Nice Congrats

very funny concept (great thinking) good luck author (you are going to get b!tched at about light placement and your shadow cast, but your overall image is quite humorous, good luck

Great idea, wrong shadows.
EDIT: Looks better. GL author.

Lol @ Driven's comment. We're here to learn and help others, no one's getting b!tched.
Light is coming from the right so shadows should fall in the left.

sometimes I go too fast and this happens, I believe these shadows are more real I hope you like it, thx for your comments and advice. cmyk prefer judgments tips

I didn't see what it looked like before but first thing I looked at was the shadows on the peoples faces in the background. Sun is on the left for that image. Your elephant image, is reversed, sun is on the right. Also, shadows tend to get darker as the object casting them gets closer to the ground, meaning the shadow of the child and the elephant's foot should be a little darker than the rest.

As everyone else has stated, you have the humor down easy, what im pointing out is mearly realism and continuity. Goodluck.

Just flip the background and don't forget to place the candy where it was.

and I forgot the candy,...... sombras.Titan85, the people you're right, but the shadows do not have to be degraded, depending on the strength of light, and perpendicularity. not go in ready, you can see my work I'm not so new (it ends the discussion by the shadows) thx

cute... shadow can make more realistic, should tweak the shape of the elephant.. abit stiff
overall great idea!

very cute... congrats!
