The Shawshank Redemption, Andy's posters WIP DONE!!

Re: The Shawshank Redemption, Andy's posters WIP, advice and opinions needed

While I don't think its fair to hold you to a small, blury screencap, maybe this would help:

To me, it seems like the one in the movie was even a tad darker, but also Raquel's face still had some more red or cyan in it, as you can still make out the auburn in her hair.

Also, it might be just do to sizing, but it appears your pics are slighty smooshed vertically.

Here's another one with your pic at the bottom, skewed to roughly match the screencap:

Again, just a tad more fleshy in the movie posters skin. It could be a touch more red/cyan or even yellow too. You can particularly see the touch of red on her chest bone.

Finally, this also shows the darkness of her cheeks in the first one as opposed to the bottom one.

All in all, your nearly there man.

Yep . .I see it now. I totally agree. Maybe I should keep digging for a decent pic, or start doing some assembly from multple ones.

but, should we call it thumbs up on Rita and Marilyn?

I would say 100% or close to it on Marilyn.

To continue to be nit picky/annoying, I think Rita might actually be cropped more closely on the right. See how that matting almost looks like there are two vertical white bars? It looks like the movie one is cropped along the first bar while your pic includes both.

Maybe . . .

Here's the latest.
Rita's all cropped up nicely. I think we can call her finished.

I was able to find one other Raquel pic that more closely matched the look of the film prop, but I had to combine it with another image to get the edges. Good news is the lady is a bit more High res and clean, and the blue sky was a better match.
A bit more tweaking and we'll have it.
