Metamorphosis Incomplete

This is funny. I'm not sure what the title is supposed to represent, but I like the approach. You might try a less obvious blend on the hair of the left image; the fade makes me more apparent that it is artificial. (Not that it wouldn't be obvious, but if this image did exist, he wouldn't likely have a see through head. Make sense?)

This image might a bit stronger if it had a bit of context? There does not seem to be a lot of action in his pose or expression so it leaves me looking for a possible explanation. I like the lighting in this.

I like the personality this image conveys. It gives a nice idea of the person whose portrait you are taking. I think it could be strengthened by making the front image a bit larger and moving the image in the back over a bit to the left. It might make it easier to engage with the subject in the front image.

I like this idea, although I might try a softer transition from to "hair." Using shadows to follow the contours of his face would add a bit more depth and realism.

This is an interesting idea. If your source image were a bit more recognizable (perhaps it is on the larger version?), it might be a bit stronger. Also, on a more subtle note, I'd consider leaving the whites of his eyes white and untextured, it gives the eye a bit of something to focus on. Bumping this up a point.

I really like this, although I would like a bit more clarity on the right side. It seems a bit soft/blurry.

The tones are nice on this seemingly candid shot. He looks ready to help you, and I consider that a good thing!

I wonder if a bit more contrast (i.e. brightness) in the face might help the image pop a bit more. Still, interesting use of texture and tone.

This is a very interesting effect! One of the most interesting. I do feel the color is a *bit* too bright, but it's very interesting.
