I merged visable and put this layer on top of picture of man working...... added the usual blank layers set to color and painted in color..... went over the step joints with a color burn layer, blurred and adj. opacity...... that's it.....

Thanks Mark........ the only kuddo I've given myself is the fact that I even entered a picture after seeing yours where Pete was showing off his new legs....... that was great !!

Fine work Beth,
Doing a Maggie isn't easy.
I'm busy with women's hats.

Thank you, Matt....... it really wasn't easy for me...... I don't really "get" all of her humor ..... just the play on words part...... then there were the colors...... but it was good to try something different......... women's hats...... I can't wait to see them......
