Pretty scary critter! Like the way you created the background, shadows and placement are very realistic. I didn't know it was created until I looked at the SBS ... good work. Great idea!

Ah ok..fine then..good luck

Blending could be better as you lost the snake's own skin texture on top of its body

Great! There is a certain purity about it..... (Just like the author)

It seems he is carrying a hard and heavy burden in his life...

I just voted, and I was very surprised to see it was you! You're usually more confident in your work, it seems to be worried about what I say!! I didn't say it before, but I really like the image.

Actually, I do use my own sources. Not everytime. I never said that I did. All I'm saying is that if you can't find the source that you want, make it. I didn't say it to start a fight! it was just a suggestion, crazy!

I really didn't have a problem with the shadows on your source in the first place! Sheesh!

And I have 3 photoshop entries that feature me, my daughter and my fiance. The livingroom in my 3D entry is my livingroom. ALL of the textures are photographs of my actual furniture, the floor, the carpet and the walls of my livingroom. You can look at my reference photo of my living room and see that.

I can easily forgive the jean's shadows for this terrifically good idea. For me it screams some catchy poster slogan, good work author..

Yeah, the sun makes shaddows if your back is to it. Try at one or two facing west. Your subject doesn't have a head so you don't have to worry about squinting. Or use flood lights. My point is only that these contests are more satisfying (to me, anyway) when you use your own sources.

Lovely and clever ... this is a very fun image and I agree completely with Spaceranger ... the sense of whimsy and childlike simplicity is wonderful.

i like it but i'm agree with (blaine2nd )

sheesh hey author ;p

Make a source with no shaddows! Grab a camera, go outside in the sun and snap away. Sources don't have to come from the internet. Use your own. It's more satisfying that way, anway.

The shadows on the clothes aren't consistent with the light source.

This does have a nice child like quality. Good use of the source textures. Refreshing approach IMHO.

very nice i dea ,but you can't see the photo from the contest ,good luck

nice idea well done!

very nice chop....good luck

Ouch >.< it hurts just to look at it, great composition!

Simple, clean work, good result.. good luck

Interesting, work on the hair masking.. looks too blurry and too featherd, try using the smudge brush with a 2-3px soft 50% opacity and make some hair edges ... good luck!

Truly terrifying! Well done though!

Nice blend even if it is a tad disturbing -- shadow looks very good

Cool...hahahahhaha...best of luck

Ahhhh i so agree with the Geex about this...u made it well author,somehow i was sure that this was u,space is your region... I like this work,creatures are made well,and they are very interesting,rest of the image too...its very refreshing by IMHO to see something like this,not only flowers and death nature...well done author

wonderful work .........

Great Idea. Imho, I agree with hsbee, the man does look kinda bright and also, a little cut out. Is he supposed to be in the elevator shaft? If he was inside the shaft he should have some shadows on the sides of his body indicating the light coming in through the open door, or some other indication of a light source. Are there lights in the empty elevator shaft? Oh, I see now. You need a shadow to show the light spilling into the shaft of the elevator. I believe this will make it look less like the guy is just floating there.

Awesome! GL!

I'll have to share that with him

hahahahaha
It was really a awesome work!

Oh dear. They're friendly...right? Great job!

Great ... laughed out loud at this one ... everyone at work wondered if I was crazy. No, wait, they know that already!

Wonderfully fun image ... love the depth of field!

very funny... awesome job done..

I don't mean to be mean, but when you give a comment please be professional, all this "giggle snort..." "Hey Look every body.. http://www.lifesizecustomcutouts.com/...I guess you couldn't find an image of Justin Beiber (huge eyeroll).." "hehehe.. just giving as good as I get.. hehee.. fact of life darling..". Please tell me how this helps the artist. Have your snide remarks in private and out of the contests, its demeaning to the site and uncalled for.

Nice idea.. However, to me it looks like an empty unending space rather than an elevator tunnel.. Also, the man is too bright for his environment.. Good luck author

Love the concept. Good depth. Nicely done. In hi-res, you can see the edges of the "earth" composite with the moon (on both sides of the image - just to the left of the moon and the right of the earth) however. Aside from that, great work.

ahhhh thats what gop meant was it? Then I disagree......birds, fish, flowers & robots are seen every week and could be in the unoriginal category. Metalic tentacled creatures from outer space??? I dont think they crop up often enough to criticize or debate the originality personally.

Holy cow! Jawshoewhah, look at the similarities here! http://www.pxleyes.com/photography-picture/4be9e25d4b1c9/Huffin--at-the-pump.html

Good Job !!

Good job. GL author. War Of The Worlds again......

Creative use of source. The perfectly head-on perspectives of the saucers do not match (as currently positioned) the perspective [vanishing point] of the tunnel. While GK is correct that tentacled creatures show up pretty regularly in CBR entries on this site, I would also note that tentacles show up a lot in sci-fi films as well.

A very nice use of a very tough source, & I have no idea what Gop means either. Well done author!

CORNHOLIO! hahahahaha!!!!!! Awesome!

how did you do that?amazing

Congrats, Bob!!!!

Best 1 yet!

Nice work! only thing is, creature shape is regular in Pxleyes....can try a totally new creature. I am sure you can do it (just a suggestion, this also nice). Good luck.

SURVEILLANCE ROBO`S r back !!
