HI everybody, this is my first competition entry and I hope you like my work.

Basicly for this image I got a nice countryside backround. Found a chair and cut it out. Onto the chair I put the competition image, firstly though, I cut it out and puppet wrapped it so it looks like a helmet. Then I added a camo texture to the helmet and played around with the different blend modes. Lasty I put everuthing together by adding some extra shadows, and then I added a nice Brown and Orange gradiend and blended that to look nice.
Take care! (5 years and 3461 days ago)

Welcome to the competition. Just a thought for your entry... The shadow on the chair doesn't match the high noon image it is placed on. It also looks like you distorted the image of the chair (if you hold down shift while resizing the aspect ratio will remain constant thus avoiding the distortion).
Also a high res copy would be nice so that we can see what you did with the turtle shell.
Cheers and good luck.

Have to admit, the shadow is fascinating . It's not correct, but on the other hand...who cares . A high resolution version would be nice though (if you want that, then go to topnavigation My stuff - My contests, there you see your entry and then you can check the option High Resolution, something like that...). Good luck!

Used only given image , and manipulated it into a cyclops alien. Everything not from the turtle was drawn in photoshop. (5 years and 3463 days ago)

The two back legs would look better if you sharpened up the edges and used the burn tool to give them depth. Awesome idea!

Its nice that you managed to edit the turtle into a different shape. Though the feet pointing at eachother at the front is a little disconcerting, its an okay image. The eye is a plus, though i can't say much for the fuzz on top... But its not too damaging.

HA, that's creative the eye is a bit too dark, imo and the left horn too rough (the edges)

First i used soft brushes to free the turtle, then a marquee to finish off.

After that i brought in two source images, a moon and clouds.

I cut out a piece from the cloud marquee, enlargened it and softened it up. Then i added detail with other brushes, mostly experimental and random.

I adjusted brightness and contrast and placed the moon in the corner.

I got picture of a tree outside my house, then i painted over it with one color. After that i used Burn and Sponge to add a little 3d, then i used Dodge to add the odd 3d lighting, which i think works with the odd scene.

Finally i added the roots, burned and sponged them as well, used a dark gradient background, added a light, painted an eye on the turtle and added a final light. (5 years and 3460 days ago)
