This is a scratchboard piece I did with permission/license from the photographer. The intense stare of the cougar really grabbed me and I thought it would look great in scratchboard. It's one of my personal favorites.
this image would be near perfect if you rescanned, or took this into photoshop and increased the contrast and unsharped the mask.. The black has lost it's tone which can be corrected... your work details would then shine,, and you will GET MANY 10's!
