1st attempt at Grunge (?NSFW?)

[DRATOM]

I took this shot a few years ago, but never really got it to where I wanted it. I thought I would try a little PS work on it and attempt a grunge layer. Let me know what you think!

Thanks for looking,

JD

Thanks Corry! I am not to sure how well I did at the grunge process and thought I would see what others thought. Thanks for letting me know.

Wow... if I had to describe any photo as "strong", this would be it!

I love it! The effect works perfectly. Great job!

Nice work, I like this. It almost feels like a painting.

pm63, LuckyStarPhotography, and Tiberius, I greatly appreciate your comments. When I get any feed back positive :thumbup: or negative :thumbdown: from my peers it helps me know if i am heading in the right direction. Thank you.

The grunge work along with the shot looks very good.

Thanks for looking unnecessary! Thanks for the comments too.

Hey, the effect is really cool although I think it might be a tad bit over-stated over the model. I would like to see just him a bit clearer/cleaner/sharper - might help the image "pop" a bit.

Thanks for the comments, I have been working with the image and trying to find a good mix of what you suggested. I'll post one up for you to see when I get it right.
