No matter how I look at your image and the source image, I can't see that you've used the smoke from the source image. Maybe you could expand the SBS and show that?

THX cmyk for your suggestions! I've changed it!

very nice...final product is great author...love the smoke explanation in SBS...gl

BEAUTIFUL!!! This is certainly a fav in my book!

Congrats for 3rd

Congrats...

Congratulations!

thx thx thx!

It's a great entry but you really CBR'd the source, meaning (Chopped Beyond recognition. There's no sign of the original source in your image. I had to go to the SBS just to see where you used it. I think you should have put more of the original source back into it

AWESOME!

I agree with jawshoewhah, but it is still a beautiful piece of art.

Yeah I actually agree with you guys now that you mention it. I really did want to take the time to make armor for him out of the source, but didn't have the time
Is there a way to take down your own entries?

Oh this is great and I think you can do whatever you like as long as you have the SBS to show your work. I like this a lot, and sorry jaws, I just think you should be able to do whatever your heart desires with the starting image.

Look, CBRing isn't against the rules but a lot of people give lower scores for it. And I'm sorry I disagree with you Emik. IMO, if you didn't need the source to make the image you really didn't use it. It defeats the purpose of a source image contest.

Author. Do not take your entry away, you used part of the source image to make your entry. You had the idea, although some times it is better working with the whole image. I think you did a good job, and spent a lot of time pulling your brains out of your head, just to make this beautiful image. I have seen worst CBR entries. I wish you good luck!

Author,wings creation is fantastic,final product is very good,but usage of the source image is to minimal...this could be made with any image...When i saw your SBS i had that wow thing...wings are perfectly...U could made some flying creature with that and put it on top of containers or to construct something else with source image...In that case u could have another amazing entry...Any how this is very cool final product and i wish u best of luck

got my vote very nice Author

Hey everyone I really apreciate all the comments. Glad you like it dispite the lack of lots of source. I was wondering how much I am still aloud to edit? Is it ok if I spend time adding more source image in? Or is it to late to make any major changes? Like I keep saying i totally agree, I intended for pretty much th entire body to be source image but got to busy with work to spend more time on it.

I would remove the yellow edges from the stars

Thanks for your comments. I removed the yellow edges.

cool work...gl
