* Human Hatchling *

I'm not quite sure what to say about this one and I'm still not even sure why I decided to make it in the first place. Maybe the egg just seemed a little off center in the original image so the picture appeared to be lacking something.

I had previously taken the picture of the nest and then a picture of myself lying down on the floor. I then cut my body out of the background and paste it onto the nest image. I paste another copy of my body and layered it under the previous one. I then turned that one a very dark color and grew and reshaped it a bit to look a little like some shading. To give it even more shading effect I stole some of the color behind the egg and lightly brushed it around the human which made him look more nestled in the fibers.

So why do I always use pictures of me for these Graphicals? 
Well, who else do you think would do it?
