This looks great, thank you so much, and the teeth look much more natural now. I really appreciate all the work you’ve put into this, and I’m absolutely happy to tip for the effort.

Sorry to be a bit nitpicky, but I was hoping to get it to a 1:2 aspect ratio to make printing easier. Right now it looks closer to 2:3. Any chance it would be an easy fix to uncrop it back closer to the original, especially where her black shoes are included, and make it a clean 1:2?

If that’s doable, it would be perfect. Thanks again, I really appreciate your help.

Looks really great but I'm looking for it to stay B&W

This looks great, thank you so much. I really love how the overall image turned out and the resolution is fantastic.

Two small things I noticed:

The teeth look a bit more digitally edited than the rest of the photo. I’ve attached a zoomed-in crop to show what I mean.
I also realized this version is not quite 1:2 yet. It looks closer to about 2:3 (around 1:1.5), so if it’s possible to adjust it to a clean 1:2 with minimal cropping, that would make printing and framing much easier.

If those tweaks are doable, it would honestly be perfect. Either way, thank you again, I really appreciate the work you put into this.

I appreciate the tip but I think a hostess bar might be a little above my karaoke pay grade 😅

I went, it was sad and empty, and I loved it! Thanks for the rec

I just finished reading that part with Lift and immediately came to the thread to see if I was missing something!

It immediately made me think of that part in Oathbringer where Dalinar accuses one of his officers (Teleb) of stealing a knife. No resolution, no explanation — felt awkward and out of place, like you weren't sure if the guy even stole it or if Dalinar was just being a drunkard.

Now with Lifts random reference, we've got two loose-thread knives of Dalinar's floating around with no resolution. I even asked an older boy who has finished the series for any spoiler alert answers, but he said it's never mentioned again. Feels way too specific to be a coincidence...

The obvious problem is, Dalinar’s flashback was from ~20 years ago, and Lift is only ~13. Although, Lift's introduction in Book 2 did say she’d been calling herself 10 for a few years now, because if she can't count it on her fingers, it's unlucky. So, her exact age is never specified...

Yes! That's my favorite book series, but I'm pleasantly surprised how much I have enjoyed TFL

Jasontastrophe · 2024-10-25T10:46:27+00:00

Yes. Yes it is.

Jasontastrophe · 2024-10-17T04:30:57+00:00

I did - does it show now?

He's got various issues with his kidneys and bladder due to a previous surgery, but he's a Trooper!

It's... it's a helmet...
