Detail is great!

Cute stuff!

Brings back memories...good ones too! Nice job author!

There's a real appealing simplicity about this. Great stuff, author!

The synopsis of this is great! Nice storytelling thru excellent work. Great job...love the foreground figure in front of the light source. Brilliant.

I like the surreal nature of this! Nice job, author!

Love the creativity and your ability to create birds from something incredibly liquified. I always have a tough time controlling the shape to do what I want when I liquify like this. Great job, author!

Intricate and interesting. i like when the source is also used to create a background, which you did. Nice SBS too!

Everyone should see this in high resolution to appreciate it. It's great, author!

The clearest tomato juice known to man! Nice job, author...I particularly like the blue background you made!

The finished product here isn't unusual looking. This is actually a realistic finish. Nice work nonetheless.

EDIT: No need to reiterate the guidelines...and no need for defensiveness author. You did a fine job...I merely commented that the end result doesn't look like a hideous or outrageous combination.

I understand, author! One big from me!!

Really nice work, author! I like how you altered the face source as well. Well done comp!

Somewhat hideous and wonderful at the same time...?!?! Nice work author!

Underrated work! Good job author. I really like this.

This actually made me smile. Nice job, author!

This is sweet stuff!

This is funny and very well done. I like the newspaper approach.

Really love this.

Very, very nice!!! Yep!

Love Mondriaan...well done, author! Agree with above. Textures and brush strokes really help make Mondriaan so stately and detailed. If you add that to this great foundation you'll really improve this!!

EDIT: I'm likin' the textured one!

Lovin' this!! Great work!

Well done, author! Hideous indeed! The best compliment to get in this contest!!

This made me cringe...it's perfect!

Great use of source. It's visible and plausible. Love the frog too.

This is excellent...no question about it. Refreshing and fun to see work like this. Keep it up author...you're helping to raise the bar of creativity on this site.

High vote for render and look...really great! It's not exactly 'crazy' like the contest suggests...but nonetheless...very good!

Rather funny...and good idea driving home the message that it's a construction workers helmet. Nice job!

This is wonderful...I think I would have enjoyed perhaps a more conventional sky coloring...but this is definitely creative!

Just plain brilliant! Love this!!

I also noticed that 'dad' isn't anywhere to be found. Maybe he's at work...hopefully. Or maybe...she's just doing the unthinkable for the 50s...."a single mom". Whoa!

Very nice result. Especially liking the background. Would be nice if you shared how you created it in your SBS.

This reminds me of a drawing that might have been created in the late 50's...the way they thought things would be in ...say...2011. Nice job!

Her face and mouth made me laugh. Silliness and fun!

This is really scary! Well done too. If you flip the ring it'll match the strong highlight lighting of the face better. Nice work!

Whoa! This is great...but almost looks eerily like it could be from a medical journal.

Whoa! A real beaut!

This made me smile and laugh. The one on the right has X's in the eyes...which sometimes depicts the dead in illustrations...the fact that it's not dead and laughing is great!

Wonderful author!

This is sweet and funny! Love the goggles.

With the amount of green happening 'outside'...I would think there would be more traces of that color showing thru the blue window...but the way you have it is cool...I wouldn't change it. It's more dramatic this way...

I like this image. Is the mosaic intentional around the edges? It's a soothing image and your design in the eye along with the colorizing is appealing.

The snow looks illustrated mixed in with real flowers. Normally I'm not crazy about that combo...but it really works here and I like this image very much. Nice job, author!

Cool mood and color. Nice work!

Really well done. Love the feel of this!

When babies cry like that....their whole world is falling apart in their little, undeveloped brains...this image is more of a statement than most may realize. I can't remember how many times I've felt like this poor baby in the midst of city strife.

Beautiful imagery and synopsis. The mood is heartbreaking! Nice job, author!

This is beautiful. Vignette use is awesome and love the color too. Great job, author!

I like that you told a story in the image. Nice job!

Wonder if the banana closes it's eyes when all zipped up or if the eyes stay open. Nice job!

I like this! Nice decision to use egg for head. Perhaps soften the edges of the cracks a bit...since the resolution isn't the highest. Is there any way to get a better res version of this image? It's well done...it's just a shame the original image wasn't higher quality.
