Eyelids!

Hey guys!

I decided to put on some eyelids on my car to give it a more meaner look... I personally think its turned out awesome!

Had to prime then paint them!







P.S Will put up some more photos with SLR!

Post a bigger picture of the headlight alone. It is hard to make out in your current pictures, but is it a two-leveled eyelid? It looks like you have a translucent lower eyelid covered by an opaque upper eyelid. Or is it just an illusion produced by reflected light?

P.S. The general tone and feel of your photos make them look like LOMOgraphy of some sort. Was it shot on expired film and then developed in expired developer? (And then printed on expired photopaper, perhaps?)
