Hairless Hanks

Poor Tom Hanks looks a little miffed at the idea of someone taking a picture of him without his rug.

You might want to check the brightness setting on your monitor. There is still some left over debris in the blacks surrounding his head.

Okay... I can't see it... and I've tried looking from every angle possible, at every brightness setting...
It is perfectly possible though, I used for or five layers around the head and it's possible I left one of them visible by mistake...

Aww :(
Bummer...

Thanks for the heads up.

oh well EmmaMay - I can't see them either...

I like this image :) - May I please make suggest a couple of things which may have improved it further:
- it would be logical (and look nice) to have continued that lovely blue-reflected light on Tom's neck/jaw up onto his newly balded bonce.
- The outline of his bald head is not as crisp/sharp as the outline around the rest of his head
- the dome of his head looks, in my no-expert-on-Tom-Hanks opinion, a little too small.

Hope that is helpful - keep up the good work, looking forward to seeing more from you soon

Well, I'm glad it's not just me can't see them... However, as I said before, it is entirely possible they're there.

- To be honest, I never even noticed that light on the side of his jaw etc. What a shame :( I agree, it would have helped the transition.

- I deliberately blurred the edge of his head... it looked SO crisp it just looked... kinda stuck on... if that makes sense. I guess I blurred it a bit too much. My bad.

- His head should be about right. I (might have cheated, but it was the only way I could figure how achieve baldness) pasted a bald guy over Hanks, lined up the eyes, ears and chin and started merging. However, peoples heads are of course different sizes, so it's highly likely it may still be a bit small.

Oh well, first time at balding... plenty of tips for next go :D Wait 'til I get hold of a pic of my dad >.>

Thanks muchly,
EM
