Is this GORGEOUS piece of editing mine? Why, yes! Yes, it is! Now, granted, all it appears I have done is cut Valentine out and paste her here, and that is true enough.....but wait, there's more! I used shading techniques on her skin to smooth her out, shadow some areas, and highlight others. Then I cut her off of the black background she was originally on which required quite a bit of work due to all of her fly aways and curls. I then darkened some of her strands with black streaks to account for any uneditable black spaces. All in all, this was a lot of fun and a lot of work but well worth it in the end! I'm super proud of this one. Now there are only a couple of questions that remain...
Is she too tall for the shot? I'm trying to figure out if she truly is proportioned to the shot. In some ways, it looks like she should be smaller but when I scaled her down, even a little, she looked too small!
Does she blend in properly? I don't know if she really looks like she's there. I understand there is some sort of color filter in Epic that makes these sorts of photos look more realistic. Is that true? Must find out!
