Please take a look at the High Res version.

Mixed light sources. The background and sky is uniform and the rest has light from left-tight. Nice idea tho.

Thanks for your input Akassa, have changed the background.

where is the old background with the mushroom houses? i think it lookes better and fits better to the theme

I thought so too Kekskruemel, however the entry was withdrawn on the basis that I hadn't read the whole of the task:

"Besides that you must give your character an OCCUPATION and a real smurfs name."

So I had to give her a job!

"Model Smurf" would be a better fit for the contest theme, "So do not for instance turn a gardener into a smurf but turn someone into 'Gardener Smurf'."

Alhough Smurfette is the only smurf to not have just the name "smurf," "Smurfleigh" is not a good smurf name, because of the "leigh..."

Gads, a discussion on the finer points of naming those silly creatures!

By the way, I like the new background, I think it better suits your Entry Description.

Whoa , at first look I thought you were referring to the girl as your cow, -- lol

lol

Author, please read the contest rules - What is the smurf's occupation and smurf name?

I like the cows's eyes!!

I agree with Minnie ... cow's eyes are super!

LOL!! Fabulous! I had no idea how to do this contest.

Your SBS does not show anything about the hat. Do you need a source listed? Can you show how it was done?

EDIT: Thanks!

I added a 4th step for you Elemare. Hopefully that helps.

Nice job! Only suggestion would be a highlight on the back edge of the comb, like what is on the pail. Also a bit more texture and shading on the hat. Real nice entry though. Good luck!

Very Nice job!!
Good Luck

Very Nice job!!
Good Luck

give more range of shadings to the hat, lighten the boy may be better

He's kind of dark, but great job on that hat! Cute name for him, too.

Good Jub ....
Architecturaly the window must be as the same height as the door
some shadow must be under the right mushroom's top ...
Nice roof Tops
Good Luck ...

Maybe it's a split-level mushroom house. It's taller than the one on the left...The window does not bother me half as much as the overly white eye, which looks too prominent and bulgy.

I had to leave town and wanted to get it into contest ..rushed in wrong version had a problem with link.... my ride was waiting ... I did get back in time to resubmit ..thks to both of u
