Drawing on collage

After printing out some of my photographs, I decided to begin drawing machine parts onto the images. This was an experiment to see how it would look to combine hand drawn and collage. I thought the effect was interesting, but the hand drawn element doesn't communicate correctly the idea of a mechanical man (all be it only a representational one!) I will perhaps use these in some full collage to see how they look, however I am beginning to feel that the photographs collaged in Photoshop are more what I am looking for.

I was really pleased with my previous photo collages in Photoshop, so I am of the mind to continue in that direction. I had initially intended to make a collage out of my paintings and textures, however, I feel my recent set of photographs were so successful, it would be a shame not to use them.
