This is a fun graphic and it's especially for Palms to get funky with. :-)

Everybody GET FUNKY! Textures, brush strokes, backgrounds, manipulation. Go crazy! :-)

...not. LOL

Used a java based program that creates Puzzle Image Mosaics for this one. Due to quality issues, only posting the link. Have to click (http://img464.imageshack.us/img464/8401/besteyesvg9.jpg) to see. :)

Peter that would be a bit harsh, I only chopped his head up a little, I liked your Silver Lady

Gilbert that is cool looking maybe some colour in her eyes would add to it ?

lkroll now that is FUNKY

Janet glad you had a chuckle, it really was to good to miss !

Swampy here is a image i made for a rare posting on another forum, it was to demonstrate different uses of brushes, so it is a bit different

Shades of "Goldfinger."

Can't decide if this is funky or junky.

"Funky" that's bordering on scarey but real cool :grin:

Lonnie, that is wonderful! Did you use a color fill layer? Yours has such a great color tone to it. It's not really black and white, but has a cool cast to it.

Thanks, Palms. Yeah, I guess it is a bit spooky!

Thanks, Swampy. Yes, I did tone it with a VERY low saturated gold to compliment the blue eyes.

The fun part was doing all the weird distorting to simulate a reflection in warped mirror tiles.

I've been revisiting the Painter tutorials. This is straight out of the book with a little Photoshop tweaking thrown in.

Funky, she is.
