I got this idea by watching one of the cold cases shows on TV. I know this entry can be improved a lot, I am just tired of thinking and my brain is just about to burst! So, I would like to have suggestions and comments to improve it. I hope this work is not to graphic or disturbing, if so... I apologize
UPDATE: Spelling corrected
UPDATE2: Bigger tag, changed color on feet.used a handwritten font... will work on the edges later... thank you (5 years and 3838 days ago)

Striving for realism, you really should have the tag hand written, I doubt if that type of tag would be computer generated.. but you never know.. if you had it hand wrtten. with a little pressure texture, it would aid to the realism.. life and death is never to graphic.. some times life is wasted on the living .. good luck.. and unique Idea
Spelling error :SUFFOCATION
Thank you for comment and suggestions GolemAura, will check label again, will check spelling...
Grim. String loop should be reasonably taut as gravity pulls down the (admittedly rather light) tag. I agree with GolemAura that I would expect the tag to be handwritten (but I have no experience in this area). If I wasn't aware of the source pic, I would not recognize these as baby feet. Something that made that clearer (e.g., bigger, adult-size tag overwhelming the baby feet with additional data on the tag of sex and age) would make this more dramatic.
Thank you Dan.... Will try to make the tag bigger, I am not sure about the handwritten tag, it is difficult to write over the tag, even with a small brush. Any suggestions about using a font that looks like handwritten text....?
Yes there are some realistic hand written fonts. I think you might also want to wash out some of the colour. I believe the bodies have more a clamy grey colour. [if thats a colour??] The shadow from the tag looks good, but i think it also makes the highlights and shadows on the other foot wrong. With the intensity of the light, you might want to add some very light fibre texture or similar to the tag? Just an idea.. GL.
Definitely an attention grabber...Wow...Best of Luck
Very well done, the only problem is the fact he was found 'inside a trash can' there should be a more creative reason i think, but either way, the effects is really nice and the feet don't just look mirrored, which improves the realism. Well done!
