Agree with nasirkhan

@puppetized: author mentioned that in the description (I don't know that this is the original description or the changed one). Honestly, by comparison, the Giallo's entry is much better (because you said that you were inspired by Giallo's entry, I consider it as your reference, please don't take me wrong, I don't know Giallo, I just want to see how you came with from this reference). Author, with your skill you can bring more effort into this work, it's good but more editing might be much more impressive (some parts on the body can be more defined, especially the face, this kind of improvements is within your reach). Good luck to you

Simply wonderful and resulted from a hard, time consuming work, I think. The only thing I'm wondering is the perspective of the arm, it looks unnatural. The length of the arm should be longer and the hand should be smaller. Just my opinion in case you want to make the human look, otherwise it's very very good.

Great things are the depth of the scenery, the dynamics, and of course, great imagination. I suggest to darken the wing a bit, especially the joining part. Also trim the wing more carefully, so the Hi-Res will be wonderful. Good luck!

I know that's you ). Yes, this is a great photo

Excellent idea! I suggest to embed to "root" to the land, so they will look more connective, and also the right side of the land needs to be trimmed more carefully, it's still like the paper cut. Good luck!

Nicely excecuted, especially the eyes are noticeable and the skin tone is suitable with the winter. But, should the wind be a bit more visible? I feel the beauty, the coldness and just a mild breeze, which should be more focused. Moreover, seems like you use "complex brush" to make the ice flakes (as defined by the guideline for digital painting contest, and not allowed to be used), maybe it depends on the mod, but you should notice. Good luck, author

the reflection in the mirror needs to be flipped, too

Most of people did this kind of work always has the problem with the shadow of the rotated part and you're not the exception. If you can solve that problem, I can vote you very high . In details, that are the shadows on the cheek, the nose, and the eyelash, they should disappear and the shadows on the reverse sides should appear. Can you do that? PS: your skin blending is good. Good luck, author

Because you didn't show the PTS steps, so I just guess this is the part you used PTS, right? Beside that, I agree with Drivenslush that you could replaced the human with the real image (this one looks bad to me). Through other entries of yours, I know that your PTS skill is also very good, you can do a good job even with the pure PTS manipulations and get higher votes from people like me and gamemastertips. Anyway, wish you a good luck with this contest.

This is the Photoshop contest and we can use the 3D program to support our work, not the 3D contest supported by Photoshop. I agree with gamemastertips. If you don't provide enough your technique, people can misunderstand you use only PTS and this is UNFAIR (for example, picking an 3D image is much easier than creating the 3D from the 2D image). However, to gamemastertips, I think this is not the good place for discussing too much, you can do that in the forum. Focusing on this work and as far as the PTS factor is concerned, you might did a good job turning the left UFO into the damaged one.

You need at least one intermediate step between your source and your final result, I can't see what you did with your source. Comparing the 2 images, I'm sure that they are not the same, it's like you use other photo, not the source you provided and I'm sure that you took one more photo of the room reflection in the mirror, so you don't have to re-create image of the room where the man's reflection stood. Sorry to say that, but if you did that, it's like cheating to me because it's much easier to you, while some people can think you re-created the room perfectly only based on the source...

I guess that's you, and ... I'm right . It looks quite similar to one of your previous entries . Good luck

How about Nator and wazowski, their avatars can be easily transformed into ? so funny lol

Congratulations

Erika, I like this cat

Congratulations, Ben, keep on moving

One more "bombing" from me

Congratulations!

You dominated this contest

Congratulations, absolutely deserved!

Congratulations

My opinion is simple that this kind of glasses is quite popular but I didn't mention that you take the idea from anyone else. I'm sorry if it's offensive to you. Good luck

I hardly saw the heart shape. Your idea is unique, but you need to make it clearer. Good luck

We don't need photoshop for this stuff. Sorry, but it's not a clever idea.

Not very original http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_TYnbO0hQZHM/Sct4-qNrkqI/AAAAAAAABqI/p-08_4Yr_V4/s400/Dog+sunglasses+-+we+heart+it.jpg. However, I still vote high because of the nice execution

You're good in branch trimming . I suggest to consider some big branches which are extruding out, you can make them smaller because they looks like the sudden cut. GL!

The idea is good, I really like it, but execution needs some improvements. Looks like you're hiding some mistakes on the layer of the father by blurring. You can say it because of the DOF, it's alright, but I can't imagine the father is not in the same plane with the child (because the his shadow is as sharp as the shadow of his kid). Moreover, the right hand of the father needs to be recovered, looks like he loses fingers. Just my opinion, don't take it offensive. Good luck, author

Next time you can choose the option of publish my entry later... Once you finish uploading your SBS, you can publish without worrying

Not original, however.

It reminds me the Beowulf movie, Grendel's Mother by Angelina Jolie. Now it's very difficult to predict the top entries

Really like how you combined the colors and you might drew with an amazing speed, I guess. @jaw: I always think this author is a nice painter, this has been expressed in other works.

Do you think that we can see the top of this bird in the reflection?

Not surprise about the author. You're here to win

I think you drew the foxes lol. Whatsoever, it's the nice and funny piece. GL, author!

Maybe you forgot to crop properly :p. It's perfectly on theme and the armor is awesome ^^

I have some suggestions. The model wears the black globe with the image of the skeleton, so in the Hi Res this globe is noticeable; the black hole on the wall is not black enough, we can see the non-cleared brick, also the hole looks not natural; the region behind the skull, on the cloak should be much darker. If you fix them, I'll give the high vote

The fur on top of his head needs more work, it looks sharp. Impressive!

I think the roof needs to be blurred a bit, it's quite sharp. Aside from that, this is one of my favorites in this contest. You did it really well. Good luck!

Not complicate but charmful to me. High marks from me. Good luck author
PS: the first time I can't figure out that it's you

Agree with pingenvy. Also, I wish that the sky is higher, so we can feel the depth of this image better. This look like a kind of HDR photo. GL!

My idea sanctuary . Good job! GL, author

Agree with PixelWhisperer, the boat and the sea need to be realistic or the sky should be turned to the painting-like one.
