Girl's heroine (photomanipulation)

Work on emotion
First Character Design I have made :)
A little work I have done during this very strange moment we are all living
With 1 billion people locked in their home this is my way to bring in front all our medical staff risking their lives for us
during this dark moment. God bless you all.

Done using pixelsquid and pixabay

Wanted to make a film style picture base only on emotion and blue colors

I've done this picture inspired by a work done by Andrei Oprimca.

I was inspired by my man Kim Jongbok. I went in a more modern pic. Wanted to work on a new color grading. Very dark, very dense with a touch of orange light
Model is taken by myself: Julia
Inspired from a fantasy picture done by one of my favorite artist Jenny Lee I decided to go for a more modern pic with this girl standing in the middle for the screen after the end of the fight.
Not quite a hard pic to do but a very long work due to the fact that you need to find and place each destructed building.

Model is taken by myself: Naima Pohler
I have seen a fantastic picture made by a very talented Digital Artist who is sharing his knowledge with people. This pic was a fantastic inspiration and I decided to call my model and I have made this picture.
Fullfilled with a blue tone and hard white Light.
I wanted to make a real contrast between Blue, White and Orange Light as well as soft and hard light !

I wanted to make here a girl version of Mad Max. A simple a windy picture with a very dark color and smooth lightning.
I have added the protection on her arms, leg, the holstern the gun in facter everything even her hair ... haha
I decided to start my life in the cinema at 8 years old the days I have seen my first John Woo ! Yes I know I was a little too young for that.
But it impressed me so much I decided to try making my own john woo film at 10 years old.... then I have never stop...
This picture is a tribute to one of my favorite director with this Dove flying background

I have used Kim JongBok (a Korean Digital Artist) wedding pic as an inspiration (yes a wedding pic hahaha)

Model is shot by myself Fanny
I really loved that model, this is her first acting role and god she made it pretty well I might say ! I have chosen her first because of that powerfull body but afterall when
I saw she was able to made a real pain face I decided to go a little more further and here is a pure action pic !
I wanted to try a brand new color grading more trash, more dusty, more realistic and harsch.
I also tried to make a film style look as usual with this small story I'm use to do each time. Here the cop are coming in the back.
I have spent 14 hours on this picture and I'm quite happy with the color grading the lights. Need to tweak some stuff again. Photoshop is a real amazing tool !
Model is shot by myself: Eva
I like this pic because the face of the girl is like an angel in the dark. There is the fire everywhere and you and you focused on her eyes and her face.
I have added some movement changing her hairs and adding some flying papers.
Then I may have to say I have found a new color grading !
Model is shot by myself: Nicky Kane
Used depositphoto pic and some stuff I have bought
Wanted to try a pretty hard one this time. A huge under shot. Quite hard to do as you need to find the correct perspective for everything that you add (Sky, building, grenade, sword, car, even the hairs need to be tweaked)
Shot with a fantastic and beautifull model, nope I have not touch her eyes ! There are really as clear water !
Model: Eva
Using Stock I have bought (Adrian Sommerling, depositphoto) PixelSquid and RawManip
I wanted to find a new color grading very desaturated. Not really easy to find something nice in this situation. You need to focus on the shadows and lights. Enhancing and tweaking the DOdge and Burning is good way to help making a nice pucture.
Anyway here another badass girl as I'm used to do haha
Pic are coming from depositphoto, pixelsquid and rawmanip
Model is taken by myself: Hélène
I wanted to make a Dark composition all in Blue. This is something I'm not often doing as it is
pretty hard to find the correct tone that won't oversaturate the whole image.
I love working on emotion each time I shoot with my models, I can tell you that they are usually really feeling the pic they are in

The model is shot by Myself : Marie Barrouillet
All pic are coming from PIxaBay and RAWManipulation Stock that I have bought
I wanted to make a fan art manipulation. Because I really love than incredible bad guy Neagan and because my model was a real fan of WALKING DEAD.
This actor is fantastic and I have made my female version of Neagan as usually for my heroine series (yes Girls can be a bad guy too)
Model is shot bymyself: Marie Barouillet
All the pic are coming from pixelsquid
I love making girl's heroine ! When we take picture of men they are always strong and smart and girl just have to be pretty and sexy.
I'm making a whole series with girl's heroine because sometime it is also good to make picture with girl without doing the same tipical sexy and beautiful thing ... :)
Model taken by myself: Melany
All the rest is coming from Pixabay and Stock that I have bought
 I have followed a fantastic course from a fantastic Photographer and PhotoManipulator: Adrian Sommeling.
For me he is the master of the light ! He seems to have a real Photographic Background as he has mastered light like no one.
This image is focused on lights and shadows; I have made it using his inspiration and made it as a tribute for him, sharing his knowledge and his skills. Just give a look ;)
By the Way my model was not wearing any hat, holster, Kevlar Vest or holding guns... everything is added.
I wanted to make a cinematic Style picture. I have shot my model using cinema light instead of flash.
Then I work hard on lightining as I were a DP from a movie.
Almost all my picture are worked like that like if we were in the middle of a film and I had to find a nice atmosphere to please the director
A simple picture where I just wanted to focus on soft color and skin tones :)
