Like the floating head.

Great image like the overall look -- maybe just a touch of blur or softening on the edges of the figures would improve his a bit -- edges seem a bit sharp in hi res

thanks Alan, did a quick rub over the edges

Intriguing image. My only point would be that the blood looks a little 'plastic' to me. Maybe make it less transparent and thinner (and add some drops here and there).

My Fav!!!...

Very well done author! Good work and best of luck!

Curiouser and curiouser... interesting concept for sure. Nice job on the blood - I'm thinking the other two represent the sweat and tears to climb that corporate ladder.

Congrats!!

Great composition, i think you forgot to add some shadows tho :P

Very cool looking little guy, but the tusk on the elephant source image was pretty crappy. Maybe you could give him a better tusk to improve your final image.

thank you both for those thoughts .. I have adjusted it

Big difference now...good luck!

very cute =P

Cool. Minority Report cool.

Very original author. Great visionary sense as well

Agreed, nice concept and "simple at its best" execution.

Beautiful work author! Nice and clean!

This is a brilliant concept and design! Great find on the shapes and model, well put together.

Congrats!!

very creative

super clean work here.. love the tracers, very well done

Nice work...very dramatic lighting!

amazing, great sources choice, very neat work, right on the theme, briefly i love it, just one tiny suggestion, if you make the fans of the aircraft swirl would make the image more dynamic, good luck

I like the light, very good job!!
But I'm with Orientallad, try to make the propellers with movement. Maybe with radial blur?

Great image author!

WONDERFUL . great take on the theme, good source images prop motion would be a bonus as already highlighted. THUMBS UP AUTHOR>

Excellent choice of subject/history lesson, and very dramatic image. Pretty cool view of the action above the clouds.

Excellent work, great mood, blending and effects.

this is spectacular...i love mostlly everything in it man...good job

Very nice!!!

Excellent entry and great subject. You can't say enough about the courage and determination of the British people in WWII. Using older less capable aircraft like the Hawker Hurricane and the newer and one of the ten best fighters in history the Supermarine Spitfire they fought overwhelming odds. This makes a nice tribute to those tenacious British fighter pilots!

In retrospect you'd have a much more realistic image if the props were given a radial blur, but it's still good work.

O-K War-bird fans, upon popular demand I have made an edit. Thank you all for the positive feed back and favorites. After some careful deliberation and pressure opacity smudge brush work I have added some blur to the blades on the props. Spaceranger, you are exactly right about the Hawker Hurricane, now those Hurricane drivers had some brass kahuna's for sure.

Fantastic piece of work author...Great mix of different sources and outstanding final result...Instant fav from me...Best of luck

Whoo ya! Get 'em tiger. This seems out from a movie. Great clean work author. High scores.

Amazing!!..

One of your best works..... Patience and imagination at their best.... good luck!

I almost miss the chance of casting my vote and fav but luckily I made it specially to this wonderful entry.

Props look lots better now, great job!
