I'm all about handhelds, shrunken or not. They're the main thing. I don't get SWs in jars -- it's all about the interaction!
I couldn't agree more! Proper interaction between a doll sized woman and a giant's hand (including the fingers) seems to have become a forgotten art. And I'm talking collage using
actual 'human' subjects of course.
We rarely get anything better that a tiny woman stood on a giant's palm, or if she's larger, seated upon it. Neither of which is very challenging to create. But usually it's just a woman placed in giant surroundings next to various oversized objects (or in a jar or a hamster cage), and that seems to qualify as a sw collage.
It's more challenging which most people don't choose to take the time to create. You have to paste the hand, the tiny on top of the hand, then the hand again, removing everything that is behind the tiny, leaving only what would be in front. Then, as in the below image, another hand, then the leg of the tiny and another of the hand, removing everything but the thumb. Along with the appropriate background, then you have a collage, not just pasting a picture of a woman on a background, which is easy and quick.
Or this simpler one with just three layers:
Of course, part of the challenge, regardless of your skill at photoshopping, is selecting images that go together with the hues matching, not contrasting. I see so many of those that look terrible, such as in the quickies below:
