Photo Manipulation

Hey, I was bored, so i had a go at a bit of photo manipulation.

I started with this:

And this is the SEMI-Final peice:

You can't see all the detail in that one though, so [url=\"http://razor.digiwire.org/facelarge.jpg\"]Click Here[/url] for a slightly larger copy.

Any ideas on how I could improve it ?
Anything you think I should remove / add / change ?

Thanks, Razor.

It looks good, razor. I saw a ps brush somewhere that does runny mascara LOL....you could add that; not sure which version of ps it works on though, might only be CS. You and Shane (endophyte) will get along great, he likes doing manipulations as well.

Sorry if its a bit graphical, but 'gore' is the theme of these pictures.

Looks good razor <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> I\'m sure Shane will have some suggestions for you when he sees it.

One thing though...remember this is a family rated community <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... /smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

Do i ever? Lol - its awesome for a beginner i must admit, what i could suggest is firstly going over the face with your dodge tool, to make the skin pale, then a little sponge over to give it a grey/dead look, you\'ve obviously mastered the burn tool which is good, i swear by the burn tool!
Your blood looks just as good, lol. As for messy makeup and stuff, [url=\"http://www.prettybrush.cjb.com\"]here[/url] is where you\'ll find some awesome brushes. Ohh edit; theres another easy way to make runny mascara type, all i did was make a new layer over top, got my painbrush with i think soft round, and followd under the eye, then changed the layer (i cant remember what to, overlay i think) and then got my smudge tool and tried different sized brushes, most of the ones ive done are in my gallery, so check them out <img src=\'http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/s ... igwink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\';)\' />

Its looking good, keep with it. Manipulations are cool, but can be hard work, and sometimes very hard to pull off. Ive only ever done three but Im looking to do some more. Check out the Manipulations section in my album to see some of my work and maybe get some ideas.

I decided to have a go at manipulating your ithe image, so here it is. Remember, manips dont have to be just making things look bloody, which is great and I like doing myself, but maybe try taking things out or adding them in, like I have in this one. If you do, post it here, Id like to have a look.
