Good job on a difficult source to work with! The perspective on the platform thing makes it look bent...

Interesting idea...

Water droplets are too small...kinda looks like dandruff or something...and there would be more in front of the face and shirt.

Great idea! make some cloud edges in front of the buildings less opaque, and refine the top edges of the buildings and this will be better. Good luck!

The oval things are two dimensional...

Needs a major splash, , not just a few drops...

Because it's an easy cheat...

Never mind about fixing the name, fix the shadows, and make a realistic image.

Nice choice of source pic, and good blend!

Author, much better now! And people, why do the shadows have to match the light source? What's the tiltle of the contest??? Sheesh...

Aside from being an excellent idea, the use of source for color puts it over the top...high vote!

Not much use of the source...this could have been done without it...

Sheesh...

Pretty good work on the face.

Looks flat, and needs more than just a drop shadow...

Good image, but Photobucket isn't a legitimate source...you can probably find a similar pic & resubmit.

Good work...the cobwebs are a nice touch!

Puppy needs a better shadow, otherwise it's a fun image.

Good and creepy!

Well, this version is on theme, but it's too filter heavy...

Good thinking on a difficult source to work with! (Just line up the zebra's back with the original image...)

@ Dragoncide: The contest is WRONG SHADOWS! Get it? Nice job, author...

Lovely to see this again...great blend, excellent mood & color!

Oh no, even lens flares in the new version...the whole kitchen sink.

You definitely need to find a better drug dealer...

Simple but well done...

Way too dark & blurry...

Masking is bad...fix that and you've got a nice image...

Keep going, you're halfway there...

The light is silly, and your image is distorted...the orange skin could use some thickness.

How did you make Saturn? You need to change its highlight to match the angle of light on the town...

Bad case of Corn Flakes Face...

I'd remove the shadows from the background, and maybe use something more than just a gradient...
EDIT: Much better background! Now you need some shadows of the snakes on the head & neck...
EDIT 2: Lookin' good now.

Hard edge on hair is distracting, and it's a bit too filter heavy, but over all not bad...

Good and creepy!

ROFL...a knucklehead!

LOL...where's the duck? And the guy at upper left has a much darker shadow...

Pretty good thinking! I'd rather play tennis, myself. Woodrow Wilson said: "Golf is a game in which men attempt to manipulate a ball with instruments ill designed for the purpose".

Great job of finding a good outside source pic! I can just imagine someone getting a ride in that sucker!

Get rid of the PXL source pic & make a background.

Excellent 3D work!

Nice job!! You did the best you could, I know, but the eyes are quite pixelated. But of course you knew that. Still, at low res it works just fine.

Great image, just blur the shadows...

Good idea, needs more highlights & shadows...

Sweet job...good luck!

Nice job...needs to be a bit more saturated IMHO.

Needs more color...too much brown.

Boards need to conform to the curves of the ship...

Pandering never looked so good...
