This is a picture of me that put over the photocopy filter in photoshop, overlaid on top of the actual picture. Then I lowered the opacity to the actual picture dramatically, added in my own highlights, then put it under the "flash light" lighting effect and began shading and such with the dodge and burn tool and adding color here and there. I really like it so far, and I think the colors I chose look kind of "ganguro"~ish which makes me smile

I do believe I will be adding more detail and such to this picture, but I was too proud of it not to post it up on here lol Please feel free to give me any suggestions of what you think should be added on or taken away, because I'll be keeping multiple versions of this picture and maybe might do one of those spiffy quartet portrait pictures thingies =B

ok I'll stop blabing now lolol
