 Had this idea for the challenge 'Rock Songs' but I was too busy during the week to shoot this. Today I figured I might as well do it now, because I never know if I will ever actually do it.

Looking for a bit of the grim side of the music industry. Ive been to my share of concerts and have seen how, sometimes, stardom takes a toll on the artists.


Edit: Took advice and dodged and brightened the eyes, added a shadow mask to darken the hands. Thanks to everybody that has helped and continues to help with this critiquing!

Very nice concept, and well executed. I agree that the fingers of your right hand could stand to be toned down a touch, but other than that I say it's a winner.

Very cool setup! The pov, composition and gritty processing are all spot on for me. Only nitpick, I'd like to see the fingers darker, especially those by your face, and your face a bit brighter. Would like to see your eye brightened up too. This would look killer in b&w!

Nice off-camera lighting, the subject matter is a bit grim. As I said in the forum thread, the Lucis-look is a touch overpowering for me. I'd back that layer off a few % points, and maybe play with the different blend modes.
