Day 3

A little Frank Sinatra to set the mood...
 "What's the matter? You look like you've been on a hayride with Dracula." 
Ruby (Patricia Farr) to Phillip Raven (Alan Ladd) in THIS GUN FOR HIRE (1942)


Hand as photographed before I "took liberties" with it.  :D
 I couldn't resist a sketch of this one too.


 and just a touch of color...

    Oh Yeah, the Eyes are back! I love the one with the clear eyes (cigarette) best. And adding the hat in your drawings is the icing on the cake.

    Wow, that's fantastic! The addition of the smoke, perfectly lit like that, and the expression you have managed to draw out of your hand with those eyes, is just fantastic! Excellent work!

    But how do we know it's your hand? It's unrecognisable with that stocking on it ;)

    Great moody shot!

    Are you so artistic that you photoshopped in the ciggy and the smoke? Or did you perhaps confiscate it from another photo? I am perplexed???

    I laughed when I saw this. Quite a creative idea, and nicely touched up as well. I would have removed the artefact in the top left corner though, but still a favourite of mine!
