Nice work, I like this !

love the body armor!!!

THANKS!!!!!

in hight rez is awsomeeeeeee

Thanks a lot!!!!! I try and be as detailed as possible, because a lot of entries look cool until you open them in high res and realize the blending and detail is actually lacking.

Great image, not sure you needed to source to produce it as its heavily painted ..... still a great image though, well done !

You have ideas that are worth to look at. Your entries are just good and well done. Good luck author.

Very creative and the sbs is so detailed

Wow, hi-res shows the detail of all that work on the seaming, great job, author!

thanks everyone! and Greexman, true it has a good amount of painting, but only adding shadows and highlights. Plus, if you looked at the highres I used the screw from the source a billion times! and the vizor is from the source, and the gun is all made of pieces of the source, basically I'm saying is sorta disagree, the picture would certainly not have turned out as it did without the source. But I'm glad you like it either way and I appreciate all the feed back

Congratulations for your first place.....!

Congrats!..Great job

Congratulations

Thanks everyone for voting so kindly

The back light glow is a bit too intense around the butt and left leg, while non-existent anywhere else, which makes it somewhat distracting. The lighting on the top front of the face (see the reflection on the mask), and the top right of the arms is also inconsistent and confusing with such a strong back light...

Excellent Work..you're right, it was a dynamic pose, but u did an excellent job transforming her and placing her in a simple but very fitting background..GL

Thanks for the feed back! and I appreciate the constructive criticism Mossy. I see now what you were saying. I finished it very late at night and after seeing it with fresh eyes in the morning you were right about the back light being over done. Also, I agree about the glare in the middle of the mask, but I removed it and it just seemed to take away from the image, so I just toned it down a bit.

I'm with Nator ...you should have kept the glare

I put the glare half way back thanks for your input everyone!!!

very dramatic feel, good work.

awsm!!

If I were the model, I would have this hanging on my wall. This is terrific!

Thanks!!! I sent it to her maybe she will

Congrats for 1st place, super pic

Congrats Robert excellent work

Thank you thank you!

congrats!! cool n amazing

sources to follow

I think the Castro figure should be in front of the tank shadow and maybe a tad bit more downstage... good luck.. interesting conglom

And you didn't just link the sources when you uploaded your entry because????????

It's action speaks louder than WORDS, with an S

yeah i no jawshoewhah but for some reason would nt let me put the s in

shadow on the board is not off tank its of the man himself he is crouched over

You couldn't put an S in your title because it's too long; it already happened to me once... Very "catastrophic" mood; cool entry!

good luck

bullet is big ................i think

Thanks ndosanjh, I have reduce bullet size

Pretty good result! It's personal, but maaaybe I'd choose a bit other color for the background (or maybe a bit lighter in the middle), so that the image will be more spectacular. Did you also try to keep the remote without blur? Perhaps that'll give even more the highspeed effect. Good luck!

Edit: new background fits better imo

Thanks wazowski , changed background color and remove blur from remote.

great entry ! good luck

Excellent work author.. this is extra ordinary realistic... the only thing I want to say is the bullet to be a little smaller and rotate a little downwards ( may be 4-5 degrees) and move down a little... IMO... GL

Anoop thanks for comment and suggestion. Made some slight changes.

Very nice job author...I hold my vote till now,u made some nice improvements...good luck

Very well done...but the idea just seems like a bit of a duplicate from the tutorial...

i hate it when the remote broke! good one here!

Very nicely done. Great job on the fly-out pieces.

nicely done. great effect.

agrees with gamemaster. It's great you duplicated the tutorial but you did just that. It's too late now but I would have used something like an iphone or some other electronic device so it's not so much like copying the tut.

nice work

sbs??

As far as I can tell, all you did was invert the source and add the external layer. Not really a lot of work done here....
