Apart from what's written above, I personally would get rid of the grass brushes. Imo they look off compared to the rest of your drawing and they dont look watercolour-ish either. Good luck!

The blending is pretty ok, but if I compare to the skull, then I expect the nose and mouth to be lower. Good luck!

Cant add much more than spaceranger already said, well done indeed! Good luck!

Pretty well done and good example for this contest! Good luck!

Smart and original take on the theme. Good luck!

The upper legs could do with a bit other angle so that they're more resting on the seat of the chair, but for the rest very funny image, good idea and nice details (the cigaret, great ). Good luck!

Good improvement, imo! Good luck!

Nice image with nice colors and good action, but there´s something about the gorilla´s head that imo is not all correct. It´s like it´s right ear (left for viewer) is attached to the shoulder. Also for the left side it looks like a shoulder is missing, but that it's straight from neck to arm. Maybe if from the head's right side you can get rid of the part that connects to the arm would fix a lot already. And maybe you have to put the head in total a bit lower so there's more connection with the arm (or maybe make the upperarm a bit thicker). Apart from that, welldone image with good image pick. Good luck!

Good improvement imo! Good luck!

Cool indeed! If you can highlight some parts that are coming towards the viewer some more, it might be even more outstanding. And if you have more time left and feel like doing something about the mirroring image (to make the left side a bit different from the right side), then it would be really great. But so far good job! Good luck!

Pretty funny. Unless it's also a hallucination, you may wanna check the curve from the thumb to wrist. It's a bit transparent (you see the book through it), on both sides. Good luck!

Funny, a quiet place but then with a girl playing guitar . Pretty welldone construction. Tiny nitpick would be to or use more different gulls or remove some cause now they look just a bit too much the same. Good luck!

This joke _demands_ a link to this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCBn5J83Poc&feature=related. Recommended for *everyone* with a tiny little bit sense of humor.
Ontopic: looks quite freaky, well done . But maybe you can copy-paste a bit more from the elephant body to use as structure for on top of the body. Not all of it, just to dissolve the skin a tiny bit smoother (likely you need smething like overlay blend). Good luck!

Quite convincing result. If you can blend the bushes under a bit better, right now I see a vertical cut between them, for the rest well done. Good luck!

Good face, good name, good wooden leg, but as you mention yourself it needed a bit more time to make it a real finishing touch. However, funny for sure! Good luck!

Nice that you made the viewer look with the demons (over their shoulder), but imo the city itself could do with some more cave-feeling too (now it's a bit too much a normal sky). Good luck!

Pretty well done. Two tiny nitpicks, the top of the wall behind the horse doesnt fit well together (first it goes up, then right of the horse it's lower again and horizontal), maybe you can fix it with transform. Other thing is that I'm not that fond of the shadow for the horse, it looks a bit dirty. Compare it to the original shadow and see how it should look like. Good luck!

Pretty nice work, I kinda agree about the suitecase although you can also make another funny story about that (for in the image, in fact it fits well for your story). Just curious how you used the last 2 sources. Good luck!

People above, you should see some more Sesame Street . Good luck!

Quite funny. There might be a problem with the perspective. In the original pic, the elephant's legs and truck are on one line. The way you put them in the water looks like the trunk is way more closer to the viewer than the legs. If you mask the trunk some more till the same level as the legs I think it'll look more logical. Good luck!

In the lighter background the tiny details are more visible, I think. Good luck!

Since no one else asked: Freelensing? What's freelensing? Good luck!

When I saw the HighRes, I knew there's only one who could do this...and I was right . Good luck!

Quite dramatic image, well done for that. For me I just miss some connection between the background (which is an impressive shot!) and the bridge parts, it's like they have complete different perspectives. Any way to fix that? Good luck!

Funny, reminds me a little bit of the movie Ruthless People . Tiny textual nitpick: "really" on the 3rd row needs double L. Good luck!

