Great work! I thought of impaling her somehow, but never came up with a good concept...my only suggestion is to blend the weird wingy things onto the arms better, like the right arm of the woman at top. Reply »

AH HA.. the battle of the Seraphim's.. quote from the movie Prophecy...

Thomas: "Did you ever notice how in the bible whenever God needed to punish someone, or make an example, or whenever God needed a killing, he sent an angel? Did you ever wonder what a creature like that must be like? A whole existence praising your God, but one wing always dipped in blood. Would you ever really want to see an angel?"

I actually think I captured this image in that quote... hehehe.. good job author..and good job ME.. (Just kidding.. all ego bisquits go to you dear author..hehehe)oh yeah.. and the writers for the move the Prophecy Reply »

Stands apart from the rest. Very original. Reply »

Bit bloody but nice idea with ditto execution. Care for a nitpick to add? Since the pale entered the body from the back, I can imagine that a part of the dress in front would have come out because of the force of the impaling (thanks to CMYK for that word, I didnt know it yet ). So in case you'd like to, you could add some tiny ripped parts of the dress in front of the pale. The other figure looks nice, perhaps if you could hide the repetition in the fabric/wings (right top corner), would be nice. Good luck!

PS just noticed, I think that the flying woman needs a real left hand. Is there a way to flip the hand? Reply »

Top part looks great, like the sky and the girl a lot. Don't like the pierced girl, it seems a bit to set up...how come there's a sharp pole? The story behind the picture lacks..but still great job on the top part. Reply »

This is a fantastic image and (IMO) deserves to be in a better setting perhaps forest or something like that. Reply »

This is a fantastic pic, really cool effect, I think I agree with Nator, the girl in a setting would be a match winner for me, the feathers are a brilliant touch and you have worked them well. Reply »

Is she smoking? GL! Reply »

Reply:

that bird is a previously manipulated image....... my image was removed for using it.... yet this one is stilllll here... Reply »

Reply:

Good, maybe the smoke from her mouth could use some attention and the strange lines from her chest and shoulder dont add a lot. Reply »

Reply:

This is a superb image as I stated earlier but OliviasArts has a valid point about the bird. You don't need it anyway IMO. Good Luck Reply »

Reply:

you might want to watch how many birds are in the pic it might be an overkill but good job and good luck:P) Reply »

Reply:

To Moderators.... You removed my image from this contest because of the bird i used. This image used the exact same bird after my entry. Why is it still in the contest. Do you know who we are when you vote and just pick out people, or do you play fair? I have redflagged this before. You never miss an image when ive done somthing wrong. I think you just pick on the same people! Reply »

I love this image. Great use of source... it's nice not to see "Lace" fly...great job! Maybe you could sharpen the flowers in the front just a little... Good luck Reply »

Reply:

The large vegetation to the right appears to dissapear behind the shoulder. If you lap a tiny bit of it over the soulder I think it would improve the spacial relationship. I really like the color and the mood of the piece. Reply »

Reply:

Thanks for the advice pingenvy, but the idea was to have her stood between the two bushes, to give some depth of field to the image. With the model being the main focus. Reply »

Very good. Good luck Reply »

Beautiful composition...great work Reply »

Agree with Warlock...very art deco. I like this. Take a look at the hi res at the very bottom left of the dress. A peice of the reflection is sticking out from behind the object it reflects. Also, should the large bush have a reflection as well? Great Job. Reply »

Reply:

love it, nice mood nice idea and very well done. seems as if shes floating a bit and i think the flowers in the front and back could be a bit less blurred, my opinion though. good luck Reply »

If the edge of the reflection is so strong I would like to see more of the details from the dress in the reflection as well.(no smudge) Although its nice to give everybody thumbs up, I think you should use it for comments that are usefull to you. Reply »

Very very good job............ Great Entry.........Good Luck Author. Reply »

@Sander I feel it's my choice to give a thumbs up to whom I choose. Also if you note the bronze thumb is a sign of appreciation for the comment. The silver and gold thumbs are used when there are helpful comments.
PS I have never had a comment about thumbs up before
In fact I don't think I've ever seen one. Reply »

Wow, really nice effect. I would love to say that you've got a sure winner here, but looking through the other submissions, you have a few others to contend with. Personally, I'd say if this doesn't win, it'll at least be in the top three. Great concept and just as great entry. High marks from me, good luck. Reply »

be original, please don't imitate or duplicate Reply »

I like this alot. Would recommend doing something with the rendered clouds in the bottom left. Kinda detracts from the overall coolness of the peice. Reply »
