Did you know that if a butterfly flaps it's wings in the amazon that some little pikeys probably nicked your car from outside your house...

EDIT: Thanks to snowmask for the DD and thanks to davidroman for suggesting it, much appreciated;) Also thanks to everyone for their favs and feedback:D

Daily Deviation

Given 2009-11-28

A mere glance should suffice in establishing as to why The Butterfly Effect by ~STiX2000 stands so highly commendable. Rarely do graphic elements and ultra realism come together in a fusion so congenital, resulting in something truly irresistible and refreshing. (Suggested by ~davidroman and Featured by ^snowmask)

Simply stunning mate, so many different beautiful elements that come together paradoxically so smoothly but with a sense of chaos. And your attention to light really is impressive.

Is the little nick on the bridge of the nose intentional or a smudge?

Cheers man! much appreciated. yeah there's a few places where it looks like smudges alright, i threw down some of the background before i painted the face so there's some areas were it shows through.
