Thanks guys for your comments, they are greatly appreciated. I haven't participated much lately, the first of the year I lost my son in a hunting accident and my heart just hasn't been into photoshop a great deal. But we all know..photoshop is an addiction...and it's an addiction I really enjoy. Thanks again everyone!!

There is nothing I can say to relieve your loss... but the love exists.. for always.. much sympathy

Congrats Abe!!

Congrats on your second place

he is very floofy! (I want to stick my finger in his belly to make him giggle like the Pillsbury Dough Boy )

Just be careful, he might be hungry now

amazing blending, i'm impressed, just one tiny suggestion, why not giving it's fur something like tiger stripes, by that could get even more combined animals, great job and good luck

Exceptional blending on the face. Very well done entry!

Thank you all for your comments. @orientallad: I actually planned to do that but the 4 animals contest restricted the number of creature to 4. Now I'm free from the rule so I might give it a try, thank you for your suggestion.

Great work, just love him!!!!!

Very good blending, a like the new specie result.

Ah, I know it! It's Ursus aquiliatus ibexii or The Goatly Hawk-bear.

Great work... the blend is perfect!! good luck!!

Very nice GL

This things is absolutely furry and cute. Too bad you didn't get a chance to upload it in time.

no wonder it is so perfect,...it is yours and it is my fav for sure.....!

Fantastic image and amazing creature...Best of luck author, u still made perfect entry's...

I second all the comments so far -- just a suggestion for a small improvement: the horn on the right is touching the border - an easy fix - excellent otherwise

Maybe not the wisest thing to say but you should have won.
Because I see a artist and this is something I would hang on my wall (something I would never do with most of the entries)
And thats all I wanted to say

Congrats!!

Thanks everyone for voting, comment, and faving my entry, I appreciate your supports ^^

wow this is amazing! great blending! congrats

nice composition

Very beautiful scene, great mood and colors.

Great lighting and shadow consistency. Well done.

Thank you and good to know that you like it.

Great use of my countryman Ramon Conde's sculpture, good luck!

I'm in love with it o.O mesmerizing

It's fantastic. I like it a lot.

spooky - excellently done - nice tonal range - good color

The idea is great!! But need some touching up more shadow and a bitt more color in the background makes that she really *pops* out

a man called horse... good luck

Very interesting, well done!

Needs a better shadow (look at source shadow), and you might want to cover the nipple with a crack brush just in case.

I really like this, the concept is brilliant!
I also agree about the shadow on the floor. The closer her body is the darker the floor shadow. Try not to add any shadows to her body....just the floor.
In my opinion the cracks are a bit messy on her back and could use a quick clean up.
Don’t "censor" any nipples....it would ruin it. A fav for me!

thx for the comment peeps, changed the things ur just mentioned hope it looks better now

Author this is wonderful imagination and i like the final product...Also, shadow under the lady should be darker and more consistent...look at her arm, its visible that dont fit there, but with good shadow all of this can be avoided...use, big soft black brush, zoom this and go with brush under the girl....Let opacity at start be 100% but make it lower when u done...Any how i give u high marks for great imagination...best of luck

great idea and well done overall, the angle the ropes/wires make seems a bit off and the skin (imho) should be pulled more, but that's just me --
