Honestly, never thought I would be imagining a shot dead Hungry Hungry Hippo!

This should be place in a museum..... nice pice of art, and good use of the source..... good luck!
Beautiful work author...nice mix of 2d and 3d...well done
Nice 3D work in this photoshop contest, author. Several of your sbs steps are impossible to read, tho. Try using a color with more contrast to the background, and larger type.
really fun... except hippos live in rivers, not on the savannah
this is freaking great. i really cannot find a thing wrong with it.
Kyricom, that's why he's hungry, hungry,
and dead.
I know it's hard to find any suitable Hungry Hippo photographs. Excellent creative use of resources at your hand. Overall a nice looking piece of work. I used to like playing this game with my children, many moons ago.
I really like your idea and the image itself is really well done. Just a few suggestions for you...perhaps if you could dodge some of the newly added blades of foliage in front of the hippo to vary the luminosity...giving some highlights etc. This would help keep them looking the same and sorta flat. Also...there's a visible hard line edge of the hippo's neck that can be seen...maybe cover that up or brush it out. If you could also possibly remove the real soft fringe around the front of hippo...it's a bit distracting and doesn't really need to be there. Sorry to nitpick...trying to help.
Thank's all for the comments, I had a lot of fun making this entry! pixelkid regrettably I missed the opportunity to re-submit with some of your suggested changes before competition close, I agree especially that some finer attention to detail on the grass, matching the 3d presence of the rendered figure would have drastically improved the image, a suggestion I will certainly keep in mind for next time. Thanks guys, p.s ichappell hopefully no one shows this hungry hippo to their kids!!
Howdie stranger!
