When I do a makeup design, I sometimes scan the actors face in and paint it up with photoshop. This is my good friend Dawn, she was cast as the witch in a short film called 'The Bone Trick'. Although she didn't end up doing the film, I always liked this design and wished I could have been able to do it.

I love it, very evilish looking! I especially like all the different creepy things poking out of her hair, and how pale she and her eyes are--so little contrast, and for some reason, that adds to the scariness.

her eyes are the exact same as my characters. But Silver doesn't have her hair braided...most of the time...

Woooooooooooooooooooooowwwwww.... She is creepy, but I love the depth and detail. THe lack of... color etc. to the face is great, and the hair is unbelievable! I don't know where you got all of that talent, but I think you should share!
*grins* beautimus.

She looks calm, maybe even sort of peaceful, but still so eerie, especially with her very light eyes. I love all of the details about her hair and I appreciate that you paid so much attention to it. Would love to see more stuff like this in your gallery.

That is very awesome indeed! The eyes are sp-sp-spooooky! Haha, awesome job!

First impression: What is she thinking? ^_~

Colors! The color scheme! I love the palette you used! Her hair is a very pretty color (mahogany, mmmm), and I love how you 1. managed to get that tone into the shadows of her skin, the cracks in her lips, and 2. got the shade of those dead eyes into her hair. That really helps keep the image whole, if you know what I mean.

Does she have TWO skeleton hands in her hair? Or is that just this POS monitor I'm using? *grins* Like others have already said, the crazy trinkets you've got in her tresses really make her look other-worldly, detail-oriented . . . as crackpot as a witch should be. ^_^

One thing. (I always have one of these at the bottom, sorry) The Celtic knot there below her right eye is very beautiful . . . I can't IMAGINE tying one of those into my hair and actually having it stay - see me cutting it out within fifteen minutes, LMAO. This could just be because it's a Photoshop work, but that knot is very detracting. Too much, perhaps. *shrug*

Oh, I would have LOVED to actually see a person dressed up like this! That would be monumental! All in all, a very beautifully done piece. ^_^

That´s great! The pic looks like a photo, so real. And the lips... perfect!!!

Bloody hell! Scary-looking... 'course, however fightening her looks are, I'm sure she's a well-meaning *looks at bones*...ah...*runs away*
