the hands without the photoshopped texture.. I used the world top thinggybob.. and I diffued it and gave it a slight..so slight transperency.
I have to  crop..so never mind the top.. I liked it for one reason.. my housekeeper walked past, saw it and exclaimed that the top bit of the hands..where the texture colour change isn't there..looks like my Dad's elbow.. I have no idea how those folds along the muscles happened. And it is true..looks exactly like his forearm..not the hand.. a few months before he became a star. he had lost tons of weight.
Probs is.. there is a colour change.. and the rest of the hands look a bit weird. Mind you..I haven't touched the fingernails.. and I had to put one small tiny light under the palm of the hand.
