USMC Iwo Jima - Work in Progress...

posted by roman, jarhead, kong

Hello...
the USMC bust is getting further and further, more and more soul energy pumping into this bust... anyone yet reached Tom Hanks?

It is soon from being finished, got to work on the sleeping bag camouflage and some final details to bring him to an end... also writing up the Step by Step for you besides, already in Progress and at the moment i have 105 photos prepared and some already included in the article - that is really Madness... today i made some experiments to make some of the WIP shots black and white... and i really like the result... still Work in Progress, but the way it is turning makes even me happy...

If you like this b/w picture of the actual WIP, let me know via comment, i could need some motivation to finish the Article (105 photos, haha, i am getting mad)...

um

    Hey Roman, this is a nice one.

    But you miss the point with b/w-pictures. They should be all about contrast. High-Key, Low-Key, all that.

    I prepared a part of this picture above so you can see what I mean:

    Keep up the great work!
