It's not! You got to go brown or green, it's the only way I'm afraid.

Great pictures, I love the mood they portray. Your photoshop and photography skills are very good.
I've never tried an image like this. Might have to soon.

I believe he is saying your photo is as good or better than Joey's in the Original Post.

My opinion: Your shirt is just too clean. :)

I like #2 the best by far. #1 doesn't do anything for me. #3 looks overly processed to me but pretty well composed, except you might have kept the legs in the picture. Keep it up.

also I would love to know the technique you used for the photo itself and for post processing if you cared to share.

I can't even remember all the steps, but it did involve some grunge actions I downloaded here:

There was also the things I mentioned above, lots of dodging and burning, and for the one with the gas mask I duplicated the background layer, applied a gaussian blur and overlayed them.

I like mix the color balance and use selective color. I also like the deep color I get from duplicating the layer and using "color burn" at an opacity around 30%.

I saw these the other day when you first put them on..I was going to say something then about how much I liked them, but I couldn't find the words.

I really think that you should invest in some bleach..:)

I'm dying to know (cuz I can't quite make it out on my monitor), what is being reflected in the raccoon's eyes in Pic 3? I just have a sneaking suspicion that you've snuck some additional level of detail in there that is so subtle I'm missing it.

I chose not to desat the color in his eyes, it's just tree branches. Since they are bright green, I thought it would bring more attention to his eyes.
