Just lighten the edge where the girl's arm is in front of the boy. Fun image!

Thanks for suggestion, it's better now?

ggrreeeaaattt idea

Try a small soft round eraser brush or a soft brush to mask along the edges of her hands where they rest on the sketch part. Cool idea a little tweak on the masking will do it right.

Good fix, great concept!

Thanks for the tip @lchappell, i will try.

very nice take on this contest -- well done like the effect.

This is very creative, author, and you got a perfect photo to use.

Thank you Pearlie
!

Author I see a major difference. Looking better, glad I had something useful to say for you. Welcome to PXL BTW.

Thank you Ichappell, is nice to be here, around nice and talented peoples. I'm sure i have many great things to learn!

Splendid my good boy .

Splendid my good boy .

this is hardly a sketch, and you should link the tutorial! IMHO

It's a very interesting effect, but it's not a sketch as the contest describes...At best, it is a layer mask scribble, so is Off Topic for this contest.
The background is okay, since the body would be your main focal point, but the scribble itself is unimpressive, since there is no direction or emphasis with the technique, just an "any direction" bunch of marks.

I was thinking about the effect obtained if you put a piece of paper over a coin, and "scrible" over it with a pencil...but in my picture, i kept the colors ...

outa the box.. I like it good luck author (Looks like Freddy)

Thanks Drivenslush, finnaly, someone who appreciate, not criticize.

I like the effect as well.. I got what your concept was, I played with that concept a lot when I was a kid... let mods decide about it being on theme or not.. but your effect, I'm definitely going to try for my FB profile pic..

This is cool, good luck Author

Thanks iquraishi and cabldawg71 !!

I like the effect too but it's not a sketch because the face is too visible as a photography. Good luck author.

Thanks a lot...now i can wait for mod to remove my work... it's a sketch, a new type of sketch, invented by ME!

What's the source for the people?

I forgot to add the people source
This is it:

believable scene

Thanks aheman!

The most artistic one of them all .

why are the people in the ground? atleast that is what it looks like. If they aren't in the ground they are very very small and squished.

No they aren't, to me ,the proportion between people and support poles, seems ok...

Needs SBS. Very confusing.

The tornado has no "funnel cloud" shape or movement, and the water waves are very fake looking.

Mossy...i think the tornado no need to be so realistical... but i will try to make the waves look better..

can i say something ?
no ?

I'll say it anyway

entry posted 3 days ago and no sbs Yet

Trees in the middle of the sea !!! OK OK

and yes it needs to be realistic because the plane and trees are realistic

A tornado in the sea is called Typhoon i guess lol

good luck

Yes yes... you're right..i had no time to post it, and i forgot.. so forgive me....

And now i can't edit it..

Good luck author
