Artist's Comments

Forever Alone... Forlorn.

model: me
make-up and hair: me (if you can call pouring water over your head "hairstyling"...)

RAW
Photoshop CS3 (no blurring and no skin softening at all!)

DD Update: Thank you very much ^Staged and *CBJJBC for the feature and the wonderful comment! :hug:
I will reply to as many comments as possible, but i doubt i will say thank you to everyone in person, especially for the favs... so... thank you! :D

I will upload the original to my scraps when i can find it... some people don't seem to believe in the miracles of make-up und f/1.8 ;P

Update2: the promised original (before/after) [link]

About Prints: i'm offering high-quality, signed and numbered prints. feel free to contact me via note or mail (see my profile)
Daily Deviation, 2008-04-09

Daily DeviationForlorn by ~Valatar is one of most amazing portraits I've come across in a long time. The softness of the skin is achieved purely with light, there's a subtle grain that gives the image depth, and the model itself is stunning. A boy and a man at the same time. (Suggested by =CBJJBC and Featured by `Staged)
