    Re: Model 2

    I like the top image best. The single nostril doesn't work for me. Might work better if there was some shadow alongside the nose? Am curious as to your choice to go with the grainy PP...just something different, or are you trying to match a film?

    I find it interesting that the second image looks better when smaller...Your FB post comes out about 3/4 the size as this one, and for some reason looks better.

    Thanks for commenting.

    i find it interesting that you both prefer the top image. I like seeing the nose.

    Seems to be a slight trend to split the face in half, as I have seen this in numerous advertisements like such:

    Ken, regarding the grain: Sometimes things just look too common straight up. Honestly, I find it hard to stand out in such a competitive field. I think the distinguishing factors are lighting (which I am working hard on) and bold poses, and of course, it never hurts to have great models. So I am experimenting with artistic effects, creating 'moods' and such.. why not, I guess.
