Thought on this image?

[tibrunner]

I like it, but at the same time I think the bra strap is a potential distraction...any others agree/disagree/ other input?





Was going for a "zombie-esk" style
...looks more like a really bad sun burn lol

I actually didn't notice the strap initially. Clone it out if you're ocncerned about it, though.

If enough people do not see them as a distraction, I would prefer to keep them in. Idk I may be being over critical. So what are your thoughts of the over all image?

 

[deeky]

Bra strap? I'm not into the whole zombie thing, so for me that absolutely ruins a potentially beautiful girl, bra straps aside. If you want the zombie look, I think the chest/shoulders treatment is close, but the face isn't there. I think you are right about a sunburn, and then too much makeup trying to cover it.

The bra doesn't bother me. What does is that the "zombie make-up" if you did this is PS, I would recommend you go with a dark grey/dark green mix to give that "i just came out of the ground" look instead of the red. And if you are going for Zombie, get rid of the skin softening, actually make it look more harsh, dont forget to put some of that green/grey in her hair too and trash that eyeball. Its too nice for a zombie. Scar it and i would change her eye color to glow green or to black and white...probably over-all kick up the contrast more too.

edit: But all in this dark cloud i cast over this thread you have given me inspiration to take that Fireball self portrait and do an end of the world zombie edit. Or if i can have barrow your raw/jpg origional i'll play with it

The longer I compare the two, I prefer the original even more.

Thank you both for your comments, oh and just a side note she was not wearing any makeup and had very pale somewhat smooth completion- these two images are entirely photoshopped.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO This is a good start, that would save me a lot of time, can i barrow that picture?

Could have had more fun with it but it's getting late
I'd still ask her to spend the night.

 

[duhast]

Yeah, of the 2, the 2nd is much creepier to me. The sunburn gives way to a threat of malice. Me likee....

Haha very nice, I just noticed there were more replies to the thread.

As for spending the night- she still has another year or so before that would be considered.."legal."
