Have seen this done by body painters and thought it might be a good idea for this challenge. My first evening's shots didn't turn out as well as hoped, so ended up painting myself two nights in a row. Thank goodness for body paint - it washes off easily!

Shot in aperture priority in my kitchen. Cropped, auto colour, added stroke border and resized in Photoshop.

This one was so darn creative! I am one of your 10's. As soon as I saw this, I went "wow".
Well done. I thought for sure you would be in the top 20.
(well, anyway, you were in my TOP 3)

imaginative. Bringing it out from the wall would help soften the shadows.
