Alter Ego

I've been admiring these digis from Kenny K for a while and finally succumbed last week. I thought these two went well together like a night and day version or alter ego. At the front the all american sweetheart with what she really wishes to be behind her (thats my interpretaton anyhow lol!)

They are Vikki Lee Vicious and Rock Chick by Kenny K which I've used paint shop pro to merge (I've wrote a tutorial here how to do it n PSP) Images are coloured with promarkers and details have been added with my trusty quickie glue pen - silver foil on the buckles, earrings, guitar and I've used a clear sakura stardust pen on the rock chick only to gve her some sparkle which you can see clearer in the bottom two pics. Wording is a dymo and pink paper is from DCWV rockstar stack.
When was colouring this I constantly had a song I dont actually know in my head but it goes "She was an american girl" and its the bit in silence of the lambs which the senators daughter is singing in her car. (Google tells me its American Girl by Tom Petty!)
