Yes Steve, slipped it has. Perhaps a fresh growth called for.

Thanks Steve, Interesting, I had originally flipped the body, but then decided against it.

Re: Challenge 528: Make me a man
Yes Steve I did get into a bit of a muddle with the beardline - I am glad you liked the stubble - afterwards I thought it might have been a bit too blue - but the bit I was proudest of was the eyebrows.
For once I was aiming for subtlety so maybe underplayed my hand,

Three cheers for Shay for being such a good sport

neatly trimmed beard from srawland, finely sculpted by its owner. My only query is - and this is going to sound odd - whether it's just too feminine. Does that make sense when discussing beards?



Everyone is entitled to his own opinion. However, the fellow I got the idea for the beard from never wanted for female company.

Re: Challenge 528: Make me a man
I would just like to take this opportunity to thank every single person including you Steve for giving me this chance to see what options i can look like.
I know it isnt everday that what I have asked for happens which is why when this came up I wanted to grab the chance. It has taken me alot of years to pluck up the courage to make the first step and now I am looking forward to a happy life with my partner in a body i have so longed for.
All of the transformations here have been stunning, some made me smile others I thought I do like that i can see myself like that and others I thought Hmmm maybe not me.
But overall STUNNING I loved what you all did for me, thank you from thd bottom of my heart

It fits well, but seems just too neat at the edges; it's more like a false beard that has been glued on. Maybe try smudging down some individual strands, particularly below the lip.


You are quite right Steve. I got so carried away by the human aspect of this challenge that I completely forgot to treat it as a Photoshop one as well. I must confess to lack of attention and laziness on my part.
