WOW! Fantastic!

Interesting work author...Tiger in the background is nice addition....GL

Thank you very much for your comments.

super cool fluffy construction...well done

CUTE

Very cute!

lol, on your first SBS step. Yeah sometimes things can be quite a challenge, so much so that I'm not even touching this one. Well done, oh and let me guess, did you have to use the smudge tool. =)

Interesting title

Adorable bear, well smudged. LOL@ fluffy feeties and biceps.

Smudgy the bear is here! Love the SBS ... what lot of work and great colour matching!

anybody want to kiss me, ?

Have you had all your shots dekwid?

(hehehe, great job author.. good luck)

Nice idea. Blurring the edges of the lips a bit would make this more realistic. GL author.

Thank you, CMYK, I couldn't put my finger on what was bothering me, but you did, the edges of the lips were too hard and "sharp."

hahahahaha...cool idea and nice work...this is how the people would look after kissing the hornet....

looking at her swollen lips and face she looks kinda going thru the 247th 1. Thanks for the valentine wishes. Looking at the source this is good work.

I understand what you were going for, but I would've went a different way. I would've left the water background and instead of using the liquify tool. Just copy the lips to a new layer and then just resize them proportionately. If you make them big enough she would look part fish. Regardless nice entry and good luck!

What fun ... she is truly Ready to be Kissed!

no...no...no.. I think nobody want to kiss her because it just goes like the idiom saying : she has a 'BIG MOUTH..!

Fantastic image author!! Great work..!! A fav if ever i saw one

Well done Author. I love it. G/L.

Excellent pic, great work.

This is excellent.. Would love to see a SBS if possible Great job, really

Added an animated SBS Toothpick, hope it helps explain the making of the image. Sorry that the building of the fairy is not in it but I lost the PSD file for that.

really cool work!

Cool!
Reminded me of a similar entry ( Burning kiss- i think ) with the same fairy model & concept. The guy used different layers of cracked earth the one underneath was red and it looked like skin was pealing off. Veterans surely know it.
This is cool too, and i'm happy to see it since the old entry died with PST, and the user didn't come back.
But you entitled it: explosive kiss - in explosion the exploded parts either become smaller or stay the same, they don't increase size. I know the idea is from the tutorial with the exploded face, but many people stated that the flaw in concept is that bits shouldn't get bigger.

I agree, I've always thought that tut was wrong. The larger fragments should be closer to the source, and get smaller as they expand. Good entry, though.

nice work author

nice work author

Great work author...cool colors and the great mood...

great concept and result !!

This is FREAKING AWESOME!!!

Wicked-cool even!

GL to you!

How to destroy a tough guy with a blow of a kiss...

Love it ... he looks angry and/or astonished ... is that because she is blowing his mind? Or ... okay, I will leave it at that. There are children present!

This is what i call " MINDBLOWING "....gud luck author
