This first two look really good. I want to do more of this too- artistically painting over the person in the photo to give it some "out in the field" and "banged up" sort of looks. Like in the second one, all the added blood and dirt. In that one he started with a photo, but manipulated it so much that it almost looks like a painting.

I really think we need to arrange some photo-shoot days with a bunch of us. Perhaps in a park somewhere. And ideally on a bright but overcast day (best lighting!!). There's only so much you can do in photoshop (with my newb skills) without a good picture to start from.

I would love to have photos like this done. Would be cool to have the bunch of us doing things like this.

Those are fantastic photos. Hopefully I can get the rest of my kit assembled before June. Work has squashed my time, and my intended sources for some of the bits aren't taking orders. :o

Can someone post the pic in here?  I just realized I didn't actually see it and when I tried- I can't.  :(

I like that a lot....what's he got there, the Gen II Templar or 12th C sword?  That's a beefy one.  Hey, he uses leather thongs to tighten up his arms like I do.  Who is this anyway? 

Ivan, what're you wearing in your avatar pic?

All the pics are there for me. I saved a copy of them last night (always filling up my collection), I could post them to my photobucket or something if you can't see them - but do they show up as an X for you or something?

That one reminds me of Arn The Templar. Wonder if all that dirt is real or just shopped in.

Myarmoury the site itself is blocked.  Just horrible, I know.

Sir Ulrich, I believe that image was altered to include the dirt and blood.
