Description
This is a picture that was not meant to ever be what I saw in my head so I cut my losses and finished it in a form I was less than satisfied with.

God, this picture is so unsatisfying. The male face/hand so awkward...

Male Face and hand/key: me
Male Body: ~Cobweb-stock
Female Model: `lockstock
Pillars: `AutumnsGoddess
Balcony/Corset/Necklace (used as dress detail): ~BrushHaven1
Smoke: ~Shadow-Brushes
Sparkles: ~crashdowngrrl
Foliage: `spiritsighs
Various stock: images free for use on sxc.hu

Constructed in Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Photoshop CS (I prefer the simpler interface of Elements, but needed CS to do certain bits) over two or three weeks. Original file is 2400x3600, 50 layers, too much of a nightmare for me... I won't ever do another picture like this again. The level of frustration with this one was very high, and it never came around to looking even close to the original design.
