Nice work, blending looks good.

Good blend indeed.

Good light blending with the source. Good luck.

Nice image ....your links must lead to the images you've used, not the authors gallery

Author, you can easily find two similar images to use, then resubmit. There are plenty of girls & lions out there.

Author, if you spoke the owner of the girl image about it, and the owner approved, then the only thing you have to do is make a screenprint from the owner's approval (I assume you asked by mail or PM) and put that in the SBS (and make sure that your own name does not appear in the screenprint). Then there shouldnt be a problem. Or as CMYK says, replace the images for other legal sources. Good luck!

This is very good, author. Have you thought of uploading Hi-res??

Perfect! Much better now Good luck!

Although is a matter of taste i like this lightened version much more then previous one ..Good luck author..!!! p.s i think i can remember the girl's stock......nice choice

Love the details, very good job at blending both subjects.

You still haven't posted the uncut image of the girl, or a link to it.

This is a lovely work. The only problem is the shadow on the right hand cheek of the girl. It is too pronounced in comparison to the other shadows on that side, and makes the lion look like a photo that she has her face next to. If you lighten that just a bit more, so that the edges blend better, it will be more consistent with the other edges on the right hand side, and make the image more integrated. Still, a very good chop!

very hard work here author, good luck

bbeautiful, charming amazing

Edit: you are welcome, but still a real fan not complementing

Thanks for all comments!!
"Orientallad" thank you for the compliment, I appreciate it.

Very nice entry!! Good luck!

You have made a very complex image here and I see what you are trying to achieve.

IMO there are a few things that need to be corrected if you have the time.

The masking/cutout of the lady on the left could use some refining (if you can try using layer mask they can help refine the cut). The floor is a little too Cloned looking, you could try to use the cut and paste-over in small section, then position the bricks so they line up (which takes a fair bit of time) or try to get a full brick floor. The base could use a bit of perspective fixing ... the sides are slopping out a bit too much, I would say the upper-far corners could be moved in toward the center of the image a bit (using the Transform tool and hold down the Ctrl key to Free Transform individual corners). You can also see through the left hand side of the base at the back just in front of the lady (a quick way to fix this is just to duplicate the layer until it becomes solid and then merge the layers together). I know this is a lot but your idea is very nice and I believe you are headed in the right direction. If you have any questions just PM me

THanks VERY VERY MUCH !!! it is through this type of feed back one can grow . I wont have time to fix. but i will take on board your tips for next time...
