Manip and wall... again

Second Angel manip in a very short time. I just stuck to him at the moment. *sheepish grin*
So, if you're interested, take a look at my LJ and find it here. :)

Very nice job. I've tried doing a manip once, but I just couldn't get the hang of it...It's finding the correct head shots and then blending the head with the body -- especially the skin tone...I guess I should practice.

Maybe I'll post the one I did here for comments and suggestions. But great job!!!!

*gg* Yeah, manipping is not something for everyone. I'm a little perfectionalist, so I love searching for the right head and play with colors ect. as long as it takes me to get it right.
But I would love to see your first try. :) Mine was so crappy... *deep blush*

I'll post them here later today. I'm a bit of a perfectionist myself so it can get a bit frustrating. Plus, I never know where people go and find their bases.

Can you give me some places to go?

Mostly I find them by chance. Every time I see a pic that might be useful for manipping, I save it. Or I use shoots of other actors/singers. For the charas I manip mostly I have some actors/singers I prefer (like Jessica Simpson for Buffy or Tara). Or I use shoots of the Buffy-stars and just put them together. Sometimes there're shoots that fit perfectly together and I just can't let them as they are. *sigh*
So just experiment a bit. Sometimes you can screens, too, but mostly the quality is not good enough. :( It's always a hard fight when I have to use screens. ;)
Hope I could help you a bit.
