Well done
Maybe you could make the bear on the right a bit darker? IMHO it jumps out now.

This is a lovely image. I think the bear is fine the way it is, but I don't understand the woman standing on the bed. Still, I like it.

Got it. On second view I appreciate this even more; it's very atmospheric.

Nice work, good visual!

Conrgats Aiden!!

Beautifull ! Magical ! Good luck author

please add the used pictures in the step by step and the drawn items cause im pretty sure i saw that beanstalk before http://www.daz3d.com/i/shop/itemdetails/?item=3585 http://yaymicro.com/stock-image/beanstalk/933550 http://browse.deviantart.com/resources/?q=beanstalk#/d2icng5 http://browse.deviantart.com/resources/?q=beanstalk#/d2ritjp

Its a 3d image so the direction of the picture can vary depending how its placed and rendered.

I like your image a lot but you have to make sure you can use all the sources you have used and place links to all brushes that are not standard and the source pictures.

If you are not familiar with the contest rules then please read these. because its a shame if your work is removed because of things you didnt know. http://www.pxleyes.com/guidelines/photoshop/

I'm so sorry. I did not know they could not use 3D elements
Many of the brushes and elements used in this work are part of my stock that I have been collecting for months and years.
I have no source of them all, why not include them.

For these reasons I am compelled to withdraw work from the competition.

Future contests will read the rules well
regards

first off, i truely like the feel of this image, its so magical!

The smaller mushroom is placed behind the skirt of the girl while it should be in front of the skirt. You can tell by looking and comparing the grass distance between the other mushroom and the bottom edge of the image and the grass distance between the bottom edge of your image and the dress.

I dont see where you used your second source, the part of the road, u sure u used that?
Your sxc.hu source should be linked to the thumbnail page so we can see author information. (tree source)
the last 4 sourcelinks from sxc.hu in ur comments dont work, i think theres a mistake in the adress

wow this must have been a lot of work with all these sources and again its very magical

Thank you very much for your feedback Eladine
I changed the position of the skirt
I have reviewed the links and I think it is correct
I removed the source of the road, I put by mistake

Thank you for your words, have been working long hours but I love doing this kind of photo montages!

If you find any mistakes, please, tell me

there you go, I think you covered it all pretty much the source links work now too good job and welcome to pxleyes I do recommend everyone to look at this in highres, there are so many details to see.

Thank you!
I am glad to have found pxleyes.
It's a great way to improve

Very nice work, beautiful picture. High marks from me. Eldine is right, the high Res is a must see.Welcome to PXL author.

Thank you very much for your comment!

Awesome image author!!
this is my favorite!!! and welcome to the site.

Thanks!!!!

Thanks to everyone who supported this work.
Just to tell you that going to be withdrawn because the pattern used to make the dress is made from an illustration, not an image.

Now I have the dress coupled layers and to change (again) I have to redo the entire job. That would entail me several hours

Thank you all again.

It's true that illustrations done by someone else are not allowed but you shouldn't give up on this lovely piece. If you trace off the dress parts (with the pen tool or by hand) you can make a pattern similar to the one you used. Stock.xchng has a number of cut out flowers ( http://www.sxc.hu/browse.phtml?f=search&w=1&txt=cut+out+flower&p=1) you can use to make your own pattern, adjust color as you wish then place your pattern in the shape and warp a bit and add a little shading and touch up. Shouldn't take hours and you don't have to change anything else. Please give it a try we'd all like to see this stay in.

Last night I was thinking about the contest and my work.
I was sad and I don't wanted to continue at contest, but I readed to Eladine and Spaceranger and I think it's important fix errors and participate.

I had to redraw the part of dress. I liked before, but this is the final drawing.

Thanks

I am glad you decided to keep it in

It's great to see you made the changes and this lovely work will remain in the contest. You can see from the comments from all these good people that your work is appreciated. Welcome to Pxleyes, we look forward to seeing more from you!

Thanks for your words spaceranger!!! :_)

Your reworked entry is still magical and has a good visual flow. Very nice work, author, worth the extra time! Welcome to our site, look forward to seeing more of your creations.

Thank you very much for your comment!
We will see you soon!

congrats

Thanks!!!!

Congratulations, well done.

Thank you!!!!!

Congrats, nicely done

very very cool

nice idea, to me though the fact that the pages are obviously blank lets it down a little bit...

If you knew how difficult is to find a good source for books... The most of them are about bibles! And I couldn't use a bible for creepy tales!...

Not clear if it's on theme without a clear demonstration that there's an in-bounds alternative. Nevertheless, the thick shadows at the arm/page boundaries make the arms look unrelated to the book, especially the left-side hand which seems to be coming out of the spine/between pages of the book—what's that all about?

well, dan, it can be in bounds because the hands are reaching through the book in a desperate attempt to be freed...am i right?

Very atmospheric.. really nice work author

awesome... i always liked your work.... fav

awesome entry.. well done author..

please upload the sbs so that we can learn few things from your process..

Very cool image composition is spot on… do watch out for white lines around the pirate they can be distracting,Plus there are areas of the rigging that are fragmented you may want to add them back in.......

Great! It seems an illustration of a book... and I agree with iquraishi about the sbs...

..well done author.

this is awesome!
