Nicely done indeed...good luck!

Try to blend the body & tree better...color is good.

Claws on cheeks...?
EDIT: Looks better now.

Try to find usable sources. http://www.pxleyes.com/blog/2009/06/how-and-where-to-find-legal-source-images/

Now that you've fixed the light source I'd like to repeat what I've said on a similar entry: "Enough with the pissing, already! We've had an entry removed for simple nudity...I'd rather see a human body in its natural state than piss or shit humor." And author, this is not to take anything away from your work. It's a comment on the values of this site. Too bad you had to get caught in the middle of it.

Enough with the pissing, already! We've had an entry removed for simple nudity...I'd rather see a human body in its natural state than piss or shit humor.

Flip the dwarf to match the light source...

Thanks for not relying on DA stock, author !

Love it all except the silly butterfly things, but then it's surrealism...(cough).

Bad shadows...looks like 3 different light sources, but the mood is good.

Too much smudge tool, cracks don't follow the form...

Doesn't look much like a globe, but interesting idea...

Fix the woman's shadow...light is from upper right...

Use Edit/Transform/Distort to get the goggles to fit better, and try to color match the lenses. Also think about making a strap to hold them on...

Displacement map would make the contour of the scales more realistic...

Pretty good job. Next time you make a SBS include pics of each step.

Nice work making the beads look like they're falling, but there would be a dual shadow...one for the beads, as you have, and another lighter shadow for the glass.

Sorry, the waterline would be straight, and my other comments stand as well. (Maybe I could let you slide on the ripples, but not likely).

Looks better without type...now fix the edges on the swan's necks and you're good to go.

Match colors of head & body...

Waterline wouldn't be curved, water would have ripples, reflection of bobber should move to our right...string would have a reflection too.
(If you made the bobber you should show how in the SBS).

The new hummingbird looks much better...GL author.

Nice use of the tut...

Thanks George...congrats!

Try again with the highest resolution pic of the hummingbird...it looks pretty bad. The rest is good...

I hope you meant this to be funny...

Congrats!

Congrats!

Congrats!

Red flag your entry & ask the mods.

Looks good! Just work on the edges a bit, and remove the smudge near her leg... (Maybe you could have used higher res images).

Hilarious in a very disturbing way...

White areas are pretty blown out compared to the source pic, but not bad...

Looks good, but both source links lead to the same image...

Needs SBS...

The water & little snow bits would be pouring out...

SBS would improve your score...

Then you need a link to wherever you got the brush if it was made by someone else.

Excellent...really funny! Try to lighten the shading on her white parts...look at the white on his face & foot...

Clean/blur the edges and you'll have a better pic...not sure the type adds anything to it...

A link to the skull image you used. Read the guidelines.

Not all the petals should be blurred...consider depth of field.

Shadows?

Too bad about the lens flare...the rest is good...

Dancer pic is copyrighted. Please read http://www.pxleyes.com/blog/2009/06/how-and-where-to-find-legal-source-images/

Source for skull?

Poor use of source...

Background is too blown out, but not a bad idea...

Author, please look at the small box you've created. The shadows on the face are on the left. The light source you've created has opposite shadows...

Great to see this again!