Not bad at all, but according to the text not threatening enough, imo. What if you change it a little bit that i.e. the wife (I guess) demands from her hubby to be more a helping hand at home instead of help his friends to get rid of money that has been spent on beer and such? And then the hand is from one of his friends. Just an idea . Good luck!

Good pick of source, funny result . Tiny nitpick, the window frame is blurry because in the source image the focus in on the outside. The dog however is sharp, just as the foreground. In that case the frame cant be blurry. If you have some time left you might want to make a sharper window frame. Good luck!

Nice one, I like the perspective and the expression of the ghost! Erikuri mentioned a jelly effect, is it maybe an idea to make the ghost (it is some kinda ghost in the game, no?) a tiny bit transparent? Up to you. Good luck!

Pretty cool! I think if you remove the text above (or put it in some computer screen or whatsoever), it will fit the theme more. After all the idea is that it has to be a "real" life situation. Good luck!

Fun idea! Tiny suggestion: if you remove the backpaw behind the body and put a bit of shadow under the front backpaw, the frog will look more like standing on the road. Good luck!

Idea is funny of course, but I think it would have worked even better if you didnt use the smudge tool, but just kept the tree for what it was. Good luck!

Nice result indeed. Although you already mention yourself about the background, I do think it's a bit of a pity that you made it like this. It's just not fitting enough with the foreground, which is really a good result. Is it an idea to make it all way darker like in the painting so that the very nice drawing in front will get more attention?
To the rest of the voters, check the HighRes before you vote, it has some very nice details. Good luck!

Karaflazz: since I'm too lazy to search for the book, I can recommend you this movie http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0371724/
That will answer all your questions
@ author: good luck!

I agree with all that's written above. If you cant find a good alien picture, you make the aliens yourself, of course! There's already a great base with these weird helmets. Just copy-paste them a couple of times and create something spacey with them. Remove the men's ears, put antennas on top of the heads, etc. I'm pretty sure you can do that. And dont forget to make the top of the pyramid look less erased. Good luck!

Not bad, but you may want to recheck the shadows. Right now it looks like the shadow is some kinda corona around the money, but it should be only on the table. Light comes from left (more or less), so the shadow should be only on the right side of the money. Good luck!

Wow, this background is new for me. It looks nice but imo it doesnt have enough connection with the Mona Lisa self (ML has a lot of dramatic shading, background is way more lighter overall & demands too much attention right now. The original ML has a way softer bg). Is there a way to keep them more together? In case you still feel like to change something, check the other paintings by Vermeer and most of all, check the terrific use of light that he could create (very softly gradients). Good luck!

Ow, and something about the entry itself. It looks nice for sure, but maybe you can give her hands also some aging effect? Good luck!

I think I can congratulate you with the longest SBS ever on PXL . Good luck!

Nice work, good use of technique compared to the original. Maaaaaybe the bird is a bit too detailed already, but that's very nitpicking. Good luck!

Nice work, I like the colors. The reflection is a bit distracting the way it is right now, imo. Good luck!

Why plugging the leak?! Because MacGyver is a HERO!
Nice entry, good thinking! Good luck!

Oops, I accidentally removed my comment (stupid me thought it was the edit-button ), but wanted to add it's way better now! . Good luck!

Not sure how I should see this, is the lighthouse before or behind the rocks? Because the road to the lighthouse seems to end in front of it, but then the house is also covered by a rock...bit confusing. Good luck!

The best advice I can give you is to do some research. That is, check pictures (you rather not actually want to kill somebody ) and see how blood behaves on an object (and then look at the light, the color, things like that). Good luck!

The lamp looks quite nice. Problem is just that -like the glasses on the table- the lamp is too sharp compared to the other source that you used. If you could give the glass parts some blur, it likely would fit better in the image. Good luck!

Nice work, must be seen in HiRes. I like the leaves that are blown away by the wind. Good luck!

Certainly not bad, it's just a pity that the source image is a bit blurred compared to the external photos. Good luck!

Congrats! Also congrats with this great shot! Good luck!

Pretty image. Good luck!

Very nice, still want to see the Deltawerken once. Good luck!
