Pretty cool.

I agree with your wife. It's good!

Yeah, it's kind of cool.. doesn't float my boat in a big way but I can see how it could for someone else I think it's a good portrait.

Well done, I especially like the eyes. I dont like to sound picky but I would remove the small piece of black in his shirt along the bottom of the frame. Its amazing what can be accomplished in photoshop...clearly I havent scratched the surface yet!

I think it wold look good in a frame in the hallway. remove the text and hand write the signature, and you can say you drew it.

I like it.... was it simple to do?

Well, to be honest. I was playing around after taking some quick shots of my son. I was playing with different levels, found the look I liked saved the image. I then played with the filters. Hitting charcoal, kind of liked it, then played with the settings and this is what I came up with. I really dont know how to play around with PS. Like I said, I am still learning and learn something everytime I have the time to play around with it. Thanks to all
