clever, I like this.............well done. The only thing I would suggest is rresizing the mechanism a little smaller, some of the cogs are not right. Lower right and left, they look like they should be coming out of the case.......

Great idea, well executed.. good luck!

thx

Thx for good advice adeincyprus

Right side works for me, left side not so much, but it's a good idea...

If you give the left side some shadows within the shell being cast onto the face...it will really help. Have the shadow mimic the direction of the main shadow of the original source.

Really good job! (Type's a bit pixelated...you can probably fix that).
EDIT: Type looks great now, better font too!

man when this contest is over may I use this as my new avatar...love the color and the "Papa Fossil" thing

right behind ya chapp and yk. good work. font looks ok to me. You musta fixed it

HAHAHA.....awesome idea + work.....I think fire reflection on glasses can be better .....and tat gold teeth ROCKS......

YO grandpa

Like this one, beats the Hulk Hogan he's got now! Loyd this one looks cool it should at least inspire you. Nice concept author!

so cool!

hahaha, great...

great!!

Nice - but i dont think the white on the face is working? Maybe a lighter green?? Maybe add a texture to you guitar before the emboss etc.. ? GL.

I remember this entry, funny work . Animmax does have a point about the alien's face, right now it demands quite some attention from the actual subject. Good luck!

nice.

nice

cool

thats just scary

Nice idea, but it doesn't look like a fossil as much as an imprint (which could be a negative side of a fossil, but not the fossil itself - like dinosaur tracks)

Definition of “fossil”: a remnant, impression, or trace of an organism of past geologic ages that has been preserved in the earth's crust (from http://www.merriam-webster.com/ )

Congratulations for 3rd

congratulations, very interesting

Congras!

congrats

Congratulations.

good work

now this really looks like a fossil from my anthropology textbook

Wonderful image! Very well done. It looks like some of the actual fossils I've found before.

Thanks for comments, Actually before creating this entry, I have visited many fossil web site gallery to see how fossil on rock will look, secondly finding proper sources and finally try and error with some blending layer options and get this result which is very closer to real.

Nice job! It shows that some research improves the result! I like the barely visible antennas from the moth. Good luck!

very nice work.

awesome
