Hey hey, smdubin,

I really like the stark contrast in the firs of the 'death's head' series. Very dramatic and gets the message across in no uncertain terms. :}

I was ambivalent about your first go because that Twin Towers image has been see so many times that it struck me as a visual clich? misused for your message, not to mention copyright issues.

What if you had the skull with a lite cigarette in its mouth, with an ash the length of the cigarette about to fall...with smoke coming out its "nose" (or lack there of)... and images of a teenagers in the shadows of the eye sockets..don't think it would need words either....all B/W except for the teenagers..in muted colors..

Just an idea.

Hey smdubin. I don't know whether you would be interested but there is a set of freeware smoke brushes by Kevin Kleine in the Adobe Studio Exchange. They are called simply Smoke.abr.
