I thought up the idea for this collage while looking through a magazine filled with pictures of impossibly skinny women.
I've never really done one of these before. It looks jagged because the collage is supposed to have a magazine cut out feel to it.  Click the thumbnail for a larger view. Time: about 2 hours Sources: http://vogued.nu/starway Song Inspiration: Tegan & Sara - You Wouldn't Like Me This is my very first collage so comments and CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, especially, would be much appreciated. |

wow! I love this!
The idea for it is awesome too; it's very inspirational. I know that when I look at a magazine for your average teenage girl (like me) my self esteem, not to meantion my IQ, decrease so much that both end up negative.  Yes I love this. I like how the eyes are covered in a symbolic way and I like the textures too! Good job! |

I forgot I made this topic. lol
Thank you all so much for your kind words! You're right about Adrienne Curry and Kiera Knightly, btw. Good eye! I also used Gemma Ward, Zhang Zi Yi, and Paris Hilton. I made a mini version of it into an LJ layout: See it here. |
