Xhaonroi - Photobooth pics

I've decided to put this under photo manipulation since there was more time spent in Photoshop assembling and editing this piece rather than the picture taking part. I hope that's reason enough for it to be placed here. Anyway...

and I came across a wig that looked damn near perfect for a cosplay of my Kingdom Hearts OC, Xhaonroi. So what did we do? Buy it, of course (despite our lack of paychecks ) and do a mini photo shoot with my camera phone! Yay~! I decided to try out the whole photobooth style with some of the pics this time around. You can find the awesome tutorial here: [link]

I did a few things different (for example, instead of messing with curves, I messed with the generic render>lighting effects, lol) but it still looks ok. Also, please don't mind the backgrounds in several of the pictures. It's my bedroom and I really wasn't in the mood to edit out all of the things on my walls and my curtains. If I had more time to do this (it's 2 in the morning already ) then I might have gon out of my way to clear all that stuff out. But I didn't.... and I'm rambling now. The coins and other accessories in the pic were found randomly on google. I decided to go with Chinese coins since Xhaonroi is kinda supposed to be Chinese (despite being from Halloween Town).

A couple of other fun things to point out in the photos:
- The names of the two skulls I am holding are Louis and Leopold.
- Yes, the book in my hand is Twilight.
- The red fan was a gift from cause she's awesome like that.
- Yes, I'm holding a turtle. His name is Jake (as in Jake Marshall from Phoenix Wright). He's the best and I love him so much! ^^

This was really fun to do! I hope you guys enjoy it as well. ^^
