 Decided Pinhead from Hellraiser would be good for this challenge as his lust for painful pleasures knows no bounds lol..

Background is a standard black cotton backdrop. The model is an 18" motion activated figure my girlfriend owns and the lighting was provided using a flshgun with red gel for the backlighting and a flashgun at foreground with a green gel for lighting up his face and front.. creating a nice mix i found.. hope you like it :) .. It was fun shooting with Pinhead, he took direction really well for a cenobite hehe

Editing in Corel Paint shop photo pro X3: cropped, adjusted brightness and contrast using levels, denoised with topaz denoise 4, sharpened, resized for challenge and re-sharpened a little.

good idea and some hard work. Maybe a little fill light might have made the foreground more visible...

Great setup. The mist and red/green light are dead on.

Pinhead FTW!

nice shot, my only critique is I'd rather he not be so centered by cropping more of the black on the left side.
