Great Image! Looks sooo cool GL

wonderful choice of images and a very good idea -- lighting is well done and the chain through the sphere

Edited comment -- chain explained

Thank you guys Alan, i'm not sure what you mean, if you're referring to the chain that touches the largest sphere, my intention was to make it look like the chain was indented into the object. Maybe i'm just not looking closely enough.

I think you should intensify the light on his face to give a more dramatic touch. Very nice concept!

I can feel the pain!

OMG !!!! I absolutely LOVE this!!! Not cause it's my pic you used but what you did with it and how awesome it looks

Great imagination. Gl author.

Amazing work ...the intensity is wonderful! Excellent work!

Very cool, definitely makes you feel the pain. Such a simple, yet great use of the source. Good job, author!

Very well thought...must say u have some crazy imaginations....well done author

Author, you ARE a wizard!!!! I can't think of enough words to describe it. Quite possible one of your best entries of all time. Very well done!!! GL! (like you need it )

Congraaaaaaats!

Congrats again and again Matteo terrific work

And congrats again!

Congratulations! Very well done

Congrats...

Congrats!! Great week for you!!

amazing idea
thinking out of the box

Great work, nice colours. GL !

construction of both the creature and the background is very well done -- lighting is nice as well

I really like the tail, well done!

Great job! So awesome how ya'll can turn one thing into so many!!

Very interesting. Reminds me of a picture of an article that they just had on Yahoo about a new creature. Great use of the source, author!

Thank you all for your comments!
JPDesigns: I will have to look for that article! It must be interesting. When I did the creature I had in mind something like those living in the abyss.

Beautiful creature

nice work

Definitely a creature from the deep ... great work. Love the fluidity you have captured!

Very nice piece author...best of luck

Yea, it also looks like that creature from on Finding Nemo when they are down at the bottom of the ocean. I think that maybe what what kind of creature you are talking about, right?

Congratulations!

Congrats for your second place, Marina!

Congrats!

Thank you all!

Congrats!!

NOW THAT"S ONE HECK OF AN IMAGINATION!!!

An odd and strange image ... but very creative and I love what you have done with the colours! Superb!

Very weird, I don't really know what I'm looking at, but it's interesting. Hmmm I guess thats because it's undiscovered hehe. Great imagination, just a teensy bit too busy.

Thanks to all for the nice comments and support!!!

Congrats for your third place, Cornelia!

Congratulations

Skating on water? Good trick! (And not even a ripple...).

Cute creature shape, but it doesn't look like it's skating on ice, just water, and the light reflections from the source look out of place to the overall image, where there is no bright shining "spot" to illuminate things. Also, the sides are oddly shadowed (Burn Tool?), stopping suddenly with super bright next to shadowed, this especially looks weird with the pine tree "illuminated," and the bright stripe on the right of the bubble water skater...

Imaginative concept, but the execution needs tweaking.

i think you should blur the reflection a little more.. its to sharp

Too cute. Love this picture. My suggestions are if you want it to look more like ice, make the water a more ice blueish hue. Like the color of the eye on the side of the screen that Eramono used in the Eyes Dd Drawing contest. If you could get it to look like that that would be perfect. But if you want it to look like it's skating on water, I suggest to add ripples underneath the, round person...thingy. But anyway, this is a very cute entry!

Great idea to turn the source into such a sweet chubby slider

Great picture!

Your skater is wonderful! Has a great sense of movement. I agree about the reflections but he is so perfect I just want to ignore that and focus on what fun he is having on the ice!

I agree with arca, even if you didn't do anything about the reflections or anything, I still love this picture. The little guy is too cute to not like this picture the way it is.

wow i so much like this entry...it reminds me on old fashion cartoons...well done author

Congrats...great work...

A bit too much filter.

It's the effect i wanted sorry you don't like it CMYK46

Well done! Filters are not a sin, I think you used them judiciously.
I do think the hands are a bit too big and too bright, though. The right hand looks like it comes from a man...

Cool job!!! Never would have thought of this!

I find this has an alien quality to it ... almost like something from "Species". I don't know if that is what you where going for but either way it is a fascinating image!

I agree with arca and MossyB, it does look alien, and especially looks like she has a tail, and the hand is a bit too big. But I do like this picture very much, great idea. I too do not have a problem with the filters, I think it gives it a cool (literally) effect.

I should say that the hand is the real hand of this pretty pregnant woman so i cannot make it smaller sorry. Thanks to all for your comments !

Well done!

WOW what a great creation...well done author

Fantastic image author Good luck.

Thanks to all for your comments !

Wow really? She has a HUGE hand! lol. Well in that case, nevermind. GL, author!

Congrats Lolu...

Thanks Erathion
