after a LOT of work here it is

I basically created the whole image from scratch, only sources I used was a trace for the body shape and pictures to take colour samples from, ( for skin and hair ), this is by far the longest time I've spent on an entry.

also comes in big size - its worth a look

Let me know what you think!

This is from a photo of the pumpkin I carved last halloween.

I followed the tutorial included in the entry info and look what I got! Looks awesome to me, thanks! It's from a picture of Richie Sambora from the band Bon Jovi.

my first try, 10 mins of work ;-)...
