    wow, that's pretty nice, though the green in their leigh, or whatever it's called, is a little too uniform for my liking.

    I wont lie. That picture is scary.

    I don't know, it might just be me, but those things around their necks just seem to lack depth, it was there in the black and white picture but it got lost when the color was added. It seems like the green was added and got brighter at the bottom to show a light from there, but the individual flowers just don't seem real.

    Hmm I see what you mean, I might be able to fix that... oh I didn't notice the flowers in there. Looked like a normal green lei. In order to fix that much more it'd take alot more work.

    Maybe they aren't flowers, I'm not entirely sure, judging by the picture. But that is just what it seemed like to me.

    Well regardless of the flaws, the thing that came out best to my surprise was the man and women's clothes. Look closely.
