in step 5 i see a very intriguing character .. but it is your vision.. good luck, unique image

I made alot of different things using the source image, one of them would be the : itruguing character" seen in step 5. Also i made alot of flowers and a few more animals. I just did not want to put all of them in the image. As that would be overkill in my eyes. Personally i like it best, this way.

And for step5: thatsjust a bonus, wich i wanted to show aswell. i just put it in there in 2 seconds and added the text to thank people for taking the time and watch the step by step.

Thanks for commenting.

To be honest I like the character in step 5 mentioned by Drivenslush (thnx for noticing that) more probably because it brings the image in a better balance. Now at the middle left side of the image you have a whole lot of water where nothing happens, there's nothing to see yet it drags your attention away fro the things you created.

I choose to have this setup, because for me this gives a peacefull feeling. No stress, no chaos just space and creatures flying swimming walking. Doing their own thing.

That's what it means to me and thats how i want people to see it. Even tho it can be hard to see it this way, because the world we are living in is made into an often stressfull, chaotic world.

Keyword: "often".

Thanks for your comment.

its very red

Good SBS. Too bad there's no hi res image.

looks good on high res , i think it would have more impact if the stork is closer

good luck

As gornats said the image would pop more if it was closer by but this is a great take on the source image, i think its funny and altho a cliche its still original i think. Another few things that wll improve it is the edge of the stork, theres a darkline on the stork on top of the neck towards the wings. the back of the wings doesnt look so nice this way perhaps you can draw/smudge with a fine brush the feathers a little back, to make it look more natural. i know it looks on the original the same but with the original background it doesnt pop so much and blends in well.

I was in Vocational Agriculture in high school. We had about 50 laying hens and when they layed, it was very noisy and sounded especially painful. I bet that they wished that it would happen this way! Well, upon further consideration, it would be nice if it worked this way for everyone!

ill sign for that downoffthedragon!

Thanks for all the comments, and i realy appreciate the time you have taken to leave the comment; So i can improve the image quality overall. Also thanks for telling and sharing the story it calls upon you. It means alot to me.

For the image, I totaly agree with the (lazy) cutout of the stork. When making the image i was tired ( but no excuse ). At the moment i can not find any time to improve on the image. I am sorry for this, but thats the way things are.

I just had to reply and give you people a big thank you.
So once again, Thanks for the great comments.
