An interesting entry, I must say! Have you tried to play a little with the levels and brightness settings to give a more mysterious and eerie feel? All in all, very good, author!

I like this very much, precisely my taste of chop I do however agree with JimLemon that it would benefit from some final touches. Some color balance, gradient overlay or some other type of tweak would help really tie it all together.

Nicely done nevertheless.

Perfect for Halloween

Good transformation....

Very realistic...Good transformation

Very nice chop. Good luck author

This is a very nice image however there are some problems with your sources. Links must show the image used and the usage terms for that image. Source 4 is from an ad page, you have to find the original image to see if it is free of copyright and provide that link. Source 7 is the download link, use this link instead: https://www.pexels.com/photo/nature-sky-clouds-cloudy-1195/ Source 8 is also the download link, you must show the link to the image and the usage terms for that image.

The other links seem okay. You'll have to make the corrections or the Contest Moderator will have to send you a warning and remove your entry until it has been corrected.

Good news, another mod found an acceptable link for source 4. Use this link for source 4: http://color.wikia.com/wiki/Mold
More good news, I found a usable link for source 8. Use this link for source 8:
http://imageck.com/289180241-ishtar-temple.html
It's a wordpress image using a Creative Commons share alike license.
Make these changes and your entry will be fine!

Congratulations.....

Congrats on 1st place

Congrats

Congrats!!

Thank's

How much fun is that? Though with all those holes the drag would be horrific LOL.. great job

This is a good entry... good thinking, and good transformation. GL.

Very good craft... perfect and well done

Author I think you've put the url in the wrong box. The link works when I copy and paste it but not when you click on it.

I'm afraid I have some bad news about the source, it's under a Creative Commons No derivative works license. That means it cannot be modified, remixed, transformed or built upon. You always have to check for the CC symbol with an equal sign (=) in a circle, it means no derivative works.

I did find an almost exact match for the source here:

I hope you can correct your image, I'll ask the Contest Moderator to give you some time before sending a warning.

Ready to go!
Good job!

The new source worked out great, looks just like the original! Well worth the extra time you spent fixing this really fine entry.

Congratulations for your 2nd...

Congrats

Thanks my friends!

Thanks my friends!

Looks good, needs SBS. (Author, you can post your SBS along with your entry).

Author you do need at least a written description of how the entry was made. An SBS (step by step) would be better and helps show how you created the entry. It's in the Photoshop Rules:
5.4. No External Source used in your Entry:
In this case, write in your description how your entry was made.

Keep in mind that if there's something not clear, the moderators might ask you to explain or post a step by step guide. This way we can keep the contests fair for everyone!

Ok, I am working on it. Just been busy. Thank guys

Congrats... for third.

Congrats

Congrats once again!!

I see from your SBS a lot of work was done but I think the final image is too dark to appreciate the details (and I'm using a 27" high res monitor). You could brighten it up a bit and still maintain the drama.

Well Spaceranger, I did lighten this. LOL, you wouldn't believe how many versions I have. I lost a lot of stone detail dropping it into my photo. I also had tombstones that I spent a long time shading for the environment, and then i lost my link and spent over an hour trying to search it. I finally said %$#@ it. I really like my torches, but they required extensive highlight changes on the building trim, so I nixed that too. I can't say it hasn't been fun!

This looks much better than the original dark version. But the moon is gone, I don't know if that was intentional or not

Yeah. I like this image better, the lighting looks good. Good luck!

Sooper Moody! Love it

You did a good job.... congratulations for 4th....

Pretty Nifty! Great thinking

Good idea.... author, good luck.

You should post your "How I did the fan" as your SBS, no need to use a link for that. You can add an SBS by selecting "My Entries" from the profile menu then the entry where you want to add the SBS. Very nicely done and an informative guide. An SBS can be rated by members and approved by a Mod.

If you got to that point, you should see the "Create Step" button. Then you can upload a JPG for each step. Once you've done that, just click the "Done" button.
