My (pregnant) best friend was laying on the beach and I asked her to look at something, she said she couldn't, so I looked at her and realized that she couln't see over her chest! We thought it was pretty funny, so I snapped a shot. I didn't enter this into the free study for september because I was afraid it would get disqualified because of how much I edited it. I erased a towel, smoothed he skin, made her belly look bigger, and the biggest thing was that I completely re-did her nose because it looked HORRIBLE before (there was a huge shadow over it). By the way I fixed the nose ONLY by using the smudge...what a pain, though it came out pretty good considering I like the way this look and I spent a lot of time on it, but I'm just frustrated b/c I'll never know if it would have been DQed or not.

to be honest, i find the nose a little unappealing, i think u stuffed it up a little too much there, it seems to be on the verge of cartoon or photo, but otherwise pretty gd

Perfect and clever "M" IMO.

Like the M. The nose is a little funky and plastic, but I suspect half that nearly half your audience will not notice.

The nose & cheek bones look un-natural. The color is not consistent with the rest of her, the lack of natural shadows and smooth skin makes it look all plastic in appearance.
