Nice Work.

I prefer the pic from the link you sent, the balance of the image is much better, the character pops up on this one. To answer your question, I'd prefer a hug than a kiss on first date

Great job!
You could add the final steps as an animated gif in the final step. Not necessary, just a suggestion

They're supposed to be tentacles shooting out of her mouth like she is some kind of monster. I didn't know how to make tentacles shooting out of someone's mouth, so I used an octopus. Maybe earthworms or something would have been better, but I did my best.

Both versions look good to me. The only thing that confuses me is the octopus.
Is she is eating it or it is supposed to be part of her face?

Not so sure Z. I tried it out here and she doesn't seem to stand out as much. What do you think? I am open to either way.

You are right CMY, I thought there was something wrong but didn't know what to do about it. I've added some cloud brushes on the cloud (some old free cloud brushes I loaded long time ago without keeping the reference, but there are so many!)

Very good, except the blurry bottom of the cloud is unconvincing...might have been better to use cloud brushes.

Really or are you joking? So if I had an orange moth I could ask Uncle Google and .............never mind, I'm gonna try it myself. Thank you.

Horribly creepy, I like it! For a better framing of the image, you could add some space at the bottom, under the hand, and maybe on the right side too, just to avoid cutting the dress.

I asked Google for a white furry hairy bug!

Thanks for the invitation! I look forward to that, driving along the steppes of Mongolia singing silly songs with hitchikers, drinking vodka with the locals... sounds very promising

CONGRATS SYLVIE on second but my oh my that was a splendiferous post and so well done, in my heart it is also a number one.

Mercy Buckets.

Thank you George55 for stopping by and encouraging me.

You haven't been deleted so I guess this is kosher. I have learned from belonging on here thanks to members like Zizounai, Skyangel and you...and of course the photoshop aspect of pyxleyes is a learning experience. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for your suggestions and the link. This hobby we have is just fabulous isn't it????....it is so much fun getting creative and meeting new like minded people. yay yay yay.

If you and your other half decide to go let me know because I want to go back. If we do go around the same time we could do the tour together and visit families ...it takes a week or more (depending on tour). We did this with a young German girl (who is now a psychiatrist) and it was just so much fun. We sang in the car and she was singing a chicken song that sounded almost as silly as HALLOOOO OLGA song. We sang our way across the Mongolian Plains and when we picked up hitch hikers....they also had to sing. We had songs sung in Mongolian, Ukrainian, German, Japanese and of course the Canadian National Anthem..... (ahem).

I never knew that, thank you very much for enlightening me. How did you do that? Did you know what this beast was or did you somehow do a search that I'm ignorant of, nonetheless, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Merci beaucoup mone cherie.

Thanks George.

A big bear hug back to you.

"Please don't be shy to tell me how to improve in photo manipulation work as I'm fairly new to it. Thanks again. "

There is a site called Udemy that does online courses. They are offering a Photoshop course called "Mastering Photoshop CC 2017: Learn like a Pro" for FREE!!! It's a 20 hour course and retails for $200 (yea right).

https://www.udemy.com/adobe-photoshop-cc-for-beginners-online/?couponCode=NIEL2017&siteID=TnL5HPStwNw-TGk4oxkI3E3siprLVMNDeA&LSNPUBID=TnL5HPStwNw

If you ever need any help, feel free to PM me. I am always eager to talk Photoshop so don't be shy. I will try to critique your Chops from now on and maybe it will help.

Google Video Search and Youtube are chock full of video tutorials from beginner to advanced. Even Googling some variant of "Photoshop Tutorial" into Google Images can work. You get to see the image of what the tutorial is about, and pick one that suits your needs. You can Google things like "Scary Photoshop Tutorial", "How to do Shadows in Photoshop Tutorial" or w/e. The other day I didn't know how to make stars, so I Googled "How to Make Stars in Photoshop Tutorial" and now I am a master haha.

***MODS*** please note that I am in no way affiliated with Udemy, nor to the best of my knowledge is this an affiliate link as I got it from Google. If this is against the rules to post links like this, feel free to delete that from this post.
