Why (or how) would people run underwater?

obviously you havnt watched sponge bob cmyk46.......lol just joking great work author

awsome.....but for me ..it s not in theme!!!!

It's a unique idea but lacks realism.

Nator, my understanding that it was supposed to be realistic. It's just IMHO.

Nice texture work, the bubbles looks great. Good luck.

Congrats for your second place, Loopy!

Nice looking pic, but remove the supports underneath the sub! (And maybe make the conning tower a bit more blue to match the rest...).

I agree with both cmyk and Nator. Also front of sub is very badly chopped in high res. You used magnetic lasso too or magic wand, didn't you? Adjust the contrast if you want to use magic wand but I would have just used polygonal lasso with a 2px feather. It will give you a better chop. There are vague children’s faces in the window rims. Are they from a source or your own creation? I'd just try to make them looking through the glass. You should put the “School Sub IX” back, it was a nice effect.

Thx for advice, i wil try to fix them. There are no children in the window rims. I used the source without changing it.

Well put some in there then.

EDIT: I see you added lights but you should at least remove the stilts. They just don't look right if it's a sub underwater. It would not need them. Remember realism is the key to this contest.

Voila, it was a lot of work, but i think it's ok now ??

You got your work cut out for ya because it looks MUCH better. Glad you decided to put a name back on the sub, fix it's edges and remove the stilts. Glad I held off on voting. I can give you a better vote now.

Thanks jawshoewhah

Lots better.

I will not be surprised to see you place because you decided to use our tips, you have quite a contender.;

Great image... looks very apocalyptic.. very nice take on the theme. Good luck.

very nice

Very good, You seem to have a put a lot of effort into the sea floor (which i liked) at the beginning of your SBS and i dont see it anywhere, how come?

Thx for comments all . PhotoRepair the first ocean floor was just a stock photo and i just pasted it in, but i did not like the combination with the city. It was a bit boring for my likeing

Congrats on your placement. It should have been 1st.

Congrats for your third place, Clinge!

Congrats

I like the feel of it. It reflects sadness for the lost earth and loneliness.

nice chop!

Nice piece of stunning artwork!

would the outside water make the inside reflection look distorted? It looks as if the water is on the inside. I don't know for sure--was just curious.

This will be tough to top. nice work

Love this. It reminds me of an image I might see for the Hermit card in an Underwater Theme Tarot Deck

k5683: Water is going to bend the light to create shadows like that and I think the author did it perfectly. Author: I think this is a really unique image and very well chopped. My ONLY nitpick is maybe you could give a little bit more attention to his hands, only need a slight edge and only noticable in high res, and his cloak, well... it kind of looks like pigeons pooped on it. Oh, and give it a name, other than the default. Other than those three small details, don't change a thing.

You know how to edit your entry, right?

right jawshoewhah....thx....all for your comm....

Very nice

Cloak looks better. Still a couple spots but much better than before. What did you do to the hands? They look kind of blurred now. I just thought the tips needed a little edging before. Still one of the better entries.

brilliant!

great job

okay, I wasn't sure

Really funny! Also really stupid...which way to vote...?

This is quoted directly from the contest guidelines: "Assuming the world is 100% covered with water and every city is fully covered with water, show how humans would survive at the bottom of the ocean."

You really think humans will learn how to breathe underwater? It's a unique idea and well chopped but not realistic...

realy nice....but.....?!

Maybe a scuba mask and lung tank ?? You still have time.

OK, better. Not too sure how he's going to play the mandolin under water, but at least he won't drown.

Excellent pic, really well done.

Fantastic! Great blend of sources, very nice colour matching, very realistic!! Great great job...definitely one of the best.

beautiful

cute

Dont know how it look in first version but now look awesome. Nostalgically, I can hear old man singing about green fields of his youth.
