Description Embrace It


Full view please.


I worked on this for a long time. Then I messed up when I saved it... And had to start almost all over. Which now it actually looks better...but still. So I put a lot of work into this. And for me, I am quite proud of it.


I hope the darkness is not too dark. I lightened it up quite a bit cause some ppl told me it was. I can't tell cause my video card is still messed up. It shouldn't be too dark now. Hope it's not (it is darkness, so it should be some).


I used a brush this time from Thank you to her ^^


Comments, suggestions, ideas, constructive crit are all welcome.

Enjoy.

I almost like all of your fantasy photo manipulations, but in all of them you should work more with your face...

wow that's really well done,
you know whats a good technique (but would only work well if you had a tripod or something like it), would be to pose keep the camera fixed and change and pose again,
i can tell by the setting sun that your good side wasn't there , but by doing this you don't need to alter the photo so much, except if it takes long to change... then you would have problems with lightning and shade,
i did something similar but overdid my evil side lol...
once again, awesome picture its real trippy

hmmm it's been a really long time since I've done it. But most of the dark stuff was set on multiply blending. I also added a purple glow around it to help bring it out. I hope that at least helps a little XD

interesting, im guessing you used photoshop? and by the looks of it you either had to use severeral photos of you or had 2 look alikes. nonetheless, i really like it! great job and all, i wouldn't manage to do something like this, i'd end up tossing the computer across the room half way through.
