    <div align="center">Photomanip, totally different from what i normally do. Felt like expressing darkness and dread.

    I’m still stitching up the stabs you left, weaving in and out slowly.
    I grow accustomed to the piercing flesh, and find evil in the holy.
    And still, I see the line between the stars, your scars, and mine.
    And as this coarse thread pulls, I feel the veins of the frozen.
    Stay in coma. It’s the only defense we have left.

    The hair coloring is a bit odd as it doesn't really go all the way to his skin, but hair is always tricky in anything... Good stuff. Might check out that band, who do they sound like?

    Thanks, i couldn't get the hair quite right for some reason.

    The band is awesome, don't know who to compare them to.
    It's an Emo-Core band, atleast their older stuff is, so it's like Melodic, Post-Hardcore IMO.

    Also I want to say I think it works very well as a vertical tag. I'll definitely check that band out sometime though.

    1: Area around the eye is a blueish color while the rest of the face has a red tint. The area immediately around the eye should actually be more red than everywhere else since there seems to be a red light emitting from it.
    2: Ear is badly colored and cut, very choppy and still uncolored parts left.
    3: a little bit of non colored skin that bugged me.
    4: Feathered shoulder doesn't really work well, if possible undo the feathering and make sure the cut looks good.
    5: Random red dot? there are a few other ones that are much smaller all over the face.
    6: Not sure what you were going for here. Were you trying to erase his mouth completely? The found line looks rather awkward.
    7: Doesn't look like it is actually in the eye socket, some fading on the edges could change this.
    8: Looks very strange, as if you forgot to include the other ear in the cut.
    I didn't mention the hair since it was previously addressed. The shirt looks rather strange as well, looks like you just painted red onto both the shirt and tie without really thinking about it. The textures on the face aren't very appealing, when using the Photoshop textures I find that it is best to mask them and blend them in some way. You might want to consider looking up on a tutorial for burnt or torn skin. The background looks alright, but I feel it could be much better and expanded upon.

    Sorry didn't mean to dishearten you, I just had an urge to make this long post in hope it would help you with future manipulations.
