But, I had to use the clone tool to repair some aspects of the car (e.g., the clear 1×1 round studs that had supported the ghost needed to be removed and the white surface of the hood restored), and some of the exterior windows and side panels peeked through gaps between the Ghostbusters (I used the clone tool and lasso tool to create the rear windows and side panels). Because the Ghostbusters are obscuring part of Ecto-1 in the original photo, I needed to arrange the composition so that they hid the back of the vehicle. Then, I cut out the ghost, Ecto-1, and four Ghostbusters and pasted each into its own independent layer and adjusted colors appropriately.

I smoothed out these fixes with the smudge tool. I used the lasso tool (creating irregular shapes instead of squares or circles helps with blending later) and clone tool to copy material over the sightseers in the front of the firehouse and to remove a light reflection on the road surface in front of the pedestrian walking line in the lower left. I adjusted the colors and reduced the shadows to help the firehouse pop in the center of the photo. I setup my work document in GIMP in the following way.įirst, I pasted the hook and ladder photo as the bottom-most layer.

Due to the time of day that the photo was taken, the front of the building is in shadow and there are sightseers in front of the firetruck door that need to be removed.

On the right above is a photo that I took of the Hook and Ladder Company 8 building in Manhattan. All of the elements that I needed are here, but I realized that I would have to break it down into parts to create the composite image–ghost, Ecto-1, Ray, Ego, Peter, and Winston. On the left is a photo that I took of the Ghostbusters LEGO 21108 set on my desk at City Tech. I started with these photos that I had taken in 2015: Thinking about the composite image of the Bandai 1/144 scale Millennium Falcon in space that I created using GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) led me to imagine creating a different composite of the LEGO 21108 Ghostbusters set from 2014 in front of the filming location of the Ghostbuster’s headquarters, Hook and Ladder Company 8 in Manhattan.
