Great entry!I love her eyes!

Haha, we all have to work with things we hate. Wonderful image... very mystical, i agree about the eyes, and that hair is extremely detailed! Good luck!!

Edit: Nice to have you back, author

cool, how did you do it with only using 3 tools

rjapzdesign: well dodge and burning on a grey background is very simillar to painting in black and white, only HARDER, because it effects what you did before instead of painting over it, the hardest part was just using one layer, which I hope I never have to try again!

awsome work author. I love your face and hair structure.
