Like this v much

I like this !!!

So much depression. Uh, I don't think the other commenters are considering the condition of the earth in this photo. If the Earth is exploding, it could very well get distorted. But if the cloudy background is supposed to be smoke from the explosion, then you should make it look like it's coming from the explosion. The earth is casting a shadow against a wall of clouds?

simple but very well done.

you should match the color of the bird's shadow with the one of the bulb.

very cute, it makes me smile

i kinda like the image...its just kinda simple...i mean the globe is an fire...and its not the right shape(ponti said it) and the background makes no since...

:o he copyd my title xD but still not bad and it wud be better if u made a space background instead of clouds

the shape of the globe is a little strange, try making the image round or eliptical, i'd also like to see this a little brighter. Good luck!

i just love the image and i think old hummers are one of the coolest birds out there! cool shading too!

So cute.

very cute!

please release the bird,ehehehehe, good luck

the shadow looks a bit like a duck :-P Nice image though, good luck!

nice work great job editing out the filament!

very nice

metal or not this looks good to me. Nice work good depth

good luck author

:o

not bad.....nice thought.....

hehehe you will sell it for windows - so many time i feel my windows do something like this - warp, cut and rotate... cheers!

this should be metal?????? sorry but u far from that, u have to work with curves than hue saturation it will stay the metal that u want for shore good luck.

I think this is so strange, the source image has really not been used very much at all, but that's what i like about it, the way you used it is so subtle that it is fantastic, it makes me think really hard of where i should look, which means your image has more of an impact than some other entries that really shopuldn;t be looked at again, and for that reason, i'm gonna give your entry very high marks. Good job!

nice

there is not much of the source image...

wheres the source

OK................!

the two circles are the source??? bummer!!!

oooh, nice! reminds me of my separated series! (check out my photoshop gallery on my profile) nice! i should post a tutorial on how to do this (the right way). i think you may find it very useful.

but yes, VERY POOR use of the source image... although this is a good image, you wont get high votes unless the source is the main focus of the image. the idea is to photoshop the image supplied, not have it part of your photoshopped project (if that makes sense)

hehe. .reminds me of the LAMP in the Christmas Story.. very nice humor element.. good luck on this author.. I really like it (though the surreal is always awesome.. so much free thought involved)

Very poor use of source. Author, you have done much better...

Ummm...where did you use the source image?

yellow gets out!

that owl seems not very friendly...

looks like hard work, and the roof is very convincing, but i just don;t believe that it's metal. Try adding a reflection, or making it shinier.. there are lots of tutorials on how to create chrome objects, try something like that, but a little toned down. Other than that, it looks like you put a lot of effort into this, so good luck!

without a step by step it's a bit difficult to guide you.. I can see you burned and dodged.. and I'm pretty sure you texture placement as well.. the only thing I could suggest is to cut reflection strikes with white paint and try to place them where a mirror/metal flash would be and then play with the opacity (the white flash is that shiny thing on a sphere or an eyeball (Like the window shaped thingy on the eyes of the PXL Logo.. it give Objects a shine surface depth.. (You can gradient them as well.. experiment... (I'm okay at them but I AM not an authority by any means.. I'm sure others will have better Ideas.. I'm just voicing what I would do at your request.... good LUCK AUTHOR.. very good work)(sorry, I was so much better at this with oil/acrylic paints LOL, having a back light constantly always screws me up, It's like trying to play piano under water)

Well done Author!

nice, only thing merging should be gradual

nice try., but stil may be u could use some overlay of the cloth over the Splatter, to match it with the dress ,and this one would turn out to b a nice piece of art.,

pretty cool

Nice effect, great job author.

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

agree; u could use the pattern of the dress for the splash

Try to do a color match...

good

good work

way too dark

nice and cool

cute.. reminds me of stewart little... the movie

Not enough source... But you already knew that I guess. Its a nice effect anyways.
