Well-drawn.

It would help if you could explain your idea a little because all this looks like is that you've smudged the mouth area. The emotions in the eyes and almost everything else is practically unchanged. Although she's an amazing looking woman, what is your reason for using this particular picture as a subject for "Abuse"??

You haven't included in your SBS how you textured your objects to achieve the painterly look of this render. The material on Charon's arm also seems to have a mapping issue.

Simple but strong. Maybe a little too simple? I like your technique of combining Photoshop and Bryce 3D, though Photoshop took care of most of your modelling Good luck.

Simple but a little too illustrative as opposed to realistic. GL.

Extremely fabulous, if that's a term! The textured lines converging to the door and contrast of pitch black to blown out is magnetic. Definitely faving this!

It's like a prisoner's point of view, trapped in a room and looking through the keyhole to his freedom Just curious as to where you took this and what, if any, technical considerations you made.

I think the butterflies and girl need to be better blended and adjusted to look as if they actually belong in this environment. Although you've used a reflection, it's not all gelling together very well. Maybe try playing around with the hue-sat levels of the girl and add some filters and highlights to her to make her look like she belongs in this pink, dreamy universe.

The dice perspective seems to be off, which is taking away from the realism. Similarly, it would be better if the 8 ball and star object also received the light and shadow influences from the fire.

Nice textures and especially like how you created the hand. I think you could improve this vastly if the light on the cards wasn't so flat. Try using a gradient or a lighting effect on the cards to remedy this. They also seem to be floating on the table, maybe because of the kind of shadow they have. But generally, the idea is good and its quite well-executed.

I think its trying to escape the pollution. The various elements need to be better blended, author. Try adding some shadows and adjustment layers to make make them look less cut and pastey.

Wow, an amazing look for 3D. Would love to see your SBS before I vote. Good luck.

Double congrats on a breathtaking image as well as coming first on your your very first entry here!

Oh my gosh, the shadows! Beautiful!

Wow! You even wrote the number by hand!

Is that 2,012 dollars or 20 dollars12? Coz I definitely want one of these on my night table! I like how you'd have to look into both eyes of the skull to know the time
Concept is really cool, your text though is kind of spoiling the image. Maybe try a different way to lay it out or a more "scary" looking font. In my opinion, your price info could also be less obvious. Good luck!

Interesting.

It tells some sort of sad story. I like the mood you've created.

You've put some creative thought into this but unfortunately, your final image is not showing this hard work. Throw some light on it.

Now THAT is amazing. I almost feel like I'm there, caught in that dusty old room with the old grandfather clock.

Not bad at all!

My goodness, that cap is definitely the star of this picture! LOL. What a LOT of work you put into it! Congratulations on your first digital drawing entry

That's definitely a caricature in my books, though maybe not as extreme. Excellent drawing skills and final image too. Well done

There's something captivating about this. Maybe it's the camera angle or the play of light on the leaves or the silver lining. I think it's how the stems of the plant seem to circle the sun. I love it!

There's so much to love in this picture! The sun rays (despite the flare) the tiny rays in the bottom right corner of the window, the transparency of the curtains, the vintage sepia feel, the frame within a frame and of course...the arched cat! A deceptively mundane but magical moment caught on camera. Congratulations!

Perfect subject for a blown-out look. The angle is also very good.

I do like how you have some detail with the bloom even at the back, but the blown out portion just feels very stark and sudden. I like your entry for all the shades or red we can see in it.

Definitely very dreamy...pulls you in.

Photos like these prove that blown out can also be beautiful.

Great SBS and very good image. Although I do agree that the textured water wall behind the figure is making it all too busy.

Your SBS shows how a simple technique, well-executed can create such an amazing result. Beautiful!

Another eerie use of the blue eye. She looks like a blue phantom who hypnotizes with her eyes. I personally don't like the multiple eyes all around. Maybe if they'd been the whole eyes instead of just the iris...But it tells a story anyway. Well done.

A very eerie and engaging image. Good work!

Smoke with a bleeding ink look with chimneys doing funky things! Way out! I like that you experimented, but I wonder what the thought was behind your concept? I do still love the colours nonetheless.

Nice ambiance.

Now that's how you want to look is you ever get lost in time.

Simple but impactful. Really good.

that is awesome, both idea and execution

It is beautiful but I wish I could see more detail in your main subject. Maybe if you selectively increase the contrast and saturation in some areas, it won't feel as washed-out. The blending of her dress against the background could be improved as well.

Congratulations on coming 3rd!

Congratulations on 2nd place!

Clever, well done!

But what about the yellow door?

Love it! The contrast between the the original surreal source and your stylized use of it is wonderful.

Interesting, though with the title, "Let me See", I think it would've been cooler if the hands were pulling the top eye-lid as well for a more straining to look effect.

Well-modelled with good texturing and lighting. Conceptually, I love the idea of self-sustaining, garbage-eating bacteria but feel the design of your bin is too basic for that. It looks likes the omnivorous bacteria inside the bin might escape from the place where you throw the trash and spread all over the world!

Idea is good and so is the modelling. I think you could have paid a little more attention to the lighting and texturing which feels somewhat flat and is bringing it down a little. I love how in the shadow it looks like a little anthro-insect creature.

Wouldn't mind seeing that on my street, or even in my house. There's something cute and pet-like about it. I like how it looks recycled out of junk. Although it does look a little bumbling, like it would knock things over with its flailing long arms LOL.

Somewhat reminiscent of Rosie in "The Jetsons"! I wouldn't want to bump into it at night, the shot of it in low-light is little spooky!! How does it "run" by the way? And what do it's arms do?

I like how you've designed a regular-looking dustbin going around on heavy duty tank tracks How does it operate? Does it follow the garbage or do you have to follow it around with your garbage? Texturing and lighting is good!
