Congrats!!

Good image, but SBS is incomplete.

Really nice! Shows excellent creativity! Glad we finally get to see it!

I don't see the old photo effect can help your work. Despite of that, this is still an excellent entry, you should get the top 3 places if you were able to submit your entry. Good luck, author

Good job!

Great entry. Agree with langstrum, it won if you was able to submit it. Anyway It is still top 3 entry.Good luck

Love the sepia tone in this entry.... good luck, nice an creative...

thank you all. i'm glad you like it.

fantastic use of source, this is very creative, author. love the sepia tones plus the old photo look with the creases, adds a realistic touch. extra points for the 'steampunk' look!

This is excellent work. The effect of age and wrinkles is very believable.

well done!!!

Fantastic work...good luck author

Wow, I'd love to see the PSD file on that

very nice , voted against myself here..... lovely work! good luck

killer image, great work!

you could make the flames a little more hehehe, kidding, it's perfect

Nice work with the shading, I like the claws too. The lowest part of the tail on the left side can do with a bit more masking and the turn around the tower looks like the dragon has a knack there. If you make the turn from the tail shorter, it will look more natural curved. But well done for the rest! Good luck!

Edit: tail is fixed, including the masking

Great job

thanks for the tips wazowski. i believe i fixed the turning problem of the tail (you was absolutely right), but i'm sorry, i can't tell where is the masking problem.. anyways i hope it's better now.

it seems like your dragon is burning its wing, at least that's what i see. otherwise, i like the idea, good luck to you

Wow... \o/!...

Fantastic work...Few minor observation...fire is just a bit strong and unnatural...and i think that the wings are to low...They have to start in the line of front legs...Beside that...fantastic thing...good luck author

not an awesome entry................ But Its an extra ordinary... Fantastic one......!!!! claps for you...!!

Flame could be better blended in Multiply mode...

My Favorite....!!

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

i tried different blending modes and different settings for the fire, i was most satisfied with this one.

better without the fire

Really nice chop Author! Well done

thank you.

aaarrggghghh, I've set fire to my bloody wing !!! lol Nice well done

nope. the wings are behind the flames...

nice!

In the top 2 for sure, congratulation in advance

nice!!!

Well I can definitely see where you got your idea from. I'm just wondering if it is copy-righted? You're probably fine but can you please upload a high res version?

Great! I especially like the dragon. But even though it is really great, I prefer not to have this vase in my house Good luck!

wow!!this peice of work is best so far

I don't think there's a problem using the old PST sources unless I'm told otherwise they should be okay. I liked your entry the first time I saw it and I think it fits this contest just fine. Just don't ask me to water your flowers!

thanks for youre response, and don't worry, i'll take care of my beloved flowers myself.
