the man can't believe what i'll do to the sprog in the name of art (art? maybe?) most of it is actually legal in advanced, except for the pattern overlays and cloning out a dandelion.

Freaky shot. This is a perfect promotional piece for either a movie/book. I mean that in a good way. Love what you did in processing.

This is pretty creepy, Christian :-) Would have been very cool for the nighmare challenge. Actually very artistic, as usual.

Nice color effect... but looks more like The omen

nice reference, captures the etherealness (if it's not a word it should be) of the original, however the eyes look a bit overdone for me :-(

I like the effects placed on this photo. I really like the way the eyes look. They give the photo the look it needs to pull it off.

Guess there is a secret out there you have to know to understand this image. I personally don't care for it, the colours just don't seem to fit right for me, and just doesn't seem all that creative for sci-fi, mostly it looks like a half blind kid (half blind because the film over the single eye).

I like the choice of book and your rendition is rather good too. 8.

I don't really like this. The yellow is overbearing.
