Congrats for your second place, Akassa!

Isn't that a giant bird ?....nice place.

The reflection of the mountains is shifted to the left...

I think the reflections are too sharp from the mountain in the water...

nice!!

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

hehehehehehe good Job

awesome!

very creative

nice composition but it would have been more original if you took a forest image and placed a model there

Love the tranquility and nice mood of this image

Nothing like a girl and her pig!

Life...death....I've heard Art described the same way. It's all subjective anyway. Great image.

The "dog" is the only one who looks ready for battle! Good luck.

Lots of texture.....I like.

I checked out the SBS and it helped me to understand how you reduced her age. Very well done and lots of work is right! How is this off theme? Perfectly good to me! Good luck.

I would like to see the "older" version in your SBS. The mouth needs to be shifted screen right a bit and if you use the transform feature I'm sure you could get it more into perspective. All in all I like it...off theme or not!!!

very nice change , GOOD LUCK

it's not a bad thing the background looks as if you are looking straight up to the sky with your head all the way back---that makes me dizzy.

I'm dizzy now nice job

to improve this image you may like to explore a colour overlay or the such like at the last stage. this would give a colour connection between all your sources and take that CHOP PIECED together look. creating a more "REALISTIC" creation. good idea and nice images used. GL

good marks for staying on theme.

But overall, very nice composition, perfect title, super usage of just the right elements from source image, I LOVE IT! Best of luck!

Taken into consideration the difficulty of the image in contest....I think you've done a great job. Taken into consideration that there are only a few entries in this contest....I am pretty sure you could win this one! Therefore it's just a matter of you wanting your image to get better regardless of contest's results and chances. So...my opinion is this image could rock with a slight few details improved. And I suggest: 1. Soften edges of the lamp. 2. Try to add some shadows to the birds for it looks too blue all over. 3. Be more daring with the light beam 4. Maybe a bit of high pass filter.

Ontheme or offtheme I really don't mind, it's a good image Even if it's pulled out of the contest you can be proud of this author and that's just what it's all about: you made a damn good image! (but I hope it stays in)

Nicee!!!

Wow... very nice..!!!

u did work with liquefy. the rest was set and good sources i think is out the theme,any way good work and good luck.

I can see what you were trying to do from your SBS author... it might help if you add some baby fat to her by gently bloating her between her joints and adding fat dimples.. high marks from me because I figured out what you were trying to do.. but i can also understand how some weren't sure if it's on theme.. good luck and you did some very good work here

neat

the girl looks a little blurry, while the rest of the image is sharp...

she does look short and fat; I don't know about young...and her siluette is a bit distorted

I think this can be seen as ontheme. From a more grown up girl to a little girl. I might have made her head a bit bigger compared to the body, so it will be more in kiddie proportions (and maybe reduce her breasts a bit more). Good luck!

very cool! i like this

I like the image, i think the blending is nice, i wonder if Eladine is right though . Good luck!

im not sure how this is on theme.. you made a work with a little fairy, not an age reduction o.o;

its a nice idea but they dont look like they are batteling

great blending!

wow.

wow very wizardyly! lov it love these kinds o' images!

love it!

awwwww! so cute

Mixed light sources, bad shadows...

Sorry, but when you use a figure with a silly pose, you end up with a silly image. Technically this is very good, but it made me snort milk out my nose....

to take a old person and show what they looked like young. don't get me wrong this is a very nice image, just a tad off theme.

looks better all ready but still i would suggest to use the warp tool on the flowers on her leg... the root arround her leg looks odd but i cant put my finger on it how to change it

verry nice

grt use of source very beautiful...............

grt use of source................................nice colors...................gl..........

I can guess who this is JUST because of the use of flowers xD Good luck!!

its a nice image and i rly had to see this in high res, thnx for adding the high res . but i think if you put a lil more work in it its gonna be much better... the flowers arround her leg ar not in perspective (i asume they suposed to be going arround her leg?) try bending the flowers at the sides of her legs a little with warp tool, and the shadows too light. i also would suggest to vary the colours of the flowers just a lil bit (near colors but not exact same.. that makes it look more natural) i dont know what you pur arround her other leg and arm but that arround her leg really looks weird. what is it? maybe add a bow for arroudn the pigs neck in light pinkish so the flower there seems attached and not just pasted on since is the excact same flower as the others, you might want to change the petals a little maybe.. holding off my vote for now... I like the mood you gave to the image... goodluck
