Elegance & Class
So, I originally started this August 13th because I figured my internet would be out for the rest of the week (turned out that it was just a disconnection for few hours) and I just finished it (I had a ton of schoolwork inbetween).

The vexel is of Rachel McAdams, who I am infatuated with lol. I decided to try something different with color, so I edited the original picture to the way I liked it. I personally think this *is* my best vexel to date =) The hair & headband is my favorite part. The earring is... horrible because I was highly annoyed by it lol. The dress was originally supposed to be the same color as the background, giving the illusion that it's there but blended into the background, but it looked weird so I added minimal shading.

If you'd like to view the full size, it is here

*Edit* To the person who asked, yes - it was done with the pen tool (Adobe PS CS2)

*Edit 2.5* Thanks for the positive feedback ^_^ *blushes* // Shaz is making me giggle like a schoolgirl =D Here's the original image

+ And for Corrine, here's the edited version of that image

Clearly your best vexel! I see absolutely NOTHING wrong with the earrings!!! They are probably my favourite part of the vexel... haha weird.

The hair is beautiful, her lips are done beautifully... wow you also did a very nice job on her teeth!! Even her eyebrows are perfect :P

Haha, before I knew it was you... I was going to comment with "Wow, I'm working on a Rachel McAdams vexel too!".

---
haha i swear i keep coming back to this thread just to see if shaz has made a new comment!

---
Oh my gosh! It's totally better than the original... and that's saying A LOT since Rachel Mcadams is soooo pretty! You chose an interesting photo to vexel IMO, because i usually don't like working with candid shots :(

And even after seeing the original, I still think the earrings are awesumzzz!

Do you by any chance have the photo you edited? I'm curious and I want to see it! K thanks.

lol and Shaz is crazy. eight comments and counting! on a roll baby.

corr's fine... lol...

sweet thanks :D

i wished this favourite list would get longer...

edit: SWEET I CAN EDIT COMMENTS NOW

WOW - I adore to Annette... this _is_ your best work... I love it so much. The shading, the hair - oh my - amazing! You have truely out done yourself!

---
Damn... I need to comment again on this - it's just too beautiful not to have a shit load of comments by now!

---
Leaving you another comment to say - I came back to look at it and it is just as amazing when I saw it before.

---
WOW... just as amazing on the 4th view... damn it's hot shit <3

---
Damn right I am coming back to this thread... Annette... it's a shit vexel... as in HOT SHIT! Damn, I wish I could vexel like that!

---
Damn I can't favourite this again... I wish there was a double favourite list - then this would be on both lists *nods*

---
Corr - can I call you Corr cos it is so much easier to type out... anyway, Corr... dude, can you not SEE the awesomeness (I would never use that word, just thought it was fitting with the Mean Girls connection) - forgot I was talking about - yeah awesomeness of this vexel?

And I forgot to comment on how fabulous the earring is.

Annette... whats the orignal image like?

---
On a serious note here, you giggling like a school girl is going to make you shake when you create your next master piece.

Moving on... I think yours is better than the original truth be told... I prefer the clothes and what is with that dodgy coloured top she is wearing on the original? Damn - can someone call in the guys from Queer Eye please?

Anyway - I am really not just saying it, but your vexel is much better than the original image... something which I think is hard to achieve *applauds*

---
I actually fancy trying to do a vexel in this style... as I said to you before, I haven't vexelled this weekend and I like this style... what did you do the edited version? (nearly wrote edited virgin there)

---
Wow - I have like never seen this vexel before... but OMG - it is amazing! I can't believe it's taken me _this_ long to find this vexel - wow! ;)

---
*faints*
*jaw hits floor*
*tongue rolls out*
*hind leg starts kicking*
Damn that is one amazing vexel!

---
Even viewing this vexel at work - it's still damn amazing!

The question is... when will Shaz stop commenting ;) hehe

---
Haven't commented on this for a while... bet ya thought I had lost interest in it? WELL... you're wrong!

It's still just as stunning <3

It's absolutely gorgeous. Her mouth looks weird, but that's how it really is in the picture, so there's no fault to you for that.

I also have a dangerous infatuation with Rachel lol. This vexel looks very elegant, I love the coloring. I don't know what nonsense you're talking about the earrings because I think they look wonderful. My favorite part is the hair and the headband.
