nice idea well done!

very nice i dea ,but you can't see the photo from the contest ,good luck

This does have a nice child like quality. Good use of the source textures. Refreshing approach IMHO.

Lovely and clever ... this is a very fun image and I agree completely with Spaceranger ... the sense of whimsy and childlike simplicity is wonderful.

Great! There is a certain purity about it..... (Just like the author)

Nice image.

Sweet and tranquil, really childish

very nice approach author...good luck

freaking right on! great imagination

Great mood and lighting, but the feet look a bit too rounded, and it looks kind of "pregnant." I think you should reshape and refine the body a bit more.

The biggest problem is the darkness of the shadows. Lots of your details and work aren't visible even in the high res. You really need to view the sbs to appreciate the work involved with this piece. Really nice job and nicely written sbs. Good luck!

Stunning imagery ... everything about this is classy. The attention to detail, the quality of the cut, the blending; even the title all combine to make this an extremely impressive piece of art. Bravo! Goes to my favourites!

Great feel and nice detailed work. Isn't there a picture of a sarcophagus on its side available? this looks weird to me, the head doesn't look like part of the body and the small hand has a weird place if the sarcophagus is on his back. There's lots of work in the room that is almost not visible anymore, since you've got a really strong light you could create some strong highlights on the shiney objects to make them pop out of the image a little more. Good luck!

Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions. Ressiv, after studying the body for a while I realized that the chest was too high in relation to the head. I pushed it down a bit and added some shading for the arm and hand. Let me know if he needs to be tweaked more. I also added the highlights on the shiny stuff to make them stand out more. Thank you for the advice everyone!

Fantastic Image! ... I`m with Nator..hi-res is a must....well done author

Top entry for sure...good luck author

congrats

congrats

looks great

Well done. Very good start for the contest. GL author

wow not bad not bad at all

Well done author

Very good entry author,the most tricky part,SHADOWS,are handled well...And dog is fabulous little detail...very well done

A fantastic example, great source finds & excellent execution....very well done author!
I would be inclined to add a little blur to the vase and chair in the distance, as they seem that little bit sharper than the woman in the foreground but still a very good job

Well thought out and nicely composed. Very Nice job ......G/L Author.

The dog floating outside the window just kills me.... I had to giggle and smile!!

I love this! Really good blending if that's the word... I guess I mean to just say it looks real. LOL

great work

I love the dog!

The flying dog is very funny ! Flying effect ius perfect. Good luck author.

The dog outside is certainly well done, blends well with the background. Also the girl behind looks good with the light behind her. Maybe the shadow from the vase would cast closer to the viewer and othe rtiny nitpick is the wire from the lamp. Would be nice if that floats too , that would finish this image. Good luck!

Love it!

well done

Good work...the dog makes it even better.

very well done.., awesome job

Thanks everybody!

Very nicely done.. My only nitpick is that there should be more shadow on the floating objects, especially in the foreground. I think it will make the light from the window pop. Good luck!!

i thought this was gonna win for a while....congratrz for 2nd

Congrats Erica.
