Artwork for the story
Missing actor on intergalactic secret mission.
Chuck screencap found at
colonel-taisa's LJ. Pic of kid found in hairstyling book (sorry, no idea who he really is but even my inklings looked at the pic and said, "Hey, that looks just like Chuck!" and thus the story was born).
ETA: I had to tweak Chuck quite a bit to bring him out clearer in the foreground the way I wanted. For the tech-geeks out there, this was a simple matter of multiple layers and layer masks, changing the colour balance of the midtones and highlights, then blending the layers at various opacities until they made 'sense' visually they way I wanted.
Then I put the boy in, using a digital snapshot of the book photo, cropped slightly from the original with contrast tweaked slightly. I added a 'signature' done by his fictional publicist ;-) and a white border. PhotoShop for all, including typesetting. /eta
