Nice work, but the angel has no shadow...she looks painted on the floor.

Wow! Very nice! The only thing....the color of her wings. They are a bit distracting. I think a more transluscent effect woudl have been better; maybe more like the glow of the clouds. But that's just me! Excellent work, though!

Well done, the horizon line looks too sharp (the one separating the ground from the sky).

this is really nice great colors

Wow, very nice mood. Good luck!

The varying colors of the dice look very appealing in contrast with the stark orange feeling of the entire shot. NIce job, author!

I really like the overall look of this author! The color and idea make for a really nice composition. What bjaockx might be referring to is the masking of the main chess piece. The upper left area side is a hard edge, but the rest of it seems really, really soft. If you perhaps make the soft edges a bit less soft and slightly soften the area mentioned...it might help. You've done well with this and would love to see those changes which undoubtedly would improve it...especially when viewed high res. GL author!

EDIT: Looks

like the idea, and the feel of the image. as for execution, it leaves something to be desired. Many many masking and blending issues throughout. Also, one quick fix would be to blur the tree you added to the background. it should be slightly less in focus than the tree that is behind your castle. Good luck!

great job, i like it

that is cool i like this i really do

Congrats, well done

It always bums me out when there isn't a SBS. It's a very nice image though. The colors and the setting are lovely.

So where's the rest of the net on the ground?

Not a bad image, but what's that stuff she's lying on?

very awesome author, great idea. maybe burn her under side to give her more stability, she's kind of out there.. but that could just be me.. it's still very pretty good LUCK and as always IMHO

I think the cutout of the woman could be done a lot better compared to the tree and the bird. especially her hair.

I just wish you had not edit the first one because that looked so nice, just was not fit for this contest.

You should intensify the shadows plus work a little more on her hair. Great idea and concept overall.

Nice image. My only nitpick would be to blur the edges of the woman a bit so she doesn't look so cut out. Good work author and good luck!

very Very VERY PRETTY! good luck author

Congratulations!

Interesting OOB entry...good luck author

Congratulations!

whhhoow.... i want to sit there too!
nice picture..

goodluck

.

I'd give the swing seats some thickness, otherwise it's a nice job.

HEY.. it's Luke Skywalker under Cloud City! (what the image reminded of) good luck author, and good job

beautiful surreal

Try to work a little bit on the air balloon specially on the left...Why not making it more blurry ! Good luck author
I wait for the vote...........

this lil devil looks more scared then anything lol :P

yes great improvement author except the thumb the fork now goes behind her thumb instead of her holding it. the pinky is right done now, just use a hard brush to erase some of the thumb and use burn to create a small darker edge where the fork comes out through the bend of her thumb. (hope that made sense) and yes the fire behind her is a personal thing and does not change the quality of your work, just a matter of different taste i think perhaps if u have the time you could let a tail come from behind her a little bit.

the hair looks really bad in high ress, the hand thats holding the fork is partly erased the fork goes straight thru her thumb and pinky lol, her cutout seems a bit shaky, the colors are okay, I would have added fire behind her though. I think you had a really great idea, the execution just needs to be a little better. holding off my vote for now.

Nice work.

reminds me of anime good luck!

Good mood, but the shadow doesn't match the light source.

you can always suggest a contest where it is alowed I think hes still a lil funny creature

I take that back sorry .... he's not as cute anymore LOL ... it's too bad our orig were pulled I'm still bumming about mine.

Take him home .... he is so cute!

EEEEKKKK..hit him with a shoe!!! very fun entry!!!

Sailing so close to the edge of the world. I really like the atmosphere of this one and I'm adding it to my favs.

Very good blending, but sadly, the water does not look realistic, as it is too "smooth" in front of the falls. Flowing water does just that. It does not simply "fall off" along the edge, it flows to the edge.

The lighting of the boat also needs some work, as the sails do not show the light source of the moon behind them to correspond with the strong shadow. They need to have more back lighting, and the shadow of the masts behind the sails needs to be seen.

Good idea!

Interesting...dunno why the tracks would disappear before reaching the edge of the waterfall, though.

just a tad misogynistic, hehehe.. great job

best work!!!

cool

Amazing!

Beautiful work!!

Foreground too dark, figure needs a shadow.

verry pretty
