Re: The Welder Man

A Gold Star for the protégé Peter.. You have probably made your Mentor very proud!

Great description of your process, Thanks!

My children always seemed to get better whenever I watched them also... Hmmm.. must be a male thing!

Heres hoping the sick ones in your family have a speedy recovery..

Cool Re: The Welder Man

Here is my attempt at this guy. I thought of his job and made him look like this,
also because it's the only thing that came to mind!

I used LightRoom on this one. Then I tweaked contrast a little and smoothed it using Gaussian Blur in CS2.

The Scott Kelby tutorial on this type of imaging is at this URL:
