Firstly carved pumpkin
Used old spectacle lenses sprayed with metalic green paint for the eyes.
Hair gel for the tear drop.
Sprayed face white.
Tried to get the stars by using string of Christmas lights but they appeared too big in the photograph, so cloned them all out, leaving one.
Adjusted levels on the pumkin,and lassoo and dodge and burn on the tear drop to make it look as realistic as possible.
Used magic wand to select the whole background, and filled with noise, then levels to enhance the black and white.

You did it! You left me without anything funny to say. Being alone in the universe is nothing to joke about! I love the tear drop on our alien's cheek--I would kiss it dry if I could.... |
