Description well this pretty much sums up the way I've been feeling lately.
Right now, it's so hard to even smile.
I feel so stuck, so depressed & I can't explain it.
Anyway, I suppose painting fake blood on a photograph is better than real blood on my own arm right at this moment...

I spent hours & hours on this trying to get it perfect, & I know that it's far from that. The blood doesn't look good. I couldn't burn it like I normally do to make it look realistic because I'd desaturated the arm a lot to make it so pale. sorry. I also had trouble finding good brushes for cuts & blood, so if anyone knows of any (preferably for PSP), I'd appreciate it

The original stock photo can be seen here & is by the beautiful
Many various brushes were used & I can't remember whose were whose, if you spot yours, let me know & I'll credit you.

manipulated with psp & ps

Thats brilliant and she really is beautiful!

I think you got the blood just right- it adds to the whole image it being the vibrant red- especially with it being such pale skin with the red on her top and in her hair! I think it looks great.

But i'm sorry you're feeling so down and depressed- painting the blood on the picture is definitely a good and healthy way to release some of it

actually, i think the blood looks fine, personally. sometimes my blood gets bright like that, and persons with high white blood cell count have very bright blood. so don't worry about it ^.^i like it
