Can't believe this image ... what a great sense of humour and great work all around. The SBS alone is a work of art! BRAVO and Congratulations!

wow, great!! GL!

Haha! Brilliant little creatures, i love how you created the water line, the whole style is very original. Nice work

Whoa! Awesome...great water line idea. Creates a nice, new perspective.

a slightly brighter color on the DuckBill's above surface part would make this perfect .
great entry

Great work! Love it! Love it a lot!!!

I love the small one, it looks very unique. Just a tiny suggestion, you might use less grainess level when you apply the grain filter to the whole image, in Hi-Res it's a bit too noisy. Good luck, author!

nice! good luck!

well done i like it

hehe.. has a bit of Manatee in him too LOL.. great job.. quite lovely

Fantastic work ,GL

Beautiful job. Good usage of the source image. I love all the concept of your work. Good luck!

Fabulous piece of work...Unique approach and great final result...well done author

even thou it seems to me like you mostly draw and painted above the copped source, the final image is for my taste excellent, very creative and technically well made

you have a high vote from me

beutiful job.., the little creature is so cute..

Lovely job........Good Luck Author.

Seems like you really like horoscope, this one reminds me one of your previous works. Cool chop! However, I have to complain one thing. My sign, Gemini, should be an identical twin hehe

Fantastic piece author...well done

Congrats!

Congrats IDt8r!

Congrats for third.... very nice, lovely work.....

Congrats! This was so creative and well done!

Congrats for the 3rd place

I can imagine what a great battle it was,....I like a dramatizing pic like this one.....

This is great! The white beams of light seem a bit 'hazy' instead of light. Perhaps experiment with a few different blending modes. Duplicate some of the layers if you need more strength. Great job, though author!

Amazing! GL!

Pretty cool design.
In CG there's a concept named "density"= meaning the amount and quality of the texture applied in the image.
Graphic designer try to level the overall density so that their works won't look photoshop/collage.
The main density rupture in this entry is that everything besides the creature is blurry, and most we can see more details on the creature than on the foreground, even if they are both part of the focal point.
Some people use noise/fog brushes to create atmosphere and level the density.
I hope my comment is coherent enough and helps. Congrats on your awesome color palette!

Very nice....ditto to greymval....focus is difficult...texture should be consistent. a great entry none the less. Good Luck author.

I love the image although i am having a hard time seeing the source. But I give kudos for the imagination.

Congrats for your fourth place....nice work....

nice build -- like the use of the handles as feathers -- wings are very nice

Thank you Alan!

well done author it looks like its a robot bird ,nice construction but nice mood & dreamy .GL..

well,...I know it is you,....fav from me.....very nice entry....

nice feathers but the face looks a little odd to me the face doesnt blend with the body and the red thing on the top of it . IMO .. otherwise its nicely done

Thanks for comments you all.

Nisha: of course it looks odd, remember, this is something that you have to do using some of the source image. I know birds does not look like this particular one. Mine is a combination of mechanical tools and some feather like smudging. This is just an entry for this contest. Imagination counts! Even if it is not real.

yup imagination counts and all the best author I have always loved ur work

Nice reflexions of light, great use of the source, GL!

Thanks again Nisha. I always like your comments too. All comments are appreciated.

Great work!! GL

love the colors, good entry!!

nice and recognizable source use, only thing that hurts my view is that the tail begins from under the wing of the bird. good luck

wow this is so good...all elements fit perfectly...well done author

beautiful bird... nice one

well I love the bird, but he doesn't look like he'd taste like chicken.. hehehe.. very fun image

Thanks for comments all. Good luck!
