This is my first real attempt at fully photoshoping (not just using layers and masks). I hope the guide isn't too detailed (my first attempt at a guide). (5 years and 3649 days ago)

nice work, love the background- after I saw the step by step it made me wish you hadn't stretched the bird quite so much

Not bad, but flip the flag part...

author says:

Thanks for the comments. I did try to flip the flag, but it just looked off somehow. I tried a few different "stretches" of the bird. The less elongated ones didn't really give a Phoenix feel...just a big bird on a building. I'll keep at it though.

This is a wicked cool but you warped the original source I can barely tell how you used it. But this is still wicked cool nonetheless

author says:

Thanks jawshoewhah. Actually, the source image is the only part I didn't warp. I even masked out the bird face in the final step so that you could see the source. It's been changed into a "firey brightness" (hopefully), but in the Hi-Res you should be able to clearly see the source image. But I agree. It's wicked cool. Didn't think I was going to be able to get it to turn out the way I envisioned, but it did.
