Very interesting work author...Giraffe look fantastic with new improved neck...lol...best of luck

I don't know why but I really like this one ... very clever use of bare, cracked earth and planet with food. What's a giraffe suppose to do but str-e-e-e-e-e-e-ch!

Thanks both for your comments!!

Awesome Idea for this contest, GOOD LUCK!!

very nice convincing work...gl

Because you are very fond of shadows, here is one for you:
compare length of the shadow that the trunk is casting in your manipulation, looks same as that one in original image...but length of the trunk is not the same...isn't it???

oh dear, derdevil got ya on that one author (looks like a super easy fix, I honestly didn't notice because I was laughing at the focal point) Plenty of time author.. good luck

EDIT: All fixed author.. great job

Missed the trunk shadow worrying about the guy who was standing behind the elephant! Thank you SO much for catching that!
I'm going in for nose surgery in a couple hours to correct a deviated septum, so I guess noses are on my mind, eh?

i thought the topic was Unproportioned Humans not animals or insects!!!???

sorry i was inattenive. good luck!

Nice reconstruction...GL author!

Great concept and very well done .... poor Ele looks like he is feeling a little inadequate almost has a tear in his eye. But your I smiled over you reply to slushy ... good luck with the surgery. I had some surgery done recently and I can sympathize (not the nose but the back ... yuck). Anyway, great!

Um, seems a little simple. I mean, all you did was cut out the head and make it bigger.

cool work author and great idea...maybe u could use hand of some body builder and place it instead modify original one...then play with curves a bit in CMYK mode to achieve skin tone matching...just an idea

nice piece author...great shapes and colors...IMHO this fish look way natural in your interpretation then original...best of luck

This fish is "Truth is stranger than fiction" type. Saw the original in sbs. I googled to find the name, couldn't. It should be having 1. If anyone here can find it please let me know or message it here. So beautiful. Thanks author for the info.
I appreciate the brilliant colors you gave to the overall image. Love the curves and diagonals. I will add this to my fav.

I am pretty sure they are a type of "Flying Fish" or Exocoetidae ... check it out here and see if you agree http://www.99express.com/2009/06/exocoetidae-flying-fish.html.

Here is a better link with one that looks a lot like yours http://www.sharkfriends.com/wacky/flyingfish.html

Sorry after all that forgot to comment on your image. Great idea to make them smaller but if I am right your poor guys won't be able to fly any more ...their wings are clipped Love your background!
