Makes me think of Pink Floyd for some reason. I like it

Wow! This is very cool! Art I would actually hang in my home!

Very nice work, but SBS would be nice, and who is the artist you are coping?

Emik...did you check the source links? its Son Of Man by Rene Magritte.
and i didn't do an sbs because it seems pretty simple to me. i just used 3 sources and put them together. a little gradient overlay and then a texture source. I guess if i have to, i will make one, but it will be a very boring sbs. cut and paste, cut and paste, cut and paste. and then blend. *sigh*
JC Freak: thank you so very much i adore pink floyd, so i'm quite happy it made you think of that.
And Rbsgrl thank you as well. i was quite happy with the final results

I have to say only well done...this is hit in the contest target center...best of luck

I would like to see SBS : - )

okay okay. tonight i will put together an extensive sbs. :lol: proper cut and paste style.

Good concept, but why not also imitate the original background?

I believe in adding in my own sense of flair. I couldn't bring myself to completely copy someone elses work. At all.
But its early in the show. Perhaps something might still change. It took all I had not to change the green apple to a red one.

Great .... love his work and your interpretation.

hot cha cha cha..

and for those of you who requested the sbs, check it out. its added now.

Thanks so much to everyone for the wonderful comments. i appreciate them all.
and CMYK..i decided not to change the background after all. :P

Great job with this counterfeit. Beautiful result.

weird spirit...

Fantastic job ! IMO, you could desaturate the model a little to make it go better with your background. I think she's a little too white, compared to the pale blue of the background. But, that's just IMO. GL !

Edit : Better, GL !

EDIT: Thanks Aqiil, I liked your suggestion so I have changed the colouring a bit.

Nice mood and composition. She will have frostbite though.

@pingenvy ... She is a spirit so I think she will be alright The bird is probably the one with the cold feet, that is why it is standing on her dress

Pretty!! The mood here is soooo nice
