The unfortunate by Zethus

0930_23: I never took it as appealing in any manner Floris. I think it is a good contest entry. It is so sad and it leaves an empty feeling for those who care. I think the Unfortunate were called the Forgotten during The Great Depression.
On a side bar, I once lived in a town in Iowa named Floris.
Good luck in the contest.

Shattered by casechaser

purmusic: Nice one, John.

Thumbnail caught my eye in and amongst the new images.. and here I be.

Interesting to me, in that in employing a warmer palette, which seemingly (and might) contradict the visual message of sorts ... that is, until one reads your accompanying narrative.


Her mouth (area) is a tad more prominent. Curious if by design, creative aim?

And the additional texturing is exquisite. The final image is very polished.


And but of course, thank you for sharing this thought provoking piece with us.


p.s. Any use of displacement maps?

Looks to be, and if not and for your creative future consideration.. here you go, in case unawares:

Photoshop Tutorial: Displacement Maps

Loads of other tutorials out there as well, the above one is quite succinct and concise.
