Great idea, and put together well! Your shadowing is a little too intense though. Otherwise, it's quite believable.

This is cute, and nicely detailed! Love the 'bluing' effect. Really like the humor factor.. *Wondering how it got through the small opening*

Great idea, great composition and ok, you find a very nice way to save the foot of ballet dancers! Also, you make a anatomy mix up with good taste. GL

Great image it makes you want to look closer at it kinda pulls ya in. Shadows are all over the place. The fish in the tub and the bird at the right seem to have light from the viewpoint, yet the rice crispy square looking thing in the middle has it from the top back right. then the vulture at the top left has it coming from the right to the left and up. Shadows on a image should be done last and all from the same point.

I like the picutre really much, but you could improve the reflection of the horse person, the perspective seems a little weird and the outlines of the star wars looking r2d2 figure could be a little bit better made

Hello author. The reflection is off a bit. It actually is different than the original tomato all together. I will try to help you out to the best of my abilities. I would duplicate your tomato and all the elements that make up the tomato (such as the mouth glares, etc...) then I would merge all the duplicated layers together. After this flip the merged layer and move it straight down to the base of the original tomato. Reduce the opacity to about 50% and then cover with a reveal all mask. Now use a black to white gradient on the mask to reveal the tomato so that it gradually fades to nothing at the bottom. I hope this helps. There is probably a better way to explain this. Good luck author.

EDIT: Sorry author i didn't even look at the source picture before I commented. The reflection is fine. I think something with the mouth is off a bit though. I cant quite put my finger on it. I think the top lip in the reflection is too dark. if you look at the lips on the "original tomato" the upper lip is not even there. if you look at the reflection the upper lip is very dark. Otherwise, Good work and good luck.

I like the overall 'story' feeling to this - like straight out the history books Yay about that middle line too.

Yeah I agree about the blue, a 1 - 2px feathered selection usually works best, and you can create an action so you don't have to keep going into the settings!

I think i will keep some distance when i encounter a bird that big.. The high res shows a small blue line around the bird. It would be nice if you could remove that (may be by giving a blur to the mask).

Most realistic entry so far, I like this one, I'm only waiting for someone to get rid of that middle line where the plastic was molded together. Think you might be able to do that with a clone tool would be my recommendation . If not this is still a great pic.
