Alright, I am interested to see... What is the more liked image. I shot this today off the cuff, snap shot kind of deal. The first image has a very light, fast touch up job (I want to see if that type of image is the more liked, just the more real looking thing)

The second is a multi-step air brushing operation.







I get a TON of mixed opinions on what portraits should look like, so I decided to go to a vaster opinion base.

The first, as the latter looks too fake. Too plastic.

You lose all of the detail around the lips and cheeks.

First, second is waaaaay over done. Unless you like the playboy model/airbrush art look.

EDIT: Still the first.

That third one's quite nice.

So who is she? Cute.

I think the second one looses some of the shadow in the cheeks. It's lost any "texture" necessary for a close up. Kind of like an oriental mask. Good try though.

I bring annihilation

The third one gives her a nice angelic appearance. I like them both a lot, but for pure portrait the first one is the best.

Her name is Shannon.


She is fourteen, and lust-fully attractive.

First, if you were better at airbrush you might be able to fix some blemishes but you'll need practice.

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

I like the first.

Unless you're specifically going for an airbrushed look you can't beat the kind of detail and shading you get in the first picture. Those kinds of details, in the lines, freckles, hair texture, etc... are what make the shot as good as it is, especially (I feel) with black and white.
