Nice idea. I would only suggest working on the eyes allitle bit more.

I just got some free time to check out the new contests....and my first thought was the same idea you had. Good job.

You did a great job. I did see that you cut out part of her neck. If you zoom in on the neck you can see the collar bone line is missing from your final image.

wow, is not enough to say... very detailed like you said in the high res.

great job. alot of nice touches when looking at the high res...

nicely done.

nice idea of making it look like ice

nice idea

very good job, nice SBS as well.

I like the depth in the picture and how you have a feeling of decay like marina08 stated.

Very good, i like the motion in the water and the birds you did

I just have to say WOW... this is great. You used a drawing tablet right? or a mouse? I hope it was with a tablet...a mouse would make me vote higher....

Nice idea. I agree with others with the thought of trying to use warp, overlay, or other techniques to make it seem more natural.

I like the idea, maybe add a little different shades of yellow/red to the candles.

Very nicely done. I showed this to my niece whom is 2yrs old, and she stated "look bert and ernie, but is that?" I told her thats their teacher....

Nice idea, but I also agree that the image of the person could be lightened a bit to blend with the dollar.

the curve looks better.

nice idea, but looks a little flat on your arm. I have multiple tattoo's on my arm and back and going from a flat image to your skin there is that gentle curve to your body that can be seen.
