How do you do a Panorama without the buildings looking stretched out?
^^Its all in the wrists Max^^ :Colorz_Grey_PDT_16:
I resize me pics height and the buildings go stretched out Is what I mean.
My wrist skills are In tune.:Colorz_Grey_PDT_16:

My wrist skills are In tune.:Colorz_Grey_PDT_16:
oh, when resizing there should be an option to 'constrain proportions', click that.
That restricts how much I want to size It and changes It to set size I don't want.
I change the height to say 374 and I keep the width to 2048, then I click on constrain and It puts the width back to the original size.

ChrisGeorge 04-04-2007, 07:24 PM More spiffing pics, Kev! Those panoramic shots are splendid. As a matter of interest in the pic of the old airport, I wonder if by any chance the hangar at left might have been built to house airships? It might not be tall enough to have done so although the design at the apex of the hangar kind of reminds me of the nose of an airship which kind of brings that notion to mind. I have seen such hangars for airships near Bedford when I visited a friend there. I am sure ScouserDave, living down that way, can confirm the hangars I mean, maybe even come up with a pic or two. Thanks in advance, Dave. :PDT11

IT IS the painting every Liverpudlian and lover of Liverpool will want to see, a massive view of the city on a canvas 16ft wide and 8ft tall.
With much of the work complete, artist Ben Johnson opened his studio in the Hammersmith area of London for a first public view of the painting.
It is a breathtaking piece with every building over five square miles recreated in meticulous detail together with a horizon stretching to the hills beyond.
The painting even captured the praise of studio visitor Anne Robinson of The Weakest Link. “It is quite magical,” beamed the Liverpool-born presenter in a change from her television image, hardly able to take her eyes from the canvas.
The work – titled The Liverpool Cityscape – is a £500,000 commission from National Museums Liverpool with financial help from a number of sponsors.
Among those was Brookside creator Phil Redmond and deputy chairman of the Culture Company who personally donated what he describes as “a substantial amount”.
He was delighted with the work, which he said would be one of the legacies of Liverpool’s year as European Capital of Culture. “It is a very special piece,” he said.
“It also reveals Liverpool’s global position with so many buildings like the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine involved with events outside of the city.”
For Llandudno-born artist Ben Johnson, the painting has taken three years of his life.
Ben Johnson with his Liverpool painting
“I have done nothing else except this painting.
“I have also had six assistants with me so you could say this painting has taken 18 years to complete.”
He had already painted similar but smaller panoramic paintings of Jerusalem, Zurich and Hong Kong. The Liverpool cityscape is his largest commission yet, and he accepted it only on the condition that it would be given to the people of Liverpool.
After going on display in the Walker Art Gallery next year, it will finally be on permanent exhibition in the new Museum of Liverpool.
Johnson, a dapper 61-year-old, has had his Hammersmith studio for the last ten years. He converted it from a derelict building and fellow artist Sir Peter Blake – another visitor – created his own studio at the same time next door.
The studio itself is amazingly neat and tidy: “I like to be organised,” he says.
Although he knew Liverpool from childhood days in North Wales and later studying in Chester, he did visit Liverpool again with his wife and assistant, Sheila, before accepting the commission.
“I wanted to know if we really wanted to spend three years of our lives working on this city,” he explains. The answer was a resounding yes.
To create his special panoramic view, he took photographs of every building, a process which continues. Drawings were then made and stencils created to spray the acrylic paint on to the canvas. It is very time-consuming work.
The completed painting will be on display at the Walker from May 24 to November 2.

