I couldn't decide witch one was better so i posted both of them

I like it! I like the first 1 best (the grainy look tops it off well.)

It reminds me of the movie Quarintine.

thanks tstand, yeah i was going for that horror film look.

agree, i like the first one better, too

Yes, I agree. I like the first one with the texture. It gives the piece a more mysterious feel.

I kind of did a gothika thing with a photo once. -rummages around website-...Here it is!



obviously I recommend looking at the larger preview and tutorial on my blog.

Did you do similar methods to what I did with this edit, or are we lightyears apart?

I didn't do the eyes and i did my shadows afterword and i used g'mic to do the film lines other then that yeah the methods are almost the same.
