Nice work...put an additional shadow slightly darker closer to the body and offset a bit and this will really rock!

EDIT: Yeah baby!!!

I like the overall feel of this. Intricate detail abound. Not sure if I like the canvas texture...it isn't too distracting...but I think I'd like this more without it...imo.

Increase reflection under her a bit and maybe add a slight shadow and this will be...!!! It already rocks!

Take a look around...what he's talking about is another entirely different contest that uses an alpaca animal as it's source. Hope that helps.

Cool perspective created here...ditto 'yahidithmonnalisa'...(whew!)

I like the use of sources here. Nice perspective...very pleasing.

This made me laugh. I like the reflections too...but the reflection has more detail showing in its tailfin than the actual fish. What happened to the top of the tailfin?

EDIT: Understood author! Makes sense...really funny image!

Nice job! Might want to soften some of your edges of the geisha and watch the outlining around the shoulder, arm and hand. Great composition though...

This makes me blink! Ouch! Nice job. Unless this is a mannequin...it almost seems that the shadow would behave differently directly on the eye. Also, just a nitpick...perhaps lighten top area of shadow furthest away... Excellent work!

Simple and sweet. NIce job! Yes...do adjust the shadow to line up with feet.

EDIT: Much better! It needs to be pulled just a bit more to match the foot length.

Nice work! Imaginative and cool.

Very nice! Possibly soften the edge of the back of stage and wall. A beaut!!

This is a nice image. I would like it more if it didn't have the corner lines of each diamond showing depth. Right now, the chess pieces are floating. If you remove the lines and give the chess pieces a set down shadow it will really help.

EDIT: I was liking the less saturated previous version more, but I DO like the edits to those lines mentioned above. Your set shadows are currently wrapping too far around bottom of pieces. Cut them off where the piece width ends softly.

Really nice image...would have loved to see a high res of this.

I really like this image...good job, but there's a line (shift) just to the left of the 'ground ball'...might want to eliminate that...

The blue die has a dark edge where it meets the red die...eliminate that and this will be a real pleasing image.

Boy's expression is perfect! Shark is too blurry. Bet you could find a better one to use with better lighting too. Good luck!

I would say 'practical' was not a requirement here...good job!

Looks really . Too bad you didn't save a high res version. If you do...I'll revisit.

She who denies it, supplies it. Love it! Funny image!

This is funny, but would really top this off if you included the glass too...

Nice idea and very well done. I like the water line showing on the right side.

Almost had me using the vote buttons from the image. Nice job.

Nice image, indeed...but I think you might have missed some masking where the leg and body meet on the small alpaca.

Congrats! Great entry!!!

Congrats! Great entry!!! This was really beautiful.

Congrats! Great entry!!!

Congrats! Great entry!!!

Unusual and cool use of source.

I like the slight variation in hue and brightness on each. Good job!

Excellent job!

Funny idea...but lighting and coloring of urinals are too neutral to be in this setting. Good thinking and good luck

Nice rug!

Some shading would make this already great drawing...even better!

I love the lower importance factor portrayed here...why not have a superhero for this very specific soft drink? Good work..it made me laugh!

Need to agree with Eladine. Good job...right on theme!

Nice job...try blurring the 'feed fish' ever so slightly. The surface it's on...isn't that sharp.

Did a wonderful job with a difficult source image.

Might want to try darkening the shot but holding the lights a bit to give more impact to the beams of light. The beams of light look as if they need a different blending mode than what you're using currently in this image. Interesting shot!

Don't give up on this one, author! The area at bottom of 'space' is very distracting and not necessary imo...it almost looks low res. Try creating your own 'space' scene. It will look far better. If you so decide to do something else with the bottom...it might serve this image well. I really like the top section with the escalators. Keep going...it has a ton of potential.

Funny and well done. I like how you managed to keep the feet and legs of the walker to be similar brightness as the dog. Nice attention to detail.

Nice work and all should view high resolution...very nice.

I interpret the expression to be one of self assurance or self confidence. Steadfast contentment with oneself. Nice work!

Very nice and clean.

I like the drawing, but perhaps label the name of the expression somehow.

Funny idea. Might want to blend and color splash to make it look as if it's coming from THIS body of water. Also, the water below the splash is rather calm.

This is incredibly 'On Theme'. High res is great! Perhaps fix the edges on right and left side. Looks like it might be a mask leak. Also, maybe soften edges a bit. Looks great!

Creative and different idea!

This is really well done. Love the variation on the insides of each slice. However the perspective of the top few 'slices' are on a different perspective than the rest below it. It's not a huge deal...just something I noticed. Very nicely done, though!!

This would be even better with more contrast and make the colors 'pop' more. The windows look a bit flat with odd edges. They almost look beveled slightly. Perhaps try not using the same darkness in the corners of the windows. Soften all edges a bit would also help. Nice job, author!

EDIT: Looks better author.
