I liked the painting look that you achieved there! Also liked the calm feeling that you've got there... But, try to look again at the feet... I mean, they aren't touching the ground... Look at it, and if you can fix it, this image will be excellent! ;)

Thanks, I'll will try to zoom in a little more so I can bring the shadows closer to it feet, and darken it in a bit more. Hopefully that will give me the desired effect. I cant actually make him stand on the ground because his just a stamp, but a very cool stamp I must add. Good looking out!

i have to say its the same problem with me too its like cut and past on 3rd party softwares like adobe. i love the curves you give to mountains in your scenes. in end very nice capture of nature.

Spring has sprung :) It's a great, pastoral scene. With the shadows and stuff, I've found using a very small grass-type brush (I use photoshop default) useful as a few discreet whisps around the feet seem to make an animal look more as if its standing in the grass, rather than on it. Having said that, it's just a thought and it's a great use of a stamp :)

You got me pining for the hills again with this excellent scene Shelly, the little animals is soo cute. Excellent! Huggss.
