Its basically me in a fit of fury after spending 3 hours working on another self portrait, only for photoshop to crash on me...

This photo has been digitally retouched.

Get rid of the face and make a new one..

LMAO. Nicely done. Very amusing image (and, PS apart, I like the feel of the underlying photo - very gritty and real)

This is quite unlike anything I've seen before! Brilliant! Do you combine graphics and photography a lot?

Ta very much. Ive never really combined them before, till i found myself doodleing on a old photo of a friend and something just clicked in my head. Ive already done a handful of different images of my friends and ive got some in the pipeline, its just finding the time around the day job.. good luck luv.,.

Hey now, this is really really inventive and quite magnificent for it. But technically speaking I thuink it needs a little attention inplaces. It looks like there's a sharp geometric halo round the back of the hair which may be a sign of a photoshop cut-out? If so then adding a 'select by colour' can sometimes pick-up enough scrag-ends of hair to mask the cut-out. Love to see more along theselines though, well done. :^)

Cheers for the comment fella, yeah i kinda rushed the path round the top edge of the hair, i had to extract the whole head so i could warp it to fit the mouth correctly, and i just rushed blending it back into the image. ive already started to solve it, its just taking some time.. Ive made a whole series of these kind of images, all done from portraits of my friends. here's a link if yer interested: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.ListAll&friendID=39364061 cheers.

3 hours?! Flippin' heck. Interesting piece. A tad too contrasty; cool drawing though!

A nice fun picture. I like the simplicity of the lines and the lack of fussy detail ( that could have made the image seem pretentious)
