Very nice job. Well done author.

Very nice work author,but IMHO maybe would better with some colors...best of luck

i like this

I like this a whole bunch of shavings = )

I like the nudy colors, very beautiful. But I'd like just one butterfly on the flowers, and maybe one flying around. GL...

Good idea, but kinda flat. Try to create a more dimensional look.

Thanx to all who comment to dis image

interesting

Interesting image.. GL author...

nice

oh gosh, that looks barbaric! makes me think of some ancient cannibalistic tribes! )

Now that is the softest rose I have ever seen, even the spines look friendly, great creative spin on it = )

'Feathery' roses - quite different! You might want to load high resolution, but even without it, the background could use a lot of cleaning up. GL

You gave life to a almost fading rose! And I give you congrats for the patience to do it only with mouse (it sucks, it's difficult...).
Do you know Genius Tablet? It's as good as Wacom but cheaper. I had a Japanese Wacom, but... it was stealed... Then I bought that one, because doing PS without a tablet!... oh Gosh!

its awesome.... really good....
add a high resolution image if you want mods to give you a good numbers...

fav

you can have my wacom tablet.... its not helping me out lol

Thanks for the comments guys :]
Added a high res img. (didn't know I had to check the box for that, heh).
I could probably clean it up more, for sure. But then again, I'm in no way good at drawing freehand. It was a bit hard for me to tell what was going on in parts of the source img.

@erikuri: Thanks for the tip! I've seen some cheaper ones out there, indeed. Think I'll buy one next week. Would make my life so much easier! And it's about time I got one

@Keiley22: lol. Sure, do you send to norway? Hehe

Thanks again for being nice to my first entry.

great use of smudge tool...well done author

Really lovely effect! It's a good thing you didn't overuse the mixer brush, you've kept a lot of the detail. Well done

cool

simple, but very good outcome!!!!

How creative! The rose bugs look mighty dangerous to me. I also like how you have included the original rose in your art piece. Very nice.

Cool idea only the sky needs a little work looks a bit uniform.

This should point you in the right direction
