Description
Raven mask, horse hair, and just a pinch of darkness.Inspired by late 1800's/early 1900's photos of cultural transitions to modernism; Native Americans in business suits with animal skins, Samurai in suits still with topknots. My idea of an old-Pagan transition to modernism.

It looks great! I love the texture added to it! All the splats, scratches, smudges, and darkness in specific areas, definitely make it look like a real vintage photo that was scanned! Did the model wear all of this or did you add these in digitally? I do believe you just inspired me, cheers mate.

Thanks for the lengthy reaction The lighting was all natural in a corner of a room I use specifically for photography, because of how perfect it creates cast shadow from such soft natural lighting from a thick paned window. I myself am the model, as it was a self-taken photo on a timer, as are most of my self-related photographs..and speaking of myself as the model, yes all that is actually there. I bought a large bolero hat ages ago, along with the raven mask. The long hair mixed with black and blonde is a bonded gathering of horse hair I've collected from my teen years of working on breeding farms.
