ready to reach out. He should have understood this when he signed up to fight a Diaz.

He also shouldn't have been so blithely insulting and arrogant, because Nate baked him a nice humble pie.
