Totally! It got really annoying after the fourth person said something -.- Anyway, thanks for the comment. I rather like this too ^_^ --L~.^
NOT a promotion for the tobacco companies ~.^ by @Biscuits (Elli Gibbs)
Okay, I took a printed version of this pic to school and I dunno how many people asked me if I was promoting smoking. -.- I'm not, just to let you know.
Anyway, about the picture: I used an alternate method of shading/highlighting for this (reminiscent of my cereal picture, if you've seen that) which I thought came out nicely. If you've ever used P.S. 5.5, you know purple doesn't "burn" well. And since this picture was largely purple and looked kinda old-schoolish, I figured the blocky shading would look nice.
I think I was right.
(This image got me into trouble somehow... apparently smoking is considered offensive and merits a re-rating of a picture from E to T... I definitely need to pay more attention -.-)
I really like this! I hate it when people get all miffed about artistic nudity or smoking. It's so immature.
