    Honestly, it took me a while to read the name on the first shot! Once you get it, it’s easy, but at first I was struggling :D
    Anyway, cool ideas and love the texture in the second shot! Not too sure about the hood (?), undecided rather.
    Well done on the photoshop as I don’t think I could ever do anything similar even! Very cool for promo shots or just to show your friends, I like them! :)

    I often struggle with ideas on teenage portraits with teenage attitude. I think you have nailed it with the first , great Idea. Second is a good image and good processing!. Text doesnt work though, still can read it?.

    How did you bring out the blood vessles in the eyes??. The iris on the right eye just needs to be toned down a little to make it sit better in the image

    Love the second one RAS. How did you figure out how to get this effect ?

    Thanks for the comments folks,

    RASmith: the text is meant to be almost graffiti-like, as Jekaterina is a break-dancer, this would fit in with her style/persona.

    The blood vessels in the other shot were individually saturated to make them pop. I also drew in a few more to give the eyes a bit more presence.

    Markst33: the effect in the second is just a texture overlay. This texture was of dry/cracked soil. Simply drag it on top of the main image in PS and set blending to Overlay. I then changed the opacity a bit, brought back the eyes and then ran it through Silver Efex Pro to covert to b&w.
