Nice lighting work! Extra points for gluing that many tacks to your face.

Some of you people are too obsessed/determined/committed. Really :)

Bet you don't get to kiss many girls with a head like that?? :-) Great shot, the effort was well worth it.

A second image derivative of another in this challenge and this reviewer cannot express enough how distasteful this twice viewed genre is personally. Having said that, it is technically perfect and from an artistic standpoint, effective with a lot of impact. While the image may be personally repugnant, it does deserve a change in rating from a six to a nine for it's technical perfection.

THAT is a lot of work. What a patient subject. Very creepy and well lit. There is a greenish tinge to the entire shot which I find detracting, but overall a wonderful entry.

Very cool, what did you use to stick them to you? I tried something like this last night using eyelash glue but my tacks (pushpins) were too heavy for it to work. Well done.

I immediately thought of Owen Wilson. LOL Great trouble you went to for this shot. :~)
