Wow indeed. That looks EXACTLY like a cross between Jennifer Aniston and Barbara Streisand.

OMG you're incredible.....The talent is obvious.....Rembrandt would be so fucking proud...Van Gogh is sending you his other ear...You're a genius.
HORSESHIT!
You're using A PIECE OF FUCKING PORTRAIT SOFTWARE does anyone else understand this, am I the only one who can comprehend this.
Everyone please repeat after me: YOU ARE NOT A FUCKING ARTIST WHEN YOU USE A PIECE OF SOFTWARE TO ENHANCE AN EXISTING PICTURE.
My God you even have the fucking balls to sign your name to it!!!!
Thats like the guy making your sandwich at subway putting his initials on the sandwich wrapper and saying...."there's no need to thank me, my craft is reward enough"
That looks NOTHING like any of the photos she's posted here.
It looks like "Markie Post" from TV's "Night Court"

Wow....Nice Photo
Lets break this down ....you SENT him a photo.
I need to apologize....his "Instant Artist Version 3" digital portrait software did a fine job of REPRODUCING your existing digital image.
It's amazing what a computer can do with the right piece of software.
Nice photo

Actually, Lanin, I draw the base portraits with a #2 mechanical pencil, scan them, and complete the shading and detail using Corel Paintshop Pro. But you think what you want.

The next one I do I will post process shots. Until then you can tell me how I managed to create this charcoal of a Nepalese woman, whose original is hanging on my library wall. Knock yourself out.

She is. What in god's name she is doing wasting herself on a mud-slinging cunt whose toilet water runs backwards I will never understand. But, as mmmtravis would say, "It is what it is."

I have to say, Lanin, that when I started this little project I was very, very rusty. I had not done any serious art in many years. My art had been confined to cartooning pretty much. I didn't have much inspiration to do more than that until I got the idea for this.
At any rate, thanks. And next time you are given a horse, remember that it is bad form to check its teeth.

lanin, the technique that TT is using is very similar to what i use on digital paintings, although TT is using cheap amateur kiddie software intended for housewives to crop photos of their kids playing soccer.
the interface of a graphics tablet (which I believe is what TT is using) is very different to traditional mediums like ink, paint, charcoal, etc, but when that pen is in your hands, you're still confined by the same amount of talent (or lack thereof) as you are with traditional mediums.
i think TT has talent; his biggest problem is that he isn't open to criticism.
