Description
You guys must be tired of seeing my face over and over again in my photomanipulations, hehe. But the thing is, once I get an idea, it's pretty damn impossible to find a stock image that is EXACTLY what I need. So you'll have to do with me! Now as a cyborg - taking over your local neighbourhood, and generally messing with your head.I apologize for the watermark, but I don't like the idea of people stealing my face. It's already happened with my Kitty Hood pictures, or so I've been told.
This barely even looks like me anymore, but regardless of that, please keep pervy comments to yourself.
---
Media: Photo taken by me, of myself, Photoshop 8.0 and a Wacom Tablet.
Music listened to: "Take Me Into Your Skin" by Trentemoller. Fitting song, now that I think of it. Go listen to it! It's the most soothing music I've heard in a long time.
Time taken: Too long. x) But I'm iffy about details, so it always takes longer than it should. I also put a lot of general painting in this as usual.
Stock used:
Connections by ~Pax-Caryatid
Down the Tubes by ~neubie
Gears by ~stocked
Last but not least, a big thank you to the stock artists that make life easier for the rest of us.
Edit: Added more skin to the neck area.

really nice
i'm new to photoshop, but really want to make wires come out of an arm. How did you make the wires look as if they are going into the body?
please help

I shaded with the brush tool and a light colour around the wires to make it look like they are pushing the skin aside. There's really no magic photoshop trick to how I did it. Just basic cg'ing.

Thanks!

Cado In reply to MinimalMan [2007-12-28 11:42:39 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, he's great. Getting a bit too "pop" these days for my tastes though. His music is being used in so many commercials now, it's sad.

Hehe. Nogle folk tager det vel bare som narcissisme, men det mΓ₯ de om.
Tak!

tror 9 ud af 10 kunstnere er narcissister, sΓ₯ visse vasse..
nogle fede billeder i dit galleri udover det :]

Hah, det er sikkert sandt nok. Lidt deltids-narcissisme kan godt vΓ¦re en god ting. Bare man minder sig selv om at der ogsΓ₯ er andre mennesker pΓ₯ planeten, en gang imelllem.

Well, you have to start somewhere. Makeup is a good start. Just keep challenging yourself and don't give up. Believe me, all my photomanips looks like utter crap in 70% of the process. They don't start showing promise until the very end. X:
