Very nice entry

Many thanks to all for the nice comments and favs

Lovely and awesome... great use of the textures in the original photo... to make this wonder abstract.... we should have an abstract category were you don't recongnize the original but alot of great work has gone into making an amazing work.

Loved this one! Just missed out......

Nice, it's quite different. I like the background, it shows how you can be among a crowd and feel alone...

Like the concept. The not-so-cubist extraterrestrial is not at all that clear without looking at the SBS. Cubism is largely suggestive in any event, so the alien needs to be much stronger IMO and readily identifiable as such as it's deconstructed. The guitar is merely split apart while I think of cubism as partial duplicates overlapping at differing angles.

Dan, Thanks for your comments. You are right in that the alien should have been stronger and more clearly deconstructed. I tried a more analytical approach, rather than just random overlapping rectangles. I think, that is what the early cubists tried to accomplish: showing more aspects of the same subject in a single image.

very cool!

love the expression cool

Another Alien.....? Where is the other? (You mean...............) what ever... Nice job...

Kind of a jagged chop but it's a nice effect if you're going for a cartoonish look. Hehe, nice work!

super...

More than an alien, it reminds me those mythical characters (like warriors of Ancient Greece, for example). Nice for a child book illustration!

For this kind of style, very good entry. At least this is showing some work done and something (a lot) from the original source. Good job, author..

hahahahaha...funny creature author...best of luck

Cool!...good entry.

awesome!

Wow, this alien looks primitive, which tribe he comes from
