Bummers can be funny. I like the idea. The sign does not look right, no dimension to it.

Fantastic idea author...super cool thinking...IMHO u should work a bit more on a sign to give more realism there...everything else is well made...best of luck

The sign is being problematic for me...I tried adding some shadows, and it looked even more "fake" (like the rest of the image is SOooo realistic!)...

Any suggestions on how to improve the sign would be most welcome!

hmmmm...maybe instead of white frame u could use some a bit rusty metal texture and create frame with that....if u do that u have to create shadow in frame too...also would be cool to create some detaching parts on the surfer poster to achieve casual look...this is just and idea author...GL

You can try duplicating the sign author and just distorting it so it look 3d... wish I could help, but its not something ive done yet. Otherwise try adding some noise and a bit of an off white colour to the poles... Better yet the chances of it having some rust on it from being close to salt water

Other than that, its funny

Your main problem IMO is that the frame is all one color, the main surfer has an orange sunset glow on his back so that same light will cast a slight burned shadow at the back of the sign (on the sand) and an orange to black gradient overlay at very low opacity on the sign will give it more realism. Hope that helps.

Please fix source links.

fixed, sorry about that

This is a beautiful entry.... you did a good job...(One of the best from you author, good luck!)

OMG This ROCKS! Certainly a fav in my book!! GL!

Oh ho ho... I must say top notch work!

I'm not a big fan of random imaginary creatures, but this guy is dynamic and well crafted - artistically rendered and foreshortened - beyond just slapping pieces parts together for a "cute", symmetrical character staring at me....again. I would like to see him in a scene of some type, but the background still works very nicely. Great job!

This so moved me author I am lighting one up as I type!!!!! wtg!

I wanna paint it!!!!

Nice work. Fix the disproportionate feet.

Thank you everybody..., @ pingenvy.., It is very nice to hear such words from a great artist like you.. I am really inspired.., @ cmyk.. Thank you verymuch for notifiying.., but as u can see in my sbs the back leg (right leg) was smaller than the current leg. And the disproportion was my intention..,

great creation !
