A sensible manipulation author. Good job!

WONDERFULLY DONE!!! (the henna hair is AWESOME)

thank you!

great execution!!!

Nice work, author! I would put back just a hint of eye wrinkle at the edge to give a bit more realism. Really well done, though!

nice work on this.

Thank you for your kind words everyone! @pixelkid Thank you, I didn't even notice that and I have made some adjustments! I hope this is better ( I actually copied the other eye, because the original one was kinda weird). Thanks again.

gratz I saw it right away this was gonna hit high .

Nice color match.

Good Blending.

Cheers guys

very nice blend, texture match is excellent!!!

Very good job on this one, great match of skins.

I appreciate it, thanks again everyone!

Not bad, but the face needs the same type of shadow as the source pic.

Thank you, I will try to adjust it.

Ummm, where is the back of the horse? Wouldn't it show on the right side of the man?

Itgik, look at the source pic.

The horse is standing behind the man with his head facing to the right. Author, I think you did a wonderful job of this. The face fits into the photo perfectly.

Thanks guys! It's actually funny, because when I was done with this picture, I thought "Hey where is the back of the horse!"

Well, a nice comeback-entry you have here author. Best of luck..

Thank you sir

Congrats for 3rd super job.

Wow, did not expect that, cheers guys!

Congrats

good work it very nice but i think the grass should have more brightness to blend with the others

Thanks hosam, you are right I will do some adjustment... After looking at it in high res I noticed some error here and there as well... so thanks

It's SOOOOOOOOO cool ,really I like it..^_^..and I wish to be able to do one soon..Awesome work man!!

author, you should match up the tree shadows ( the light angle police will get ya) and a horizontal flip to the Sky might make the light source match better... (not that it matters in a surreal).. if you brush the edges of the book with a soft blur brush it will help it blend better (IMHO of course)

and yes.. this has been done before, but it's always good to practice.. (you may want to warp the grass line to align with the bend of the book page.. currently it causes a flattening effect) very good work.. you should be very proud

I need a class on shadow, I know this wouldn't be right (I am expecting mossyb and cmyk to remind me )

Thank you for the suggestions and comments, always nice

nice work author..

Nice choose of your images though it's not a new concept but it's worth doing it. Best of luck author!

Good work author !

Good work & Nice presentation !!

Thanks guys!

the shadow of the tree to the right ................. my opinion is that the shadow shouldn't be all over the book ...................... i hope u see what i mean !
