in the place of gradient effect u have to put sm another background..... so maybe it look more real then now..

Taking your suggestion. I added a different back to replace the gradient.
Thank you.

Amazing work, and love the Greek and Roman Gods and Goddess. The shading is fantastic, and your use of scrolling is great. I can see myself entering a garden to look at this temple. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Something simple, sweet, and actually easy and pleasurable to view... nice work author!

why yr image is removed from competition many times....???

I am new to this website and did not understand the depth of the rules. I am also new to entering contests. I'm a beginner using Photoshop, completely self taught. Entering contest is something I had never tried before.

Yes the image was removed multiple times by the mods. I had to supply proof of purchase for other images used, an SBS guide and there was an issue with a brush and crediting an author.

I'm still a bit confused over all of it as I see many entries that do not have the requirements I needed to provide. But, I will understand in time with the wonderful help of the Mods in the forum.

The most important point is I am having a wonderful time and very much enjoying this website.

Thank you for asking.

The breast area is a bit skewed to her left side, but otherwise, this is quite lovely!

hi thanks for noticing...i just make some fixes...hope breast looks ok now???also added sbs.

The "cleavage center" between the breasts is still off-center. It should be matching up with the center of her clavicle above it.
It is also quite flat looking. Since breasts are spherical and extend out from the body, you need some values of shading beneath to give the illusion of form and depth.

great drawings...best of luck

hi thanks to all the comments,it'll help me improved...i will make fixes on the breast area try to make it more look larger though i'm flat chested hihi...kidding!!!

Fantastic concept.. good luck

good imagination.. All de best..

The castle is not that visible, I only saw it when I looked at the SBS, still this creation is one of my faves here, well done.

Emik - I know what you mean. Although I can see it fine on my home monitor once I had it uploaded I realized it was not that visible in small res/small monitor. I considered removing it but I was so late uploading that I did not have time. It was either get 4 hours sleep or fix it, I chose sleep!

Thanks for the great comments!

Congrats ! very nice

nice idea...add some small stars and glow in the background to get more feel. GL

Love the little dragon ... did you draw it?

very nice image author...good luck

well done

Thank you for your nice comments

Err you should cut the model a little better and add some blue to the edges, gl.

thanks

i saw it

just fixed it XD

i just added the smoke to the entry i wanna to make it clear that is easy to make smoke without "borrow it " form stocks. Using pen tool with white color background, I draw random things. Later i used the wrap tool and get the result ( u can add color or any details if u wanna)

Nice image, except the 'goddess' does not stand out. And if she's supposed to be a Muse, why not have the musical notes appear to surround her?

thanks
im going to add these details

great job
