    The mood of the image has been created with the photo filter option. for enhacing the shadows and the lights I've used a blurry brush set on black, opacity - 25 %, and for the lights, the dodge tool was very useful. The rest is simple :P Enjoy! credits and thanks: http://www.cgtextures.com ht...

    I see the grunge style as being too dark and as an art style that expresses many oppressive feelings...Thought at many of these feelings and the one that made me reflect a lot was the danger of not loving yourself the way you are.
