 Well I went and bought one of the woodys on the first day of the challenge but it sat in multiple positions around my house until the last day when I realized I needed to shoot something cause I had spent 3 bucks on this little stick man and I didn't want to waste it. Anyways I got this inspiration while I was shooting him in different positions in my home made studio and I saw this "got milk?" sticker and this image came to my mind. It took a few minutes to figure out something to use for a cup, but then I saw my tool set and this is actually a socket from my socket set taped onto the woody's hand. The "milk" mustache is some white-out, and the text is actually a sticker in the foreground. Its shot on a piece of posterboard, which has become my standard "studio" and used my 420ex bounced to the upper left of the frame. Not much post processing: shot in jpeg, cropped, levels, hue/saturation, brightness/contrast, usm, sharpen, border, resize, save for web.

not sure, but I think this one might end up with a DQ. I think you should have made the "got milk" sign instead of photoshopping it. good luck, hope it doesnt get the DQ.
