I really like this image, author! I have one suggestion for you though...slowly lighten the main shadow as it gets further from the bench. Look at the bench shadow. See how soft and light it is? Try and replicate that look for the main shadow. Right now, it looks a bit too uniform and dark. Just a thought...

Great idea I like it a lot.
My suggestion is that you clean the man and bench, it's not that pretty in high res and I agree with pixelkid regarding the shadow it should be a little more soft and light.
But overall it's really cool.

surreal images are wonderful part of artistic creations and this is no exception... nice entry

I like the mood and the idea author..GL

The context of image is awesome. Great Work

Not bad, but the hi-res image isn't any bigger.

I loved the work in general, the colors and surrealism. Well done!

Thank you for your feeback.

@ CMYK46: I have low bandwidth internet hence I upload low resolution image.

this is cool.. especially the work you've done with the hairs..

Dramatic change, nice work!

well done and nice blend, hi res is still small though.

I recommend making her irises round. That got lost in the reshaping. Good luck!

Wow! Love it, it looks as she is truly oriental! Best of luck!

KatanazStock, assuming that you're the same person as the one from DA, you'd know that on the front page of your profile you allow people to use the stock outside DA. I cant say anything about the 1st point, but the 2nd one shouldnt be an issue here.
Author, good luck!

EDIT: KS, feel free to define "commerical and/or profitable use", s'il vous plaît

USING OUTSIDE OF DA:
As of 28th of July 08, you now have permission to use our stock OUTSIDE of DeviantART!! This is brilliant news, and I'm sure many of you agree as in the past we'd sadly turned down hundreds of requests.

However, when using our stock outside of DeviantART you MUST include credit and a link back to our direct profile page here on DeviantART.

Note: katanaz`s last visit to deviant art was 28 weeks ago, the real katanaz would have checked thier DA account for notes before writing this garbage!

I will assume that your lack of knowledge about your own rules implies that you are an imposter!.....A fellow pxl member trying to have entries removed to make way for your own perhaps? Well I`m sure the mods will have access to IP address`s & lets hope you haven`t already tried to red flag this image under your own name, whilst using the same uneducated reason for removal...that would be a telling clue wouldnt it?

nice again

Fascinating and great work ... it looks quite "real" if a pie chart of water without anything spilling out can look real! Seriously though ...nice image.

Cheers for your comments. Thought about putting some spillage in but decided against it.

this is very good...I'm gonna try that tutorial

Thought I should re-comment to let you know I wasn't suggesting you needed spillage! Definitely ... no spillage ... it is perfect without! The clean edges really add to the whimsy of the image. I love the clean lines and only mentioned it because I liked that about it .

Now THIS is cool!!! I would have never thought of manipulating an image in this way. GL!

Author, by far this is one of your best.

Nice slice

very nice work author...gl
