I really like what you have done here, particularly with the flaking paint texture, however I feel the dark lower section of the hull looks a little odd because the paint isn't flaking.

It's better but, I think if you followed the curve of the timbers rather than the painted dark section it would be more effective.

Where's Johnny Depp? hehehe.. great job

That looks much better

Congrats on third place

Congrats!

Congrats Angel!!

Oh dear Great job

Renders are not useable sources.

5.6. 3D Renders or Illustrations as Source:
Using other people's 3D renders or illustrations (even with permission and no matter in which form they are offered) creates a false impression of your artwork. So 3D renders or illustrations can not be used as sources, unless they are entirely created by yourself. Only acceptable non-illustration brushes and clip art may be used, but you need to mention them as a source too. Don't use an image that has been altered by the source owner nor an entire work created by someone else.

The use of 3D wireframes or mesh has always been allowed. The author did not use 3D renders but rendered them using the wireframes to create the final image as is shown in the SBS.

5.7. Models Created with 3D Programs such as "Poser":
If you use a 3D program to create a model or render (eg. with Poser), post a screenshot of the wireframe, so we can verify it's not someone else's work.

Congratulations... nice job...!

Congrats Randy!!

Congrats you rendering renderer hehehehehe

Nice clean chop, but the rocket exhaust doesn't look like it's coming from beneath the ship, but rather the side nearest the viewer.

Fun swirly whirly effect just love the lighting
Placing the upside down "house" top point infront of fire blast then experimenting with removing with a circular erase brush might help make and add to an illusion of the fire coming out of the saucer/house. At the moment, it looks like the exhaust is kind of floating in front of the spaceship and not coming out of it from the bottom.
The people and car are spectacular, the texture effect is awesome. The clouds as well. Great Job!

I am added to the same critics you have from CMYK and Drivenslush, just correct the exhaust and you will have a wonderful image. Nice work.

cooollllll... like the effects. The smoke looks real. the whole scene is realistic!

Congrats!!

Congrats!

Congrats!

Good source finds! They might stand out better against a different background. The black rocks against the blacks in the foreground figures is visually confusing.

I know is a rather odd sight, but I couldn't find any other background which would give me this "lifeless beach" feel. Thanks for the remark anyways!

Have no Idea, but this reminds me of the time I'd show up at work and everyone knew I had the only working SKU Module LOL hehehe great job

What CMYK advised you is true. The rock located on the left side of the image, takes some view away from the hat of the skeleton. You could have erased it and cloning with the sky... a little blur would have helped better... good luck.
