Fits the "Cyberpunk" nomenclature perfectly to me, nice work!

NIce entry!
Maybe some attention-points? The dog looks a bit transparent, the orange chair is shining through and the back of the head (of the boy) is a bit to bright IMHO. For the rest: great entry, good thinking... in short:

Very Cute

Thanks Robvdn, I fixed the problems.

Looks better IMHO

Great concept, good execution, and you did it without using pre-posed, pre-lit, and pre-costumed pics from DA, so major kudos to you, author!

I will have to bow down here and totally agree with (CMYK46) about the DA stuff. This is in the true spirit of what photoshop is all about, not to mention the skill and artistic touch in bringing it all together. I really love this image, can I say love, sounds weird, but this is Totally Awesome, there that is better!

You guys are making me feel a bit weird-- in a good way . thanks.

Great concept and realisation! Good luck!

nice work

Love the aluminum cans in the background...nice thinking outside the box on this one!

this is simply amazing author! i love how interested in the computer the dog is lol,great lighing too

This kiddo could be just another weird character from the Tankgirl comics. Well done for sure! Good luck!

Fantastic work here, very well done and GL

Perfect work author...Very cleaver thinking and great mix of elements...This entry fits perfectly in the Cyberpunk spirit...well done

Stunning! This is the future, I'm afraid...

Very good integration of the sources. I love the beer cans that were also included.

Great job with this!

Congrats for your first place, Glockman!

Congratulations

Congrats Glockman very clever

thanks all

Congrats!!

congrats!

congrats!

Well deserved win.

great use of source

cool idea GL

I just wonder about the model,....dont you think that she should be bit smaller or that flying thing in a higher position or ......aarggh.....maybe it is just my eyes that are wrong to see the compo,.......but one thing for sure it is great work,.....

I didnt think of that, the model, but yes I will try to make different adjustments this week on this, thanks dek !

looks A LOT like a book illustration!!! Kudos!!! author.. good luck

Good image. The tentacle behind the figure makes it very hard to judge the shadows but for sure the dark comma shaped shadow to the right of the figure on the ground needs to go. You're on your own for the rest.

Hey author, great work, my gf loves it.
Tentacles' shadow should be united with the main shadow which should be a perfect elipse. Because of the angle of the light you won't see the projection of the upper side.
Imo, it would add a great effect to make a shadow of the bubble as well, use this as reference:

thanks guys,and greymval thanks for the advice!

interesting!

It definitely looks better, good job!
I don't wanna be pushy, but you should know that the shadow for a suspended object equals the length of an object when light source is above.
So the dark elipse should be same length as the ufo, and the light elipse same length as the diameter of the bubble ( which is an energy shield, right? ).

ooo,,,
you are right againnn I spend a lot just for these shadow

I love it. I love the concept, i love the execution and i love the title. Really well done author

Wild! GL!

Very cool surrealistic image!

Author, here's a good link on casting shadows.
http://www.photoshop-pack.com/details/Casting_Realistic_Shadows/11041
I know there are others, but I can't find 'em right now. Good luck!

Love the illustration look. I personally don't get the title.

Shadows continue to be a problem. The figure's shadow seems to be cast in a different direction than the UFO's. A line drawn from the center of the UFO's shadow through the center of the UFO itself doesn't continue on through the center of the light source. The tentacle shadows don't blend that smoothly into the UFO body's shadow.

With the strong back-light source, the front lighting of the UFO (and especially its underside and the tentacle connections) and the side/slightly-front lighting of the figure seem unnatural.

cmyk: thank you for the link , it was usefull !
dan: the title cames from buble , if you look at source 3, the sky is in the buble but I blend it at hard light mode and I losee the shape of the clouds, I think I will change this too
for the shadow you are right, but I know now what the problem was
the proble is the shadow of the girl in originaly source , I manipulate the photo ....but I didnt manipulate the shadow og the girl!
I think that if I wash out a little the shadow of the girl and with the right perspective for the other shadows that will be much better!I will try.
Thank you again all, I learn a lot from this entry and this is good!

Very very nice work author...i did not saw previous edition,but this one look very good...best of luck

Fabulous job author...Mood is perfect...well done

this is very lovely! i love the medieval look to it!

nice idea and lovely work ......all the best to u..........

Its so simple but I love it!

Love this, author, it's so creative! Great image for the background, and then the use of instrument parts with the fireworks is fantastic - I can almost hear the music and feel the beat. Cool circular piano keys. It reminds me of an abstract piece of fabric for curtains. Well done.

Thank you!
