Shadows are inconsistent with light source, column on right has no shadow at all...

Seems like only the Jupiter image might be in question, the others are fine. You can easily find a usable Jupiter pic from NASA if that's the case...good luck!

Well, it's certainly complex...I dunno what else to say about it...

The background hand seems unnecessary & distracting, but it's still a well made image. There could be a better shadow on the little finger...

Not bad, but fix the ear...

WOW! A UFO that looks like a license plate! Who knew?

Interesting but a bit blurry...

Cool...and while you're doing that, I can steal your stuff! Nice job, but the bag shadow looks a tad large (fat at top) and could be a few more degrees clockwise...

Interesting...not sure why it would need a cane...where's the other arm?
Edit: Yep, looks better with 2 arms.

Photo of girl is copyrighted, links 2 & 3 don't work...

Really nice blend, color & mood. House & car should cast shadows at the same angle as the vegetation...

You've got the same cracks running through the spine and ribs...
Edit: You could have fixed the crack thing since my comment. Guess you don't care to...you still have time.

Good idea, bad masking...highlight is on wrong side of dirt.

Show your original pic in SBS...

"Where time stands still"...Die mime, die! LOL

Nah, I've seen monster urinals like this that go all the way to the floor in older places, although the scale is a bit off. Good luck, author.

Sorry, didn't see the whole SBS before commenting...now I think this is even better!
(But post the sources for the grunge brushes).

Source 1 is from a blog & not usable. Please read http://www.pxleyes.com/blog/2009/06/how-and-where-to-find-legal-source-images/

This is really good! Where's the source link for the room?

Nice work! I might have liquified the chin to make it bleed into the smoke stream more, but it's a good job.

Don't you see the cast shadows from the railing at left??? Where is the wood lightest? On the LEFT side...shadows are on the RIGHT side...the light source is on the LEFT for cryin' out loud.

Light source is from left.

Nice idea & blend. Source for sky & sea?

Change the shadow...light source is from left. Foreground edges of railings are cut off...

Pretty dark, but well done...

Looks good except for above comment...

Nice idea, but a lot of hard edges on the cat, rough selections on the bridge, and you could have reconstructed parts of the cat's feet & blurred the shadow...

Congrats...well done!

Congrats, Henk!

The in-and-out of the frame thing is just a bit too clever...

Jaws, that's a bunch of tiny little eggheads...see the hi res...I think they're great!

Ark's kinda small, but it's a great idea!

Agree with Ponti, and shadow of butterfly is wrong...look at the other shadows...

Nope. It should be horizontally from right to left as the shadow at left of the figure.

Good blend & color work! The leg shadow is heinously wrong, though...look at the shadows in the background image...light is from the right.

You need to change the hue of the wall to create depth...it's too close to that of the bridge...this could be a much better image.

?.......................Take a DA pic and paste stuff onto it...uh-huh.

Good mood, but no high res version? Please fix link #1.

The author has clearly created the plants and the texture on the body of the fish from the given source, and used his drawing skill to supply the rest. There's nothing wrong with this submission.
PS: As I recall, this entry did quite well in the previous version of this contest with no objections.

I'd flip one of the statues & pay more attention to light & shadow, but nice image...

Goood job, except the broken "egg" is a lot bigger...

I'd think the metal feather would have to go, but not bad otherwise...

Water is pretty weak...should have some shadows or reflection, and the glow at left comes behind the pillars...highlights & shadows should be the same as pillars at right. Having said that, everything else is very well done...good luck.

Nice looking work. Just one suggestion: it would be even better if you had used a displacement map...good luck!

Light on book is from upper left. Light on owl is opposite...owl is still blurry.

Too colorful for a night scene, but nice image...

Nice lighting & shadow...

Well, since this is supposed to be "fun" I guess it's Ok for the perspective to be off...

So correct your spelling, already....

Author, you are not Feodora, so why attribute the pic?
