Truly scary image. Gives me the creeps but a perfect image for B&W ... looks like an outtake from a 1950's movie!

niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice, my kinda piece....psychotic!

...... lil nitty pick though, IMO I`d tone down the dark parts of the texture, especially overlapping the doorway, my eye was a little too drawn to them.

Oh man, there was this weird game my nephews used to play on their small PS2s and you had to run through all these corridors of an old hospital while all these genetic experiments chased you.. this has the exact feel... EEEeEEEeeeeeeeEEEEEEKKKKKKK!

Creepy and cool. Nice job, author!

hehehe gruesome, my fav!

wow,what a perfect scary entry...sometimes i go to this place in my nightmares...well done author

killer entry ..........

Spooky and well done, it gave me the creeps = )

He he he.. Nice 1! GL!

I had a hunch it was you author.

Congrats on 1st

Ohohoho! Jade congratulations!

Congratulations! Wonderfully creepy 1st lady ;-D

Big Congrats!

Congrats Jade very creepy

congratulations...

Congrats!!

congrats for the 1st place

Try to say that 10 times fast - Bench by the bench, lol. Nice work = )

I decided to enlarge the girl a little bit...

Bird seems to be the hero of creation. Perspective needs attention!!!

cool work author...nice usage of the texture...gl

Composition suffers since viewers 1st stop point is the shadow cast on the bench - which has no relevance imo.
A good idea is to Crop your image so that we can only see a part of the Big bench on which the bird is sitting, and the entire small one. Crop it from the right side of the pic to a few cm after the first bench leg.
You don't need 3 parts of your image , and you'll transfor it to a portrait-mode, which is more dynamic than a landscape orientation.

@greymval... thanks for the suggestion... i will try to consider that...

I hope this gives justice to the tiny girl as the main subject...

Im new to photoshop so any suggestions are appreciated...Thank you guys

Just dont tell me it completly sucks..I know its not as good as most but Im learning and I figure the best way to learn is to take on the challenge of what the contests require..lol

when you are resizing hold shift. this will keep the pictures dimensions. The cabin is misshapen. Unless that was your intent. And never forget shadows. Shadows are very important and they add that realistic effect, for example the lynx and the deer. they look cropped in.. if you add shadows itll take ur eyes off of the fact that its just pasted in there.
youll get better dont worry.

Thanks I didnt know about the shift thing. I appreciate it.

Image is small and hard to judge like that. Next time try and add an image that is minimum 600px wide, even larger if you can.

My tip would be to try to avoid having White Gaps so maybe will the White bg with some wood texture to give an effect of it sitting on a table but that's just my opinion. Best of luck !

Solkee made a good suggestion. If you can upload a higher res, it could be judged better. I've not heard of this dreamsuit plugin. Honestly, more of a sepia tone would portray an old photo look, IMO. (in my opinion)

Its called auto fx dreamsuite. Its pretty cool. It has some cool features and is very easy to work with. You should check it out. I dont remember where I got it.

At the first sight image looks very good...Its shame for small resolution...mood and the colors are very lovely...U still have the time author to re- create this entry in higher resolution...with that entry will have better contest score for sure...best of luck

I agree with Tooth, place a wooden texture behind the picture, tilt the photo add drop shadow from layer styles, go to filters render- lighting effects, choose spot light and place it so that it looks like a lamp is above the photo but outside the seen part.
You can make the photo a sepia with an overlaying brown color.

A good start. Just keep working on it ... it takes time to learn but lots of people here can help and the suggestions are (usually) good In the end it is well worth the effort! Welcome and most important ...
HAVE FUN!

Very nice mood, good image. GL.

the broken glass looks a little unrealistic, otherwise it is a great entry

cool work author...GL

ummm, neat

This image was just asking to be Chaplin. What a great job you've done. Congratulations!

chaplin rules! I love it! well done author!

Cool idea,and nicely done,even tho i think the skin tone is a little to dark

i knew someone would turn that statue into Chaplin lol, gl

Fabulous idea author...one of the best is the contest for sure...I adore your eye for uniqueness...best of luck

Kindness of you, Neb... I think there are others better than mine!
