notice that theres a distinct line between the hair above the forehead and the actual forehead. Its really noticeable, and bugs alot.

I would try to think of better ways to fix that hair line instead of the just making a perfect circle made of forehead skin.

aaaawwwww, thanks! I'm sorry I didn't see your message before now... If I remember correctly this was a masked color fill on softlight blending mode, with some clipped curves for color adjustment, I'm pretty sure that was it.

Awww Damn! I just finished working on one of the shots and decided to go back through the pages to admire others' work. And I just realized that 2 other people have already done the vampire theme sad sad

Oh well, may I still have permission to use your lovely image in my portfolio?? (I'm in the process of creating a PS wizard account)
