file_208264.jpg

About 20 photos (skull from net, rest by me), 7 hours of continuous Photoshopping. I'm damn proud, did not know I can do something like this. Pushed my edges one stone further. Me sleep now. Me tired. .n ps. damned 200k limit flattens the colors bit.

If you ask me, I like it the way it is. :-)

Not that much actually, but Niko, Can I have a large size file to print? My god, its fantastic....reminds me of the Dreamcatcher image in a way....7 hours of work well done, and certainly well pleasing....To me it has an intensely ancient feel to it....the serpentine effect and the skull are fantastic, the muted colors, brush and stone, and then the canvassy linen feel just adds to it. WELL DONE!

Such compsite work is nothing I can do for the time being [and, I'm not sure for the future either... :)]. Because of that, I'm generally a little bit reluctant to criticise such work. Still, may I present two humble opinions..? 1- The front 1/3 of the lower jaw is quite dark, and thus merges to the dark hills at the far, and they seem to be in the same focal plane. Would it be better to lighten that part of the jaw that it is seperated from the background..? 2- The thick and orange band extending from the nose of the beast to the right border... Is it really needed (at least that harsh) to keep the info of a settin (or rising..?) sun alive, or is it a little bit contradicting with the overall and very fine pastel color spectrum of this superb image..? Anyway...the concept...and the realisation... I'm just watching...

Great image. No keep the head as it is!!! Please, to me that is what gives it the 3D feel. I think I kinda agree with Dorsukal the bright band which seems to almost emerge from the skuls nostril is a little jarring. I think the color is to bright. Perhaps you can tone it down just a very little tad bit and add the same texture as the top of the photo. It also makes me imagine that the skull could be breathing fire from the nostril. Either way great work. the fabric texture give the picture an almost tapestry "feel" Bsteph
