Congratulations for 1st

Wonderful effect, really nice entry. Good work and good luck! (Excellent depth of field)

Almost flawless! Aside from the head, the use of the grass brush is very nice. Very convincing result. I just have a suggestion to slightly blur the edge beyond the ear, it's too sharp (especially when you create a shallow DOF like that). High score for sure

Really wonderful and so nice ...GL for you author

love it

Great job!

Thanks for the comments Fixed the sharp edges.

Great idea and execution. I especially like the cracks. Good luck!

awesome!!!

great entry... youre a real whiz at toning

Great great job Author...

brilliant work ....... all the best to u ..........

Great job author,really really good.Few minor observations,lighter part of the head needs a bit more shading,now when u watch high resolution looks a bit flat.And i don't understand step 10 in your SBS,how did u make grass,used some image,brushes?!?...Any how this is fabulous work and i wish u best of luck.

Thanks erathion. I fixed the SBS(used the grass brush) and I slightly added some shade to the image to give it some depth.

oh, well, that's predictable and I was right when I decided to give up joining this contest. I had the same idea as you but I didn't start when you submitted your work. Congratulations, you deserve that!

Thanks langstrum

cool!

very nice. but seeing as how you didnt do very much it doesnt feel so original. good job on ship and w/e that thing is.

Can't use the background Image... find CC images. read the site rules and guidlines etc the site you took the bacground from says "he creators of the images retain all rights to their images"

Nice idea good luck!

Annabat I created the image. "The creators of the images retain all rights to their images". I did not take the background image from the site, please read the discription and sbs. Background image was created using the software.

good sbs, nice entry, i'd like to know where to get terragen!

I already posted the website. Check under sources used for this entry. Thanks

Here is the URL just in case you can't find it.

http://www.planetside.co.uk/content/view/15/27/

If you created it in another software you also have to have and sbs for that part as well. You have to sbs for all parts of the image.

It is impossible to give the sbs for that software. You will understand once you use it. I would have to provide over a hundred steps in the sbs. I will try my best to put the important parts in step 26. Thanks

nice

wow! great color scheme. good work

wow author looks like you're great with this software!!!! You rock!!!

Thanks

GR8 work.....

Pretty cool image. Maybe some more contrast for the background to fit better with the spase ship and station. Good luck!

nice

Update: Contrast fixed

very creative
