The "wild swans" sign looks too disjointed from the image, It would be better without the framing, and the "space flower" text is too dominant, taking away from the "melting blue delicious," which is what the image does a fabulous job of conveying.
In short, the text is hurting this image.

It's an Eighties cover MossyB (I have hundreds of them) and it works perfectly fine for me, Sorry I disappointed you so much, I'll try to make it better next time (The Wild Swans is the name of the band, Space Flower is the name of the Album, Melting blue Delicious was the name of the song)

hahahahaha...cool...wild swans....i imagined that sign how swim like a swan and ask for food from the people around the lake...lol...sorry author i am a bit cracked...GL

I'm not familiar with that song or group, but that's definitely an 80s look!! Well done, and I can say that from experience.
Sorry, MossyB, but maybe you're just too young to appreciate this style of art - and yes, it IS a style. Well done, author.

What are those chocolate things??? Reminds me of some peanutbutter-chocolate cheesecake pops I made once......

Nice cocktail! I wouldn't drink it though...lol.... Great entry

uahuahuahuahuhauhauha
Drivenslush!!!! Good one!
thanks for the funny comment.

woot! nice one Author, slurp that drink down good luck

Thank you, Cabldawg71.

Interesting idea as Nator noted. I think the guy should be casting some shadow onto the lemon slice, however. And the lighting on the lemon slice doesn't seem to match the lighting on the woman.

DanLundberg.
I thought about the shadows but, the guy and the orange slice are together (inside the glass) so, I think there is no space for the shadow.
I didn't see a problem with the lighting on the orange slice... it is a little bit far from the "spot of light" and it's slightly bright in the part that is closer to the woman and darker when it's far.
Anyway, I thank for your comment, Dan.

There's always space for a shadow; look at any object where it touches the ground (and including that often-miniscule shadow is what helps to make Photoshopping look real). But angle of view could hide a shadow. Although I'm not all that sure that's the case here given the shading on the guy, if you tried a shadow and it didn't look right, I'll defer to your judgment.

great idea and very nice work author...best of luck

DanLundberg,
When I said "there is no space for the shadow", I meant that they are both at the same angle and the guy is touching the orange slice, so he is hiding the shadow and then "no space" to put a shadow.
I tried that before. I had the same point of view as you and before to put the image here I put the shadow there but then it wasn't looking real.
I honestly thank you for the comment ... those kind of conversation make us grow and I've been learning a lot with them.

Erathion,
Thank you for the comment!

IMO this just needs something more...maybe some fart bubbles.

It's a mysterious drink, and she looks very interested in solve that mystery... Nice work!

Nice idea and result, good luck!

CMYK46... arghhhh...lol

Akassa, thanks for the comment!

Kyricom
hahahahahahahahahahaha

Congrats Telma...

Congrats!

Telminhaaaaaaaaaaa! Congrats!!! Parabéns!!!

Congrats!!

Hmmmmmm Cake!

A choco cake with whipped cream and caramel sauce... Nice!

Really like the idea of re-imagining rust as caramel dripping over chocolate cake, but I don't think the caramel is quite realistic enough for such a close-up viewpoint. Also, I feel the whipped cream is weak and possibly unnecessary.

good luck

GL

good effort.

Mmm. The mess on his face and finger are convincing, too.

nice

Congrats for your second place, chizty!

Thank you .... Wow, my first 2nd place ... Yippiiii ....

Congrats

Congratulations for 2nd

i think you need harder edges, they look a little blurry, but it's a nice idea. Good luck!

you could add a touch more pink to the bun to make it look more like cat food.. not that it's needed.. it's a very well put together image.. good luck

Cats are too green, edges need work...

awwwwwwwwww...kitty!

just... weird, kinda creepy, GJ

good idea

Nice idea and the cars are purrfect but you need to work on the edges of the burger a little bit

nice

I like how you took the time to crop out all of the condiments and leave them in messy, strewn about piles on the ground. It really helps to sell the idea that these two cats are tearing into this thing. Still, the burger looks a bit too stretched and I'm not sure whats happening with the blurry green smudge on the right hand side (is it mold?). I would fix both of these issues by replacing the current burger with a smaller, less distorted one. Nice job, though, and keep it up!

poor cats!

was it intended that the cats look green? or maybe it's food poisoning... lol, nice attempt
