HELLO!!!! I wanted to share some photobashes I've made!! If you don't know what photobashing is, it's basically a collage! Except in this case, it's with people's faces. All of the characters I made are all yours. :3

In order they are:
1. Mason Rolle (Operation Do-Over). This is when he's 17 and in timeline 1. This was my third attempt at a photobash. It came out okay, but I didn’t know how to shade the shirt and I forgot the little beard I usually give him.
2. Parker Elias (The Unteachables). I think my 4th or 5th attempt? The shading in his face feels off but I like it overall. Also took really long because of how many people I used and edits I made to their faces.
3. Carter Peregrine (Snoop). Second favorite. I made him after taking a LONG break after Parker. I wasn't planning on his hair being so dark but Extract Drawing on IbisPaintX had different plans I guess.
4. Donovan Curtis (Ungifted). MY FAVORITE!!!!! I literally finished him 30 minutes ago. I had him planned out for a while. I don’t like his hair that much and I think I made the bandages too dark, but I still love how he looks!
Be warned that they MAY go into the Uncanny Valley. I mean, I making an entire face with parts of other people's faces! How can that not be uncanny?

Hi, Aly,

This is something new for me. I'm not sure I agree with your interprtations, but I defend your right to have them. e.g. Donovan. But Parker is exactly Parker! And Mason is growing on me. How is this done? Collage? -----Gordon Korman-----

Thank you!!! :3 Basically, I just take photos of already existing people and just mash them together! If that makes any sense, haha.

I made a video that shows me making them! :)

Honestly, Parker and Donovan came out really well, especially considering how hard it is to blend different faces naturally. The slightly uncanny look actually fits the photobash style in a weirdly cool way.

Thank you very much!! :3 The first one I did (Mitchell Worth) came out really choppy so I wasn't very confident at first lol. I honestly really like Parker and Donovan too. I'm thinking of going back in and shading Parker's face a bit better though
