My stuff > My contest entries, Edit entry

very nice work! Welcome to PXL!!! HOpe you have as much fun as I have!!!

Ya enjoying PXL
@Lamantine: thanks for the directions. I have submitted the SBS

Welcome to Pxleyes! Very nice and dramatic work for the first entry; I really like the mood and the colors you used here. GL!

very clever and nice work, love the mood. may be you can put more shadow on the left birds or make it less white . Good luck author

Great first entry! The blending is almost perfect, the low range or color works well on the mood and the idea is creative. Your style brings the fresh air to the competition and I see the potential in you work. I have few suggestions about the content of that image: since you want to show that she wants to fly, the spatial feel on the image is very important. All these birds are going to fly away or just flied not far from her. If you could add some other birds with different sizes, in different place of the DOF (depth of field), the topic will be emphasized more. Because she wears the dark clothes, it's better to make the brighter background. In your case, it's still okay because she's distinguishable, but if there are few bright clouds in front of her (background), this will be better.
One more thing maybe you've already known or not. The SBS is mandatory in the case of the source contest like this one, but in the theme contest without given source, the SBS is not mandatory, it's up to authors.
Wish you the best of luck with this entry, very well done, keep it up!

Thanks guys
@langstrum: Ya the extra birds idea is really good. The BG was brighter....but I reduced the brightness to make the ground look far above the valley. And I have submitted the SBS
Thanks for all suggestion and wishes I will try to update if possible.

Smart! Chaplin vs Hitler, right?

Ya you guessed it right

Great idea author...just few minor suggestions...there is visible white halo around the hat...also edges of the Adolf/Charlie are to strong and sharp...u could use nice soft blur brush and made them a bit softer.Knife demands different shadow and u could work a bit more on shadows bellow the hands...Sorry for the nit picks author but idea is amazing and would be shame to loose points for minor issues...Best of luck

Excellent idea, but fancy doing that to such a beautiful baby.....

Ya erathion.....you are right. I am soon going to update it. Thanks for suggestions

He looks so sad ... you have really given him a personality!

Ya...I remembered a scene from Toy Story 3; when woody is going to leave whole gang back, when bullseye follows him and that time he has that sad look on his face. And also as I have kept his neck a bit downward, it makes his sad look appropriate to that posture.

Very cute, I knew what it was right away before even reading the title (Just bought Toy Story 3 myself hehe). Great job!

TOY STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!

Ya thanks.....I am glad you guys like it.

so cool work...best of luck author
