Like this very much. Not so much the blood splatters though, they look out of place.

See, I knew someone would notice

The bloodspatter is added afterwards in photoshop (that's the only thing I did, except of course color & contrast)

I wasn't too happy with them either (I used the same bloody texture on "on the operating table" where it looked much more realistic) but everyone kept telling me "the blood looks fine! upload it already!"

I still have the ps-file, that's how unsure I am about the end result

Altough, the image doesn't look quite as "appealing" without the spatter *sigh*

I have a simular image (realise) in my gallery. That one doesn't have blood spatter. It has raindrops on a window ^_^ (yes, those were real... actually, I sprayed the windows myself, people were looking "wtf")

Haha!! I know the feeling! I remember having someone hold a hose on a balcony while I stood with an umbrella photographing a girl in the "rain".

Could tell the bloodsplatter was added afterwards, and even though the other image had distortion (raindrops), I think the blood takes it away from "meaningful photos with meaningful things writting on them", and turns it more into photomanipulation/horror.

You could always, instead of using brushes, use real fake blood. Or even get him to put his fingers in some dirt, to make his hands have the same grungy effect the blood creates.

Either way, I think this is a really great concept and the lines are really capturing. The Realise one hell made my head implode lol.

I guess you forgot to videotape that implosion?

hmmm, dirt! thanks for the advice I'll try to rework it with a dirty texture instead of a bloody one.

We're planning a new shoot (me & the model) where we're going to use real blood I need a real heart to make it work and he suggested to use real blood too gotta love models like that!

Not as good as the last one, the last one had effects and emotions! For me, this is just a guy who has some text and blood on his hands! However, it's a great shot!

Again, another beautifully worded piece and very expressive. The blood also adds to the effect but gotta ask, whats the brush for the it?

*giggle*

That means I did a good job

Me & the same model are planning a shoot with real blood tough. Just need to find a location where I can afford to work messy like that
