You can have a full body portrait but It will be harder and you will have to do a lot more work but if you don't do a full body portrait is more easier because you would have to put in less work and you would be able to just focus on the shoulders and the face. 

Dramatic Type

This is dramatic because everything is upside down and its curved. Even though the type isn't upside down it still fits in.

It looks like its inside a mirror it is made of gold and it looks metallic.

What influenced me was the different types of hybrids and the different amount of colours (patterns) that was being used. I liked walking around and seeing the different types of animals I also liked taking pictures of the different types of patterns.
