Help Stop Censorship! The passing of SOPA will mean the end of Worth1000

I'm a hack of all trades in the world of Visual Effects for Feature film and Television. I also love to draw, paint, photoshop, sculpt, sing, and make ridiculously involved Halloween costumes.

I have a goofy personality, am the husband of an awesome wife who's a kindergarden teacher, and the father of three beautiful kids!

I don't like long walks on the beach, I can't spell, dance, or yodel.... but I do extraordinarily spot on voice impersonations of cartoon characters.

fx The Cyclops	0 Johnrmcconnell said 6 years ago 7/19/2006 12:28:03 AM EDT thanks everyone for all your comments!! I really enjoyed making this one! And sorry about the nose ring...it was a last minute addition, and I really should have spent more time blending it in ;) Permalink No replies

Very nice work on the placement & anatomy of the eye and how it fits in the face. Works really well as just a portrait piece, I'll be surprised if this entry doesn't place. Yea....whew....who knew that the last minute addition of the nose ring would cause such a stir! Ah well..... I solemnly swear that in the future, major parts of the image won't be added last minute!

illo Scheherezade	0 Johnrmcconnell said 6 years ago 7/15/2006 1:49:14 AM EDT Very cool , I like all the transparencies in the veils and curtains. My only critique would be the fingertips of her right hand seem a bit odd. Very nice work though. Permalink No replies

fx Til Schweiger	0 Johnrmcconnell said 6 years ago 5/7/2006 12:21:32 AM EDT Double check the contrast levels on your monitor. The black levels of the hair appear washed out from the color correction to grey. Permalink No replies
fx Heidi K	0 Johnrmcconnell said 6 years ago 5/7/2006 12:21:32 AM EDT Subtly done. The only part that stick out a bit to me is the blend point between the base of the neck and the collar bone. This feels like two different skin textures. Permalink No replies
