Very nice attention to detail in this

as a modern Archimboldo, beavo

you are getting the right expression, bravo

very good idea bravo

Looks very well done, good job author.

Light is coming from upper right; therefore, the ceiling on the foreground should look darker because of the door crossbar. Anyway, nice picture!

Looks like real! great job!

very good, bravo

Really nice source, colors, lighting, and shading. Top shelf entry!

Imagination and a great amount of talent to get something like this done. It shows us that even with images that do not look that good for Photoshoping them. I takes just a click on your brain to change the image into something apealing and nice. Good colors and light. Good luck author. (Waiting for that "click" on my brain!)

Dogs and bikes, what better combo?! Nice job, author.

Oh!.... great... nice pic... amazing....

HAHA love it!!

that is the right place of the source image ..... Hi5
and Fav. for your imagination....

I agree with Nator, Some reflection of the orange sky on the right side of the man body, as it is on the right side of the shield. Nice picture author. Well done

Very nice image! (perhaps make a little darker directly under feet?)

Great job!

fantastic, bravo

lol ....Amazing

Good job.

Great composition and use of the source image, hard to be seen, but nicely used. Good luck

haha...good one

good fusion and colours, bravo

Congrats Bob, well crafted work!!

Congrats on 2nd

Congratulations Bob

Congrats, Bob.

Great creature, author!

Like the colors, and the way you transformed an ugly bug into a fluffy creature... I think it's cute!!

LOL, very funny =)

Really original author, and well done!!

Nice highlights on the beast. Great job, and I love the atmosphere .
Good luck.

Nice! Very Nice!

Very creative job author. I suggest to increase the darker areas on the lower-left side of the body, I like the lights on the beast back, but I think the darkest areas should be.... more darker! Just my opinion author. Good luck

You have a creative mind for sure. The source image is difficult to work with, that is why you will see only a few entries. You did a good job use of the source, changing it, into something mythical, a flying kind of winged creature....wow, that is imagination, I think you had several cups of coffee to come up with this wonderful idea. HR is sharper. Good luck!

lol, haven't seen this guy for some time now, funny image author, his eyes kinda make it work lol

I really hate this picture... the crossed eyed looking man source that is (I don't know why?)... but you brought it together with the theme and added humor in the multiple layers of saddling/mounting and I think it is brilliant work!

funny and nicely done

Love it!

Very nice wings. Good on you for coming up with something creative for this tough contest! Maybe smooth out the top of the wings - they're a bit rough in high res (isn't it nice to know that people do zoom in to look?!)

Edit: yes I see the correct version now - looks fabulous, and I look forward to the SBS

Congrats for 3rd Bob.
