The Well of Transmogrification - created by arca

It's Millennium Night at the Well of Transmogrification. Only once every thousand years can the Night Flyers change. Few survive the transformation but the imperative is strong and the Well draws them to it's darkest depths, to perish or change.

Thank you to Lockstock (figure base) and Falln-Stock (bird claws).

The rest of the images are my own or hand drawn (head dress, face, bird, etc.)

Edit: Cropped image to a less square format, removed bird, lightened image overall and reduced intensity of light swirls from well. None of this is in the SBS . ^U^

NOTE: There is nudity in the SBS and in the original source pack from Lockstock (5 years and 3092 days ago)

Brilliant idea and good execution, some how the colors and subjects suggested me you're the author, and bingo! I have some suggestions for this work, even though it's really good now. Some how I feel you missed one intermediate point, this is when the bird land in the well. I had a bit difficulty to figure out what's going on and I think because of that missing part, and if you have one more creature that totally separated from the well, that will even be more fantastic. The second thing is about the composition, it's quite neat now, but you still can improve...

langstrum says:

Because you chose the portrait frame, the way of arranging the birds in a curve queue like this is reasonable, but on the other side, the new creature is flying into the area that limited by this curve. Regarding the idea of this piece, to me, it's a kind of incomplete transformation. How about using landscape frame? so you can arrange the birds on the left and the new creature on the right, you have wide landscape and be able to modify the two parts of the sky to fit the subjects. Just from my angle. Wish you the best of luck with this contest !

Thanks langstrum, as usual your comments are much appreciated. This was a hard one; my original image did have a bird flying into the Well but I took it out as I was not happy with it but you could be right ... maybe I need to do another photo shoot with crows as the one I had just didn't look right. About the format ... maybe if I change it (back) to Landscape it would look better. I will have to give that a try! Again thanks!!!

And thank you to everyone for the wonderful comments

GolemAura says:

it's a very elegant image. I'm sure you're going to get it for lack of source, but sometimes you just have to express yourself.. and in this..you did quite well... I LOVE IT

nemanja says:

great image... i like purple... that is my weaknes... lol

slayyou says:

i love this only thing i would change is the background it makes your awsome shape look flat.

ponti55 says:

This looks very nice, good luck!

dustfinger says:

Yes, "elegant" is the word for this. Well constructed. I Only think, you lost something of the beautifull colors in the process (they were still there in step 5).

spaceranger says:

Great image but where has the source gone? Your technique is good but really you lost the source in the process which is a shame. Safe this kind of entries for the theme contests or make sure the source is still there. You didn't need this source to make this image.
