Great concept. I do agree with Lolu though ...You can add very nice and easily editable textures by:

Add a 50 percent gray layer with the blend mode set on Soft Light (Overlay and Hard light work too ... just stronger); apply filters (you can combine them until you get a look that you like - e.g. stain glass, monochromatic noise ...you can do this in more than 1 layer). You can warp them or transform them; you can paint some out or back in (using gray); you can blur or sharpen.

Once you think you like what you have created. Voila! You now have a texture that you can work on, change opacity, lighten (use lighter grays to white), darken (use darker grays to black) and all without harming the main image.

Trick: the neutral gray layer is also a great way to play with the lighting almost like dodge and burn but non-destructive ... use white for highlights, black to darken and/or intensify and 50 percent gray to bring back to neutral (no change).

Love him ... he looks like a mechanical John Travolta (Saturday Night Fever in the kitchen). Really like the way you have coloured the kitchen ...Great!

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

Klaatu barada nikto ...maybe that will keep him in line ...save the earth and all that ...if you know what I mean. All joking aside ...he is a stunning!

Like the image ... I think the symmetry adds to the surreal quality ... maybe it is just me. I like the whole effect. Great detail and well put together. Definitely feels like the Emerald City in Space Lovely! :clap:

Mean old skeleton ...stealing the poor guys lunch! Very clever and well thought out. Love the expression he has!

Incredible detail and unique work ... I agree about the shading but somehow without it there is a surreal element to the image ... bravo!

Absolutely incredible! Stunning work ... I haven't enough kind words to say ...truly beautiful!

Clever and beautifully conceived image!

What a wonderful image ... makes me want to fly away to a very happy place!

A lot of work on this one ... wonderful idea!

Scary, strange and lovely all in one image ... great! Well done Author!

ROFL! Great ... what a wonderfully fun image!

Well put together ... great concept and beautiful image!

Lovely work ... great depth, blending, composition and attention to detail! Bravo!

The bird is a nice touch!

Cute! Nice, simple and clean!

LMAO! The birds are a great touch!

Great job ... great perspective ... I would say that in the high res you can see where you have removed the one plank, would be an easy fix

Wonderful concept.

Lovely work! The lighting is elegant (for lack of a better word) and the whole image has an almost other worldly feel.

I agree with woodztockr ... when I saw it I immediately thought of MJ ... but a very weird MJ ... and that is scary!

Gets point for originality from me!

It is stunning ... beautifully conceived and executed!

Great work ... love the way you put it all together ... one would never know it came from all those different sources!

Very good ...

Oh Johnny!

That silly Michelangelo always clowning around! Wonderful idea!

This is truly a lovely piece!!! Bravo!

Stunning!

Congratulations ... it is a stunning image!

Congratulations ... she is truly wonderful!

Congrats! Well deserved, stunning work!

Very clever ... hah! ha!

Beautiful image ...lighting, colouring, composition and idea are all wonderful! Good luck!

Jewels among jewels ... a kaleidoscope of colour!

Love the flow of this one ... good work!

He looks a little corked to me ... sorry ... bad pun. Love the expression which is amazing since there isn't much face to work with ... you brought it out perfectly.

Made me chuckle ... and a little hungry.

I got it but it is very subtle ... I do think you are headed in the right direction though ... loved the ad

Love the cheese plate "touch" just tops off the whole image! Great attention to detail.

I have a couple of cats who act this way ... like they own the recliner ... maybe something is happening when there is no one around! I can certainly see them enjoying it like this guy is!

Great ...

Very funny! Would love to see SBS too and hi res ... oh well, it is still great!

This one really sparks the imagination ... sorry could not resist ... great concept.

Gotta love them shoe!

Like the way you used his face on the suitcase ... and the way he is lifting up his own feet ... very cool!

LOL ... great imagery!

Love the surreal quality ... this really brings out the depth of the original image beautifully!

This is a great surreal image!

I wondered if that is what you were going for ...it does create an interesting look ... window looks great
