love the flicker photo, nice find looks good author

Great idea, looks really nice, but in my opinion the actual buildings need a little bit of sharpening. Good work and good luck!

Very inventive.........good luck

wicked awesome

wonderful work author

Interesting image.

good job!! good idea!

very nice

The masking around the people could have done with a lot more work.

someone lives in this city yet, everything looks trimmed... cheers!

love the lights on the viewers. but there are two lines on the glass don know if they are meant to be there or was any scrap. good idea.,

cool underwater worl...high res?

BTW will add my own SBS later after i get comments and fix my image best i can. THANKS ALL in advanced for rating and tips.


-NOTE-
Please do look at the HIGH RESOLUTION for a clearer image, it is VERY hard to make a monkey out of water, maintaining its face and features.

Very nice effect. Good job!!

you need to give credit names to all the deviantart artists you have used, also you need to put links on all their pics so they can see what you have made here.... otherwise its not following their rules goodlucj, would hate to see your entry removed also im glad you put in the tutorial, ive not tried to make an image like this yet...

ty oliviasarts, i forgot to send them comments n stuff, i will put their names. ur welcome for the link on the tutorial. it was an amazing tut forgot bout it till i read water monkey, and im like hmmmmmmmmmm i remember seein somethin like that

Beautiful. Although I had trouble finding his face in your composition. I understand that water animals are difficult to pull off. Nice job. Good luck.

chakra1985 u stole my MONKEY!!!! LOL

very excellent work on this .. he kinda needs a paddle.. but that's a personal choice.. he doesn't seem to be INSIDE the canoe.. Kinda behind it... but it could be me... some of the others may be able to help you .. good luck..and very good work.. your SBS is awesome

EDIT: Solid Improvement.. well done, really looks like a painting

just lower the indian to the front edge of the canoe (step 12 of sbs)

Ugh...water not look too much like water, kemosabe. (Clouds are too repetitive).

i'm getting seasick

Very batty ...nicely done indeed...good luck.

whoah cool

Great atmosphere nice work!

Thanks a lot CMYK46, Tuckinator & Warlock!

very nice feel

gud work + imagination.......bt mountain's top area luks bit flat.....

cool

reminds me of the bats movie lol great mood

Thank you. How should i make the mountain look more realistic? (not flat) =)

really nice idea & job author ... GL

hey nice work

cool

Thanks to all of you!

very nice balance of shape and form author.. the two merging triangles are a risk as they could easily throw you up and out of the picture but the complex base really retrieves you back into the focus of the whole composition.. quite nice.. even though it is very dark.. but that's just me and my eyes (I'm a tad bit addicted to color IMHO

take off, or reduce the outer glow on the mountain.. will make it look more realistic, and if your going to put a blur on any of the bats, put it on all of them. it actually doesnt look bad with a minor blur. maybe make a copy of a flattened layer (select the top layer and press command+option+shit+E, this will duplicate all your layers and flatten them into one) after that, do a bit of a diffuse glow (if that helps with the brightness) or add a medium gaussian blur, and set the blending mode to overlay, and bring down the opacity to around 20. this'll help give it a smooth, yet sharp effect.

great feeling!

Excellent idea.. nice work author ! good luck!!

So unique and creative, realyl nice work!
