you're toxic, i'm slipping under


ARGH that song has been stuck in my head since forever.

So, FINALLY, it's done! I started this about the time of VFC day, and amazingly enough, the skin didn't take all that long to do; maybe two hours or so. The hair was SUICIDE, though; I first attempted to do every since strand and tried to make it look exactly like the picture, but it was taking too long, so I kind of ignored the vexel for a while. I opened it up again today, and thought, "Well.. it's not like they'll kill me if it doesn't look EXACTLY like it.", plus, I actually realized I was working in Photoshop and that you can basically do anything on it (Duh.) So I just did a patch of hair, and some cool photoshopping stuff, and voila! It's done!

It's Heidi Klum, by the way :). Oh, and it's only 40% of the original; it was HUGE!

Aww, thank you!

Yup, I stroke pathed most of it, but there was WAY too much, so I started to improvise and just duplicated parts and tweaked them a little >_>.

Only thing I'd say is the grey at the top isn't as dark as the hair so it doesn't blend in as well as it should but other than that this is a really amazing piece of work. Congratulations.

The bright whiter part is the top of her chest; her head if kind of bent down? I hope that clears it up some x_x.
