Good image. The tentacle behind the figure makes it very hard to judge the shadows but for sure the dark comma shaped shadow to the right of the figure on the ground needs to go. You're on your own for the rest. Reply »

Hey author, great work, my gf loves it.
Tentacles' shadow should be united with the main shadow which should be a perfect elipse. Because of the angle of the light you won't see the projection of the upper side.
Imo, it would add a great effect to make a shadow of the bubble as well, use this as reference:

It definitely looks better, good job!
I don't wanna be pushy, but you should know that the shadow for a suspended object equals the length of an object when light source is above.
So the dark elipse should be same length as the ufo, and the light elipse same length as the diameter of the bubble ( which is an energy shield, right? ). Reply »

I know there are others, but I can't find 'em right now. Good luck! Reply »

Love the illustration look. I personally don't get the title.

Shadows continue to be a problem. The figure's shadow seems to be cast in a different direction than the UFO's. A line drawn from the center of the UFO's shadow through the center of the UFO itself doesn't continue on through the center of the light source. The tentacle shadows don't blend that smoothly into the UFO body's shadow.

With the strong back-light source, the front lighting of the UFO (and especially its underside and the tentacle connections) and the side/slightly-front lighting of the figure seem unnatural. Reply »

cmyk: thank you for the link , it was usefull !
dan: the title cames from buble , if you look at source 3, the sky is in the buble but I blend it at hard light mode and I losee the shape of the clouds, I think I will change this too
for the shadow you are right, but I know now what the problem was
the proble is the shadow of the girl in originaly source , I manipulate the photo ....but I didnt manipulate the shadow og the girl!
I think that if I wash out a little the shadow of the girl and with the right perspective for the other shadows that will be much better!I will try.
Thank you again all, I learn a lot from this entry and this is good! Reply »