Howie 01-13-2008, 06:48 AM The wider view: Liverpool City as you've never seen it before in the most detailed landscape picture ever painted
Last updated at 00:30am on 13th January 2008
This is the most detailed landscape picture ever painted - and it has taken artist Ben Johnson and his team 24,000 hours of painstaking work over three years so far, with another eight weeks to go until it is finished.
Called Liverpool Cityscape 2008, it measures 16ft by 8ft, takes in five square miles of the city from a vantage point 1,500ft above the River Mersey, and is entirely spray-painted.
To make sure the landscape is as accurate as possible, Ben took 3,000 reference photographs and asked for input from architects, historians and local people.
http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/01_02/Pool5MS0801_468x623.jpg
The landscape picture will be finished in front of a live audience in the city's Walker Art Gallery
He then reconstructed the buildings on a computer.
The details are downloaded on to a memory stick, which is placed in a special machine that cuts the stencils for each part of a building out of huge sheets of plastic.
The cutting process takes anything from an hour to 48 hours depending on the size and intricacy of the building.
http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2008/01_02/PoolMS0801_468x299.jpg
The painting measures 16ft by 8ft and takes in five square miles of Liverpool city
from a vantage point 1,500ft above the River Mersey
It will take 14 days to cut the stencils for the River Mersey. Each is then held in exactly the right position before being sprayed over.
Ben, 60, says: "I work with a team of six highly talented studio assistants. I couldn't do it without them."
The team are using 20,000 plastic stencils, a different one for every part of each building, to ensure ultimate accuracy.

It is the most detailed landscape picture ever painted and is to be completed in eight weeks time
Ben, whose studio is in Hammersmith, West London, will take up residency at the city's Walker Art Gallery to finish the Liverpool Cityscape in front of a live audience from January 28 to March 7.
"My favourite part will be when the Liverpudlians themselves can see it," he says.
"I deliberately left out people from the painting because I want them to embrace it."

so i guess its open to all, I for one will be going :PDT_Piratz_26:
BBC Liverpool:
Artist Ben Johnson is completing his painting of Liverpool's Cityscape in front of a live audience.
He takes up his position as artist-in-residence at the Walker Art Gallery from 28 January to 7 March.
The internationally-renowned artist has been working on "The Liverpool Cityscape" for over three years.
The piece has been commissioned for the city's reign as European Capital of Culture and stands 8ft (2.4m) by 16ft (4.8m), his largest piece to date.
Permanent display
From a vantage point high above the River Mersey, the painting features over a thousand buildings including the two cathedral.
By using detailed architectural drawings the panorama includes the unfinished Museum of Liverpool on the waterfront and the Liverpool One development.
Visitors can watch the artist and his assistants as they add the finishing touches with hundreds of hand-mixed colours and spray-guns.
The finished painting will be on display at the Walker Art Gallery alongside Johnson's other world cities series, including images of Zurich, Hong Kong and Chicago.
The painting will eventually be on permanent display at the Museum of Liverpool when the building is completed in 2010.

IT FEATURES more than 1,000 Liverpool buildings and is the most ambitious painting of Liverpool ever attempted.
Ben Johnson’s stunning Liverpool Cityscape arrived at the Walker art gallery today.
But the 8ft by 16ft painting is still not quite finished.
Now people can see the artist at work as he sets up his studio in the William Brown Street gallery and spends the next six weeks completing the epic work.
It will go on show from May 24 to November 2 at the gallery and eventually on permanent display at the new Museum of Liverpool.

shoney 01-29-2008, 10:30 AM very interesting, a lot of painstaking work etc.. but given the option i'd rather see a detailed pic of the city today as its up to date and more lifelike than any model as a city breathes and changes daily ie the pics from gregs dad, mscousedave etc... however i take my hat off to them for their labouriosly work and to those people who are paying them for it they must be very dedicated

Cathedral is favourite in Ben Johnson Cityscape painting
Feb 14 2008 by Catherine Jones, Liverpool Echo
LIVERPOOL cathedral is the most loved building on an epic new painting of the city.
One in five visitors who took part in a Walker art gallery poll chose the cathedral as their favourite structure on artist Ben Johnson’s Liverpool Cityscape.
The cathedral won 20% of the vote, the Liver Building 17%, and St George’s hall 12%.
The Metropolitan Cathedral was fourth.
Ben Johnson said: “What’s been most evident from visitors’ responses is the enthusiasm and love felt for the city.”
Other favourite buildings ranged from St John’s beacon to the “streaky bacon” former White Star Line headquarters, the Pilgrim and Philharmonic pubs, the bombed out church, Lime Street station and even people’s homes.
Ben Johnson is finishing the painting in public in a specially-created studio at the William Brown Street gallery between now and March 7.
The painting was commissioned by National Museums Liverpool with Liverpool Culture Company and Phil and Alexis Redmond.
