Nice work, well done
That's probably where I should have put it, now you mention it.You were absolutely right, Jolly! -

Nice work, well done
I thought of that, but by then I had already put it in, and I was trying a "brush" technique to do the blood, rather than a "layer" so then I couldn't erase it without erasing the picture.Like it is surreal, you could shun the blood ; it was not necessary in my opinion ...
And also I am not clever enough to save previous versions of the composition,
so there is no way to go back. 
I will have to do another picture. But you make very good points.
'Duplicate Layer' and then add the new painted effects to the duplicated layer.I thought of that, but by then I had already put it in, and I was trying a "brush" technique to do the blood, rather than a "layer" so then I couldn't erase it without erasing the picture.

This preserves the original layer unblemished.
Hope that helps
See, you're very clever too. I ended up duplicating the layer after I did the blood (I do have my original .png "cutout" of the model in a clean version, so that's okay - I'm not entirely absent-minded), but I should have duplicated the entire merged crux model (girl, cross, nails). I will have to remember to do things in the right order next time. I got rather excited that the model was working so well, and that I had a cross in my files that seemed to fit.'Duplicate Layer' and then add the new painted effects to the duplicated layer.
This preserves the original layer unblemished.

Anyway, I can always try a new version, or a new pic. I should put the model in CMCK for others to use as well. She is rather nice.
I do appreciate any pointers and advice. I have a tendency to rattle on in my responses to it, but I am always happy to get it. The duplicating layer thing is great advice, and I will try to remember it.
Cheers, Bob.
Thank you.Of course that you can erase the blood : you come back to the initial pic (the girl alone) and you catch her arms with the" lasso" and you pass them to your manip ...
I had not thought of that.

And you've just the nails to add ...Thank you.
This has been an interesting discussion, and in response I have done a couple of reworks of the Surreal Crux piece. I know some may say it's "less classic" this way, but we're not erasing that version either.
I'm not sure which of these people will like better. In the first one, our model appears to float above the cross a bit, perhaps transcending it, although her posture and expression still suggest she is attached to it in some way. The second one is a bit more straightforward, but with a slightly unreal looking cross. You can decide which, if either, you like.

I liked the earlier one but I am just Tree

You're welcome!
You're right, Eul, no 1 is lovely and mystical!
A new avatar is for me a remarkable and rare milestone.
Congratulations, Wragg!
