 ouch, this was a hard shot to try for basic... I originally wanted to do this as a face shot, but decided it would be easier to draw and line up lines on my body (face is too contoured), and yeah, I realize, my DPC challenges folder is going to be all T&A before ya know it..

this one I definitely had to have Dave help me with the camera part, I made the fan and then painted myself and lined it all up, but had to have him click the button, not even the remote was going to work for this

hope you liked it



Also, Just to let everyone who was confused know, the stars and the question mark are a tattoo of mine, didn't want to take chances on it partially showing so I just painted around it instead

I’m sorry that I just saw this but this shot is incredible. Mainly for the time spent preparing and the artistic value. Amazing job…should have placed a bit higher also.

You just keep getting better and better! Take advice from an old lady. Get as many nekkid' pix of yourself as you can while you're young and thin;)

Very creative shot with nice tones and great lines.

Very nicely done! You sure are coming along girl!

Great visuals with the S curls and the W in the fan to really complement your title.

I like that little question mark.

Original idea and well pulled off!

Wow!!! On many levels. The lighting is perfect. The art and the way the lines on the body match the fan is just awesome. And the shape of the model ... can I go back to WOW again?

My favourite photo I have seen here for quite some time. I can't wait to see who took it.

Will be amazed if this is not the blue here!

.....several body paint works in this challenge. The topic would make for a interesting challenge by itself. Sepia is good on this.

Someone went to a lot of trouble here and I think I know who ;-) Very beautiful.

I'd like to see this in BW instead of sepia. Very different from the other entries. I like how you continued the swirly lines on the fan. The button stud is a little distracting, but the question mark in the star is cute.
