How about a blaster button, that you can click to ignore somebody you don't like?

That way if you don't like somebody or thier avatar, you don't have to look at it.

I'm not big on censoring, but if it helps somebody else get through thier day, why not allow it on an individual basis?

good luck with that.
How are your pics turning out with what you have so far???
any particular troubles we can help with?

that is why I added "Schnapps" to the end!


will do a better shot later, need to get some icecream and make a "Butterscotch Sundae"....

I call him "B.S." for short.
My son just calls him "Butterscotch"

Nice find SmutjeUk

Me, if it was just for a short one off type shoot, I'd go as cheap as possible....


make buy or build a simple tube, then take an ac inverter ( I got lots layin around) and an yank a battery out of one of my motorcycles, or just use one of those ac/dc car starter battery paks we got layin around to power it up...

flourescent mechanic type worklights have the added benifit of being water resistant...

ordinary florescent tubes plugged in or lit with black lights work nice but are breakable...
what r u doin with it?

dollar stores bargain stores have light up lite sabres for a couple bucks this time of year for halloween.

right now it is down to shadows, lighting and placement.... the face is too bright compared to the subject...

your cut out needs a little work to straighten out the edges and smooth the curves.
you need second layer (preferably a shot of an actual porcelain mask) to layer under the edges of the mask to give it that 3-d edge... and shadows from the mask onto the subject mimicking the subjects light....

I cannot post it online but I did have some success layering skin over chrome for a battle damaged terminator shot I did for a client a couple years back.... it isn't impossible...

but the lighting on your mask looks softer than the light on your subject.... need to add some shadows to sell it.

may I also suggest get that 3d layer showing the edge of the mask and add a crack to it with a small chip near the edge to show the mask is fake, or are you going for a real face look?

not my image, just a link.
I like the one where the squirrel is about to hop in through the window, with peanut on the window sill

good point.

good point. My iphone gets used alot even alongside my d-slrs for geo tagging....
