Welcome back, Janet!! Nice to see you around here again.

Now tell me, how did you do the first one. I've been trying to get an effect something like that and can't seem to get it right. How did you do it?

Re: Creative Portraits: Hunk for the Ladies 1

Well I thought I aught to show willing and do something with this one, as Craig has led the way for us real men.
I think I may have done something for this wimp (hope he's not reading this).

I wonder if this will kick start this thread.

Re: Creative Portraits: Hunk for the Ladies 1

Well, I tried to make him look a little more like he was relaxing in the backyard rather than modeling for a girlie magazine... cropped, colored, liquified away some of the extra muscle, tried to make him look a bit more realistic...

Is'nt that something to do with wrestling.
Besides I don't do things by halves.
Not counting all my half baked ideas of course, or..........
I think I'll stop now that hole I'm digging is getting mighty deep.
