 For the record...I keep his hair in a mohawk normally...so it wasn't any big deal to paint his hair and eyebrows. He thoroughly enjoyed the lollipop.,...getting stuck into it after the photos.

He didn't really care about the pink background as much as he did about the tongue. I literally painted his tongue with food colouring. This meant he couldn't close his mouth during the shoot...and his words were..."it tastes f***** disgusting!!!!"

He specifically wore the blue singlet to match in with the rough look...and it is NOT inside out. That is how the Aussie blue singlet is....ain't that right men?

This image did go up for validation...for over 4 days. But it was validated in the end. That was a very nerve wracking time. I think SC must have just been snowed under with validations and whinging in the forums...LOL!!

Hahahahaha....for the ones who guessed that this was my image...there is a lollipop for your reward. The only problem is...ya gotta get it off my model!!!!!

Congratulations on your finish with this wonderful, tantalizingly evil ( at least in my " afraid of clowns " mind ) image. Great work.

Excellent job! This looks like a ribbon winner. Is that frosting in the hair and eyebrows or PP work? Intense look on the face. One nitpik is the blue tank top doesn't go along with the rest of the picture. Maybe that is supposed to go along with the mean looking man, but I'm thinking something more candy looking would be better. The more I look at it the more I like it. 9

This photo is hilarious. Love what you have done with the color on the tongue. I'm sure that no one is going to try and steal his candy lol.

Very scary but also excellent shot! I love the colors and the richness you brought out with the editing. I would have positioned him to the left though but doesn't matter a lot.

Very creative idea...but, you have some shadowing behind the subject, there is blue on the tongue but not on the sucker.

oh boy...really don't know what to think of this. I really don't like tongues sticking out. came across two other photo's with it as well. they just put me off my appetite. nice touch with the hair, i like the bg color and the editing of the eyes.

Disturbing image! But good technically. Good composition. So why do i react negatively? Maybe a bit over processed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/09/2007 09:27:58 PM
My goodness. That is some weird hair, and the colour on the tongue are donwright scary. And all of it on a bright pink background. Quite a daring entry in some ways.
