I found this challenge a very hard one to come up with a picture for. So this is the best I could do after many attempts, I guess I'll have to enter it, I'm being hogged into it ;)

What a creative idea for this challenge. It should have scored much higher than it did, but I know I'm a wee bit biased :)

Too staged looking, but meets the challenge.

I like the concept and the dirty finger nails are nice, only I would have liked to see this grittier, and maybe having the 'extra' card on the palm where it would be. Kinda hard to slip a card off the back of the hand. The colours seems a bit flat, but if you upped the contrast and added a bit of texture I think it would work out just fine.

Wish it would have been an adult's hand.

nice! I like lots of emotion and great blood/knife work good luck in the challenge. I also like how the hand of the stabbed is facing up as if stuck into the table. :)

The only way this picture could be more over-explanatory was if there were arrows poiting to the different elements in the picture...

Nice work. A lot of effort has clearly gone into this one. I like the idea. The only thing that springs to mind on the negative for this one is that the model hand looks to be of a young teen (male) which would hopefully not fit into a cheating gambler situation. I do like the work done on this one though and think that it deserves a minimum of 9 pushing 10.

the only thing strange about this shot is that the hand looks like a little kids hands - and that makes this photo a wee bit off for me.

Think the PP needs to be more somber / dark, nice work though, 7.

That's disgusting...but nicely executed...

I'm scoring all the blood ones low, purely cos I dont like blood!
07/25/2007 03:15:31 PM
Yikes!!! What can I say, but omg!!! Amazing effects, just wish the hand were an adult's hand.

cheesy

Good thinking. Not too fond about the execution though. Harsh shadows and halo's on the cards suggest you used too much USM (6)
