nice job

awesome author.... nice job

Very funny!

Changing the light on the hand, would make it perfect.

Edit: No not too bright. The colors are fine. Just the hand is missing out the light wich is casted on everything else.

Does this look to bright? I'm having a bit of a conflict with my two monitors and the laptop. They look okay on my pc screens but bright on the lappie. Would appreciate some feedback on this.

EDIT: Thanks, changed the lighting on the hand

Good job !

Nicley done!! 5*

I remember that game, and searching through the dogs poop for the missing players LOL great job

ew at drivenslush comment LOL great idea author!

good theme

Great take on this, love the fingers getting ready to scoot the player!

If you were to put the guy in front and the guy in back out of focus it would really punch up the visual of them being miniature toy players..

If you do a search for "tilt pan" you will get a better visual reference and explanation.

Good luck, this one is one of my faves of the bunch.

Congrats! Well done.

Congrats on your second place, you did a great job.

wow, looks really good, how did you find that man in that pose to fit him in.

There's a masking problem on the sky, I think a layer got out of place ( left side of the image right above where the wing finishes). It's pretty obvious actually even in low res.
Besides that, you have a nice entry with a good mood and a nice compositional triangle: sun in the clouds, man's butt (cause of warm color contrast + taboo ) and the white feather. You could even crop from the left, and it would still look fit.

Thanks for the heads up Greymval. Didn't catch that one ! My eyes are failing me as I head towards the top of the hill. Not long before I'm over it LOL Will rectify the problem ASAP.

EDIT: fixed

@emiK I couldn't find an actual fit, that's why puppet warp in CS5 is invaluable

His rump most be FREEZING!!! very neato!!!

i still see the left top gray square

cool one, one of the better in this contest

congratulation...

Congrats! Well done!

Congratulations!!! Have a cookie!

note: cookie is purely hypothetical.

Congrats!!

Congrats on your win

WOW!!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!!! You wouldn't happen to have maybe a step by step? Pretty please

@MnMCarta. Thank you!! Please bear with me and keep your eye on this entry. I will recreate the SBS in FULL soon. This is a really, really old entry from PST. (I rarely keep my SBS's beyond a few months as I have a smallish HDD and it gets clogged) I posted a few steps to keep in-line with the contest theme requirements. As it's you I'll do the image again with the full SBS.

OH TY!!!!!! and can you detail the "how-to" as if I never used PS before? I remember a lot of buttons just the terminology kills me! I'm just a southern gal with a little vocab. LOL

super idea, bravo!

Awesome! I'm not the old PST member but I this is the second time I see that work. Really love how you distorted the characters and make the realistic shadows, the idea is exceptional. One tiny thing is the white stroke around his mouth in the reflection seems shouldn't be there

great work, really like how you add this all together

This...... is cool!.....nice work!

It’s a good idea and not a bad render, but to me your lighthouse looks to be leaning over slightly, and what are the uniform marks on the rocks in the foreground looks like a hessian texture overlaid on top?.

Thanks Warlock. The hessian thingy is an artifact from the DOF on the camera, but then I thought you'd know that. I didn't use a Vray physical cam. So the leany thing is just a camera distortion. I know, coz I had the rotate gizmo set with angle snap and it was perfectly set to 90 degrees on both the camera and Lighthouse. I did however use fairly low render settings due to my poor machine. Subdivs@500 Irradiance map@ Medium.
So you can see that it's not the best render. You've not put an entry up for a while Warlock. Are we going to see one sometime? Maybe I could learn some stuff from you I'm always looking to improve. The more I learn the better I will get. (3DS Max is HUGE, with a very steep learning curve. Maybe you could stick some tuts up for PXLeyes?)

Sorry I don’t use vray, and for good reason......only Brazil Rendering System or Octane Render GPU Unbiased Render Engine and Maxwell render. I have 3D max but gave up on it a long time ago in version 4,obnoxious and gimmicky to much clicking around the screen for just the most simples process, it may be industry stranded dose not mean that it is the best, there are a lot more capable application out there that do the job better and quicker.

As for entry’s when they become more creative and challenging I will, I put up three or four suggestion but they got passed over.

If you have any question just P.M me and I will see if I can help.

Really nice work author...best of luck

Congratulations for 2nd, looks really good.

thank you guys.........

Congrats!!!
