Kudos to you for attempting what I am sure must have been a very challenging composition! You captured some nice details in the face, the expression, and the 'nails' extruding out from the face. As always, lighting is key in effectively illuminating your subject to showcase all the elements and project a mood. While I do like that there is the deep shadows off to the left because it looks like he is emerging from the safety of the darkness to face the world with his 'defensive' mask - it obscures quite a bit of details on the left side of his face. By evenly lighting the whole face you will heighten our awareness of this subject's fear of being touched by showing his 'defensive' mask in it's entirety. Lastly I think the choice of long nails or screws doesn't work to well with them showing as sticking straight out from the face. Because of the weight distribution and their length a few look like they are drooping or in danger of falling off. A shorter nail length and a larger head surface on the nail (like what you see in the original) would work better for them to stick straight out and appear more menacing. Nonetheless good job here. |

My only recommendation would have been a little fill on the lh side of the frame. 6 |

Despite the harsh lighting, I give you extra credit for effort. The long screws make me think of amieethetoo's Prickly Pear. |

Outstanding. Reminds me of the hellraiser movies. |

couldn't splurge on some roofing nails? and how about some "fear" in the eyes? |

nice spin on the photo, but i think for this challenge it would have been better if you had lit it from both sides to be more like the first one |
