UPDATE: TONED DOWN THE LIPS AND GAVE HER HAIR A GOLDEN HUE
I know the movie came out wo months ago, but It's one of my favorites. Plus Jessica Alba is really hot. I just wanted to give it that cool colorized style a la the movie. The upper legs were sooo hard because of that white splash effect, but I managed. That part still looks a tab messy. The hair was also somewhat hard. I colorized:
+The skin (obviously)
+The lips
+Her eye (blue, really hard to see)
And there is a brightness/contrast layer for her hair to give it a sorta glam look.
****NOTE: The Orignal is slightly different because the one that I manipulated was a custome one made on the sin city website, and I neglected to save it. So I had to go make another to show you all the origianl.****
I DONT WANT THIS IN THE PHOTOGRAPHY SECTION BECAUSE IT IS NOT MY PHOTOGRAPH, IT IS DIGITAL ART BECAUSE I ASSEMBLED IT FROM SCRATCH ON THE SIN CITY WEBSITE.
And to big fat guy, please don't delete all the 'off-topic' posts. I don't care if people talk about the movie.

Oh and I wasn't going for realism, if you've seen the movie you know It's not realistic. Everything is sorta over the top.
As for the handgun: I didn't even touch that, it was already like that as you can tell in the original.

Awesome. Simply stunning. The modifications are pretty good too :P You got her skin tone perfect. But i'd prefer to see her with her natural brown hair over the blond.
Off topic part: I have one of her posters in my room from Sin City. I lub it so much.
