It's pretty cool! Although hard to tell the face is the kid's. Maybe if you put more of his face into it... Lighting + colour is nice, looks like it's actually there :D

I tried about 4-5 variations before i came up with what i got. as you can see i had to soften and blend some of the original trains features (especially the cheeks) in order for the boys face to show through. it wasn't really that hard, i just need to learn more of the PS shortcuts to make things go faster. i didnt print it out, but i sent it to my friend.

nice, but you could have used some burn to make the shadows more defined, more rounder in a sense XD

thanks for the tip, i'll give it a try and see how it comes out. my friend loved it and plans on getting it printed out nice for his son.
