A long time ago I learned how to paint using oil on canvas. Now, I don't know if I can do it now...

you got the ticket to next round... good job buddy

Good job again, knew it was you

Wow..nice!..love this piece of art..GL author

• Thanks for the faves and comments, everyone. Glad you like it. Still need a lot of improvements IMHO, my entry was a last 'rush' hour before the deadline. I couldn't put ALL my imaginations into that piece.

@ Erikuri, thanks for sharing your thoughts, I do painting with oils, acrylics and pastels. But nowadays, it's not qualified with the industries' standard workflows. We need digital painters, matte painters who could done this kind of art in hours or quickly without delays.

• P.S : to tell you the truth, I'm doing this surreal entry within my work on office time. Or else it's couldn't be here to display... =(

Beautiful work again. It brings me memories of my oil, acrylic, watercolor painting days. Nice combination of the green. yellow and blue colors. Good luck my friend.

I have no words...

Congrats with a spot in the next round

Congratulations! Good luck on the next round!

Congrats!!

Congrats, but still believe the clouds were brushes.

• Thanks for the nice comments and votes.

@ solkee: thanks to you too, but I sent you (or the other mods) the proven clouds sbs, rite? = )

• Next time I just use the photos and manipulate it just like the others so you could probably believe it wasn't a brush after all. Peace and cheers.

@ solkee: Im sorry if I brag in.
why are you underestimate another people skill? if someone can REALLY make the cloud as realistic as the brushes, they don't deserve the rights to be BELIEVED?

just open CGHUB and see a lot of great artist drawing cloud in a realistic result.

I wonder if those entries above used the cloud brush instead of painting or make it by himself?!

wow amazing digital painting!! congrats my friend!

HexaNode, I don't underestimate anybody's skills. Also the images at cghub.com are not being questioned here as they have nothing to do with this site. I voiced my opinion as a member of the site in the comments as I am allowed to do and then I messaged the author in private. If the author is so concerned about my comment we can certainly make it quite public, but I doubt that is what the author would like.

Fantastic stuff author.... and extra points for the excellent sbs..... good luck

Thanks for your consideration to look after my SBS, friend. And your kindness to fave it.

Have a great time!

°____°

this is definately one of my faves for this contest, original author, well done

Would be better if you made monster a little brighter so it pops out a little more. Looks like a scene from a movie too

Thanks for the comments, Keiley22 and Kid. Appreciated so much!

Kid, if I made the monster a little brighter, yes it can pops up but in my humbly opinion; I tried so hard to make it merged into the environment so it doesn't look so fake. Because it's a painting inside a photo real. = )

But once again, thanks for your considerations to look after my creation and I suggest to check the WIP section too. I tried to explain everything there. Have a great time all.

Congrats!!

this is still a rare piece... congrats
