Not bad at all, but according to the text not threatening enough, imo. What if you change it a little bit that i.e. the wife (I guess) demands from her hubby to be more a helping hand at home instead of help his friends to get rid of money that has been spent on beer and such? And then the hand is from one of his friends. Just an idea . Good luck!

Hand is a bit distorted...

Nice.

Nice old and grunge look

nice work -- only one small thing the leg of the diaper boy could use a touch up

Good thinking, and great masking. Be careful with lighting and light sources, try matching them all to the lighting of the barn.

Thanks for the feedback

My comment would be the same as above, double check the original light source, soft and diffused. Thats how all the other components need to be lit, soft shadows and soft highlights.

Thanks for the advice.. I made the barn lighter

Nice work all around. I see some leftover debris from a mask in the middle of the safe house. Other than that good job. Good luck!

Gulliver?

very nice i like the idea

clever idea and a nice entry .............. all the best ..........

funny and good...

GO WEST!!! pet shop boys.. hehehe..

I think if you move move the gate over to the left a little more and lighter the tree shadow it will look much better. Imo it feels like something is missing but I can't put my finger on it. Overal it is a well thought out entry. gl

I agree about the tree shadow. Maybe give it a gaussion blur and bring the opacity down. I'm a little confused at the clouds that follow the steps to the right? Also, I would get rid of the top guy that looks exactly like the bottom guy. Fix those and this will be very nice!

Thanks for the advice, it was taken on board

I agree with the shadow, but instead of lowering the opacity the shadow should be broken up with the texture of a cloud. I would also finish masking the arch way and soften the edge of the "mountain" on the right side. Great entry. Good luck!

The brightness of the right front of the tree seems inconsistent with a light source coming from behind the tree. There's an inexplicable notch in the right railing near the top. (Using the Clouds filter to create a mask for the tree shadow might help 'wispify' it.)

This looks great

not to many people getting into heaven lol... nice work author

lol @Keiley22 I wish I could favorite your comment

beautiful ....

Very nice job, only thing that I think of is that the person further up and away is taller than the stair, with perspective in mind, that person must be huge comparing to the person standing closest to us. IMO...Otherwise - really nice job!

sunzet, you are very correct, thanks for the notice ill change it

Welcome to the competition. Just a thought for your entry... The shadow on the chair doesn't match the high noon image it is placed on. It also looks like you distorted the image of the chair (if you hold down shift while resizing the aspect ratio will remain constant thus avoiding the distortion).
Also a high res copy would be nice so that we can see what you did with the turtle shell.
Cheers and good luck.

Have to admit, the shadow is fascinating . It's not correct, but on the other hand...who cares . A high resolution version would be nice though (if you want that, then go to topnavigation My stuff - My contests, there you see your entry and then you can check the option High Resolution, something like that...). Good luck!

good luck
