sorry Nator, tried to highlight it some.. but I kind of like the muddy blacks LOL, though I really appreciate your comment (High Res really is the best)

And he WOULD be hiding! Nice work, author, and I like his/her beady red eyes. Looks fine in hi-res.

Good blend!

Nice image finds, very effective and realistic!

Thanks !

Rolf Well, that's up close and personal, isn't it? Glad you got away. Thanks for the laugh.

Your fingers look a little too stretched out, but this is a fun image!

Agree with MossyB though I think this is very original !!

I think you should work a little more on the eyes to blend them more.

I would like to suggest that you place the texture layer over the man layer, then reduce the texture layer opacity. Then, using a mask, carefully erase around the eyes. Once that's done, you can increase the texture layer opacity. That will help you blend the eyes a little better. Hope this helps.

thanx, been away for a few days, got that done...

Looks better now. Nice job.
