Well, this one's a post-processing disaster, but I'm sick of editing tonight. Maybe I'll come back to it another day.

Disaster? In what way?!? I think this is amazing. In fact, my first thought was "wow, who got to paint the stripes on?" ;)

Exactly what I was thinking after reading your description. Diane, your pics are always clean, crisp, in focus and all the technical things are done perfectly. More than that there is a definite style and fun to your pics. I just love them! But yeah, take a break. When you come back you might have something pop into your head that you missed before. Happens to me ALL THE TIME!

And I love the light coming up under you chin and neck. Great processing no matter what you say. LOL

Looks darn good to me! Great idea with the zebra/tiger stripes. Very well executed too. You do some amazing work.

Rather cool to me. FUN to push the envelope. I wonder if the background were more white or maybe play with desaturation of black in the neutral areas.

I can't tell if this is body paint or applied in photoshop.

if this is a disaster, i'd like to see some of your 'good' stuff.

You obviously worked on this a lot, as we can still see the freckles on your left arm (meaning you didn't just slap a layer on top of this... Disaster? No such thing here!

Whuh?? Disaster?? HAHA! You must be a perfectionist! I can relate! I gotta tell ya though, I love this. Did you make the pattern freehand? Excellent job! Stop beating yourself up. :)

edit to add that I forgot to mention the caption that immediately popped into my head when I saw this: "Ok Zebra Girl, drop the weapon and put your hands up!" hahahaha. :) Ok, I know it sucks - a disaster even - but I am sick of coming up with captions tonight. ;-) Just ribbin ya. Smile. :)

Terrific, and that was done in PS?
Maybe post-processing would be easier if you used a little body paint!

really really cool idea. dang that would be a crazy awesome tattoo huh? i love the imagination and creativity pouring from this photo.

Well done! I like it, very creative.

Very unique. I'll bet that is an arduous task to paint all those stripes. Were you using a layer with a blend mode set to "Color" to preserve the highlights and shadows on your skin?

This is super cool, maybe you that know how much you changed it can see the problems, for me it's really beyond my capabilities with PS
