I like your idea and work here.
The end result looks good.

I have my doubts about the vignetting, for me this doesnt add to the image. It gives me the feeling that the animal is beeing squished, instead of making it stand out. But that is a personal prefference. Reply »

Very nice effect! great idea and perfect execution Perhaps a wet skin would have added to the effect but its allready great as it is. Awaiting a step by step to see how the painting was made. Reply »

Thanks for taking the time to comment/compliment Eladine; I appreciate it.

I didn't want to wet the skin of the tattoo part as I wanted to keep it graphic, and I figured Shamu had enough as is. Making a SBS now, but can't see anywhere how I upload it....?

cheers. Reply »

I hope its not closed to upload yet but normally it should be under the tab "My stuff" ---> My contest entries ---> and there should be an edit option..

Just checked quickly and as it is now in an entry I have somewhere its not showing either the edit button anymore... So im affraid you cant edit it anymore I think its closing automatically finally . o.o; well you could upload what you have, if you want to add it still, to imageshack.us ( image hosting where you dont need an account and thus the image links are anonymous) and post it in a comment. Though that is up to you. Reply »

Thanks Eladine..

Yep... couldn't see a "make SBS".. should be something that you can always add, me thinks.

I did upload it here:
