Step 17 works for me...GL author!

Look at images (photos) of horse and riders...the woman is just too small.

I realize this is surrealism, so all bets are off, but the figure doesn't match the scale of the horse. All else is well done!

The author has done a pretty good job of replacing the shadow on left of the model with a highlight, which conforms to the light source. However, the cast shadow wouldn't be there, since the light source is positioned lower than the cliff. Hence, in this image, there would be no cast shadow on the cliff. Draw a line from the center of the background light source (lower left) through the area where the model's feet meet the cliff, and it will be obvious. Good marks for the concept.

Shadow should probably be a bit longer, considering the angle of the light source, and there's a horizontal bar shaped artifact in the sky at mid left. The tree & building are too small to be in scale with the bus, which is in the same plane with them. Author, this is a good concept, and you have plenty of time to post a revision...good luck!

Glad you could come back. GL.

Good idea & mood!

Might be good to remove your signature, author. Entries are supposed to be anonymous.

Great idea! Thanks for the grins!
(On second look, I think the door & stairs could be bigger, but I still love this).

Awwwwwww...

Congrats again!

Congrats!

Sweet one!

The bricks need to be aligned at the corners & the figure on our right should be flipped to match the light source. If you want to follow a tut, at least try to get the basics right.

Good one.

Tries to encompass realism & surrealism and does neither.

Ed Grimley's grandpa???

Excellent dramatic image, lighting & color...good luck, author!

Warp the bottom of the dress so it conforms to the contour of the rock.

Imaginative, but pretty lopsided as well.

Where's the uncut source pic?

Wow...great revision!

Very creative. SBS would help you a lot.

As Drivenslush has already pointed out, the lighting on half of your image is wrong. When considering making a realistic style image such as this, lighting is important. Check out this valuable tutorial: http://www.psdbox.com/tutorials/manipulation-secrets-3-shading-and-lighting/

Love the lion's expression! GL author.

Well done indeed. I know something like this can be a real challenge.

Good work here! I'd like to see brighter lights on the heads, but that's just me...GL author.

Author, you can resubmit with "Save hi res" checked...no reason it shouldn't work. GL.

Lookin' good! I'd try to give the cracks more of a sense of depth, and warp them to the contours of the ear. GL author.

No high res image?

Good idea, but the vertical flip line at left of the foreground figure is too obvious, and some areas are needlessly blurry.

Gee whiz author, where did those comments go?

Great work, and as Pearlie said, good source finds. GL author.

Very nicely done! (High res could be higher).

I guess slapping one image on top of another (badly) is your idea of creating a shrine. (YAWN). At least you could have tried adding an effect to make it resemble graffitti.

IMO the eyes are much better. Again, GL author!

Cracks in flesh seem to be random and not affected by light sources. Flames don't seem to be affecting those vulnerable wings.

This is a great image, but IMO whites of eyes are never pure white...there's always a touch of color. Look at other high res pics of eyes (RGB images of course) and see what I mean. It's a subtle difference, but would make your image almost perfect. GL author!

Sweet indeed. Can you please tell us a bit about it?

I love the fact that you could even FIND this shot! I think (for me anyway) that the scale reference actually detracts. GL author.

Sweet.

Excellent.

I've done it many times with one egg, just to prove people wrong. I seriously tried this with both boiled eggs & raw eggs & couldn't do it. I'm not giving you a bad vote, but I just don't believe this shot.

Good twist on the theme...imaginative and well shot.

I saw quite a few of these back in the 60s & 70s.
Good work, author.

Well chosen source photo, good color...GL, author!

Thanks for an informative SBS!
