We took the original picture off the coin by using the Clone Stamp Tool and painting over the design
As the painting was taking a while to do, once we had done a fair amount of cloning, we used the Lasso Tool, to select a particular part of the clone.
We then copied the part that we selected and pasted it several times until it filled the whole coin and then looked like this.
Once we had imported the cow onto the coin, we used the Elliptical Marqee Tool to put a circle around the coin, just to remove the rough edges and make it look smoother.
However, we accidentally cut off some of the cow's ear whilst using the Magic Pencil Tool, so we had to start again...
This is what the coin looked like, once we imported the improved cow's head
The coin still didn't look real, so we had to emboss the cow layer. However the Emboss tool made the head look silver, so we made an extra layer, and made it a transparent gold colour, to blend in the colour of the cow into the gold coin.
This was the original layout of the print advert, however leaving the background white didn't follow the codes and conventions of a BBC1 newspaper advert.
We liked this layout, but we didn't like the gold boxes around the text, as it took the attention away from the image.
Here are many of the other print advert layouts we decided we could choose from.
We then agreed on this :
