looks really nice, but i thnik there are too many stars

Stunning image! This will be a fav for me! Much luck!

A planet in front of the mountain...?

That was what I wanted it to be, after all, it is a fantasy scene.

nice one!

very nice

great work,gl author.

Welcome, with time one tends to get better, not my case ,jajajajajaja

Its a very good start with one week experience. Even though the clouds and the plastic wrap filters in PS can give a reasonable effect, you could definitely achieve more realism using addtional stock photos for clouds and water. You definitely have the potential here so keep working at it and you work will certainly grow exponentially.

I agree never use photoshops Render clouds, they don't do justice as does placing other clouds or using different brushes. Better than me and i've had it for a couple months haha

I think you should have used real water and clouds, to give a better realistic feel

very nice entry

Very nice. The girl in front doen't seem to go. You could almost take her out, she seems blury, and leave the one on the mushroom. Over all very nice.

Blaine, she is blurry on purpose for the depth of field. If you look at the focus on the leaves you will see that only the mushroom and the fairy sitting on it are the subjects in focus.

put her closer, and blur her a tiny bit more to get a better effect

NIcely Done!

very nice

Good idea, very erocative, i love it!

Lovely, gl

Very nice idea but the strips look a little fake to me

What idea, people?! Stitches'n'lips huh... now where have i seen it before?.. oooh riiiiight, IT'S BEEN DONE A ZILLION TIMES!!! ure lucky ive no vp author

Thanks Akassa. Stoli4naq...yes it's been done a zillion time, kind of like butterflies and faires I suppose. I feel with the the colors of the image, along with the symbolic "stitches", to be more representative of my feelings. Thanks for the input and be glad your freedom of speech has been heard.

I like the color. The eye of the needle needs some work (bottom seems to be transparent) and the SBS is incomplete.

Oh that must hurt...lol...nice

Ouch That Looks like it Hurts, Well done

What about some blood dripping? Soooo gothic... Good work

Nice job, author! The needle really accents this!

This is a stunning image. GL

oh god i hate these things.. i agree the needle adds an extra punch! really good

Ouch! Nice work author!

cool! gl

cool

i love the whole stitching look, something that i haven't tried myself yet, and you don't get better if you don't try anything for yourself author goodluck.

beautiful image.gl

love the contast of the lips and the blue background.

ouch! wouldn't like that to happen to me.

really great pic

Congrats

Nice job! Two top 7 placements!!!

Hmm i'm not sure i understand what's going on in the image... good luck though.

You should go back to the psd fiel and save it in a higher resolutions, the low graphs take away the flavor.
