That was very challaging, I had planned to cut River out to give me more creative feedom but with that hair all spread out not happening! I had to resort to doing most of the coloring via adjustment layers and masking.

Wow, this challenge really brings out the gems!

I love that cap, even though it has really difficult lighting. Your icons all look gorgeous! I love the grungy textured look, and how you managed to make them look different by rotating the image.

My faves are 5 and 6 and 10, and the alt is great, too.

Thank you. Its funny how on full size images the colouring dosn't look too bad and you think 'okay this cap has a slight colour cast but i can work with that' but once its cropped and the exposure upped and normal base work, you some how end up with a compleatly flat yellow base with no colour toning what so ever.
