not bad

love the facial expression

the inside part of the ribbon needs a little noise..it has no texture...will hold my vote

Thanks RickLaMesa for suggestion, I have applied texture from source to all inner part.

Author ribbon style was done lots of times,especially in surreal images,but your work is so realistic that i am speechless...well done for imagination,blend and idea...best of luck

Very well 'twisted', author! Nice effect.

Nice image and work author! The effect is pretty convicting. Could do with a little refinement in places.

White edges need to be removed mostly at the bottom on the (viewer’s right, images left) and if you take another look at the spiral/helix you will see that they both finish behind the shoulders. This IMHO is incorrect There would be too much weight at the top. And the head and shoulders would bend forward. The final spiral (viewer’s right, images left the one on the side of the berry plant) needs to be connected to the front. I know this is a massive nitpick and lot of work for you. But the devils in the details

Thanks Warlock , I have made some major changes.

really neat twist on the source.. GOOD LUCK author

better if you didn't use filter on the cube, but good luck :P

the butterfly adds a nice touch

A touch of Midas!

nice idea... the mustache im not too keen on though

Simply wonderful!

Mmm - popular idea, you've done a good job on it.

Indeed a popular idea, shame he looks so sad, as he always made people laugh were ever he went.......one of britons greatest.

honestly, Warlock...you are right...but your comment brought me to remember a quote from "The Watchmen" movie..said by Rorschach.. "I heard a joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life is harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. The great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor... I am Pagliacci." Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll on snare drum. Curtains."

sometimes the clown is the saddest man there is. for he paints his face to hide his pain.

nice image author. a big chaplin fan!

Pretty cool composition. You could try to achieve a bit more realistic skin for them, at least something not so blurry. Also the eyes needs some work, as now it looks like the eye has been pasted on top of the mask.. should try some light shadows. I'm not sure where the first man's arm is, but it seems like the leaves are between his necklace (which is very cool btw) and skin.. which shouldn't be the case, I think. Thou if it's also part of the camouflage like with others, I think it would be better if the leaves would cover some parts of the necklace too. I like the shield too.. ninzaaaaaaz...

thanks for stopping by to comment ... it was indeed helpful...

added shadows to adjust the mask, gave subtle txtr for skin... yep, it still looks lil painted and i prefer it... yeah, leaves are the part of camouflage.. thou meddled with it a lil..

hope its better...

edit: yep added shadows on tree... thanks for all the nice comments and suggestions... its really helpful...

cooooooooooollllllllllllll

Creative idea....I would say Widiar has pretty much covered everything here......The only thing that you may want to add is a shadow on the tree from the tribal worrier (he looks close enough to be casting one)

very cool construction author...good luck

very interesting!

Very cool and different from the others!

Good improvements.

Sword would be casting a shadow as well......

Who? You?

good but there is something strange with the door

hahahahah very cool author

Shadow at right is wrong.

Yikes.. does anyone else smell the HUGE scent of "Auto-epistemicism?

There is a gap in the arm of the figure one the right, it's particularly obvious in high res, i don't know if it's deliberate or not. Good imagination.

Anyone smell the equally noxious scent of DENIAL? The shadow is wrong. It does not show the open space between the arm and body. Elementary.

There's that smell again.. smells like booze and dirty socks

Wrong. Shadow. Period.

Now where did I put that Febreeze... I should have a left over citronella candle around here somewhere... PU

FANTASY. Period. which means I can do anything I want.. so..

Is he gonna be normal?!?......fabulous head u made for the poor thing author...

Great entry !!! all freekyDeeky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G/L
