my favorite one so far.. i love it when my avatar says removed by author!

keeeeeeeeewl!

cloning the trees would have produced a better result.

here we go with the dress fractals. lol

yay!!! this is so good! do you mind posting a SBS on how you got the paint effect on her face?

maybe im a retard, but i dont see the source image... please post SBS (step by step) entry so we can see how you made this

awww, i thought that was you. how sweet. herro arien... it looks like a giant mechanical big boo from super mario bros. XD

take off, or reduce the outer glow on the mountain.. will make it look more realistic, and if your going to put a blur on any of the bats, put it on all of them. it actually doesnt look bad with a minor blur. maybe make a copy of a flattened layer (select the top layer and press command+option+shit+E, this will duplicate all your layers and flatten them into one) after that, do a bit of a diffuse glow (if that helps with the brightness) or add a medium gaussian blur, and set the blending mode to overlay, and bring down the opacity to around 20. this'll help give it a smooth, yet sharp effect.

this would look much better if you used a water splash (like surface and underwater) used that to separate the mountains with a coral shot underwater (real simple, desaturate the splash layer and set to screen... it eleminates all the black, you dont want black to show with water effects.) hope that helps. mask out the mountains and the coral shot so that they meet at the line where the splash is. real simple.

omg, wouldnt it be funny if this was the only image submitted for the ENTIRE contest. hahahahaha!!! you would get 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place with ONE image. XD

would help if you added a cooling photo filter to that

source link for lightning???

edit: if those sources say to notify them if you use their brushes, you need to link back to them... thats an awful lot of brushes your using. also, if you didnt use any outside sources, and your project has this much detail, you need to post a SBS in here to show us how you did it.

i dont see a face, more like an abstract dragonfly or something. its deffinatly interesting.

oooh, so thats what she looks like.. ^^ i asked her if she was over 18! hahaha... anyway, she was super nice to talk to. good caricature you got goin on here...

my comment is the one above.. apparently i got logged out due to inactivity and my name isnt coming up. but that was me.

NICE! i hope to see this in the top 3 some of your bubbles arent circular, they are ovally....

WOW this is really impressive work! congrats!

nice! i think this could work better if perhaps you get a picture of you holding it, so that you can see through the bulb, and see you (the transparency effects could prove quite impressive rather than just a white background...) have you hold it close to the 'camera' and blur out the background of you, as if it were a perspective shot. just an idea, but i believe it could make this already great image even better.

wow, i take it the ground is moving, and not the car.... i could be wrong, and if i am, then the rims should be moving as well... besides, the motion blur is WAY to hard on the background... soften it up or redo it. the chrome on the car looks great though! you got that part right atleast.

thats creepy... excellent blending..
