Absolutely odd.....but.....truly amazing...! What should I start with???? I love the eggy head idea, great choice of sources: the hat couldn't fit better and the colors of the scarf really match the overall tones...., I also like it cause it's neat and clean....and....oh well....fantastic...! My only quick suggestion would be an increase in the backround contrast....maybe a bit more darkness to it, maybe some clouds, mist, anything to help the depth of field! I am usually the adept of highly defined brightness and contrast! So, it might just be me....! Great image anyways! Best of luck!

Just a bit too simple for my taste! And apart from the violet curved lines which remind me of the mask in contest.....there's not too much source used! Sorry! Best of luck!

This is such a poetic entry.....! It's like I can almost hear the lyrics of a poem and let myself flow into a sea of nolstalgia....! Oh.....have I also mentioned how much I love the colors???!!!!!!! Oh....well.....I love it all.....! Best of luck!

I haven't seen this one the first time....but....it is an awesome job indeed! It can very well work as a game or cartoon concept! I only wish you were more explicit in the SBS, so that we could all learn how to get to do such a great image! I would personally be interested in an official tutorial, as I would like to learn how to give some of my images such a great glow and such perfect shadows and highlights! Best of luck!

I get a nice feeling from this one, but I would have loved to see a higher resolution, as for the time being the bottom part of the dress just looks a bit too blurry to me! And some brightness and contrast adjustment layer would have given the image a great plus! Best of luck!

It is such ashame that it's too dark and even more ashame that you haven't had time to modify it! I have the feeling that this is actually very good, if only I could see more of it...! Best of luck!

I have to admit I would have never ever thought about this.....but you pulled it out very well....! Nice feel, nice colors....fantastic vision...! Best of luck!

Loooooooool! Definitely high marks on the humour! And I also love the way you made the sister match the little doll's proportions! And his new face expression is.....priceless! Best of luck!

As messy as it might look.....it does work for the whole feeling of it...! It's strangely good....and the cartoonish hair is just adorable! I personally love it and hope to see this high in rank! You've definitely got my vote! Best of luck!

Very good technique indeed and spot on with finding a very good usage of the little doll in contest! Best of luck!

Don't get me wrong...! I love the way it looks....I think it's a very good composition! But I'll have to agree with the rest about minimal usage of source! Best of luck!

Excellent entry! Love the colors...and the bubble (sorry...I don't know the term for that...lol) around his face is very well created...! I really hope I'll see this one in the top three! Best of luck!

Awesome technique....clever manipulation! Best of luck!

Very good usage of source! Nice colors on the planet itself! Maybe the elements around are a touch too distorted, but the shadowing compensates! Best of luck!

Somehow...I had the feeling it was you! Why not more comments???? It sure deserves more....it's a great composition! Best of luck, dear friend!

It's a very good idea! I liked it a lot the first time I saw it used by Lodd in one of the contests....and I still like the way you've used it as well! Just a small hint, maybe you should have used bit more from the image in contest and darkened the big rock just a touch to bring more contrast to the whole image....! But....overall....great result! Best of luck!

Usually, I am not into these kind of images....but I have to admit you did a very good job with it! The 3D feeling looks amazing and the blurring of some elements in the backround has created a really awesome zoom effect! Thumbs up from me! Best of luck!

So adorable....it just makes me want to hug him....or her....! Ver creative use of source...! Best of luck!

I looooooooooove the feel of this one...! Very imaginative and spot on with the usage of the image in contest...! Best of luck!

Super high marks...as usual....my dear friend! A delightful combination of colors, imagination and unique technique! Best of luck!

Great choice of sources...! Excellent reflexions...! I love it! Best of luck!

Very cute....love the warm tones...and good choice with the grey backround, it helps the little one stand out! Best of luck!

Very colorful....I love the tones and you've got an excellent eye for color combinations! And you've got quite an imagination to come up with something like that! Best of luck!

I understand the controversy around this creation.....but.....since moderators haven't removed it....well.....we need to vote! And despite all that.....it is truely a very good image, which proves excellent imagination, a very good eye for colors and, of course, a magnificent technique...! Best of luck!

Very very nice...! Top score from me!

Congratulations! Excellent creation!

Congratulations! Very good choice of composition!

Congratulations! Excellent entry! Hats off....!

Hey....! What can I say....! Never cease to amaze us, you little "Picasso poet" ! Congratulations....you totally rule the realm of colors!

Perfect is just not enough to describe this creation! Congratulation dear friend! Well deserved for a great talent, tremendous imagination and wonderful unique style!

Great entry! It only proved my words were right and it really is a great composition! Well deserved! Congratulations!

Congratulations! Well deserved! And a great lesson for all of us for thinking outside the box...!

Congrats! I really liked the feel behind this creation!

Congrats for second place! A very interesting image!

Congrats! A very good image and wonderful composition!

A fully deserved first place for a very good friend! Congratulations and thank you for enchanting our hearts!

Not bad....! Strange effect! Best of luck!

Really creepy...! Love it...in a strange way....! There is still some slight hollow around some of the finger-toes.....! Maybe fix that by defringing or bluring edges....and it's perfect! Best of luck!

Yes...definitely great execution and good use of the difficult source! Excellent blending as well....! Best of luck!

Spooky...! High resolution is just great....great technique! Best of luck!

Excellent technique...! Very good entry! Love it! Best of luck!

So many details....very meticulous job...and a very wild imagination! Super!

Excellent concept and job! I'm speachless!

Lol....a very daring product! I wonder, if I ate those would that make me a cannibal? Good concept! Maybe add some shadow to the box! Best of luck!

This is not bad...and very original to come up with a cat from a.....flamingo....lol! But I think it would look even better if you added some shadows..! I would recommend using a new layer with a soft brush of different tones of grey, and then change blending mode to overlay or hard light, rather than use the burn tool...as your base color is brown and it might alter it into too much redness! Hope I helped! best of luck!

The story behind this creation is unbelievable....it makes you stop the rushed living for a split seond and just think about what is it gonna be after we finish our buissness with this world...! Great concept and magnificent realization! I would have liked the girls to look a little bit more cartoonish as well just to better match the whole drawing style....but that's just me...! On the other hand, maybe the combination of live images of people with the drawn death is not so bad after all as it enforces the fact that we're talking two totally different world here...! Oh well....best of luck!

I remember this one...! I still believe it's sooooooooo cute and looks soooooo real that it makes me want to touch it and hold it tight! Best of luck!

Greeeeeeeeeat image! And definitely high marks for the fairies! In a world where we're surrounded by way too much ugliness and unecessary wars, famine and mean people....what would we do without dreaming....and fairytales....and imagination...! So....all thumbs up for anybody who can create such an image that can help us dream and get out of the cruel reality! Best of luck!

Excellent job indeed! I wish I had this much imagination....! But some small details: a high resolution would be wonderful and a more detailed SBS would be helpful for the ones who could learn something from it! Like me....lol! This is really awesome for a game concept! Best of luck!

I have one word for this: EXCELLENT! Actually I have more...., like: amazing lightning, great composition, beautiful colors and tones, spot on title...., grrrrrrrrrrreat theme......! Very very nice! Best of luck!
