it's a very elegant image. I'm sure you're going to get it for lack of source, but sometimes you just have to express yourself.. and in this..you did quite well... I LOVE IT

great image... i like purple... that is my weaknes... lol

i love this only thing i would change is the background it makes your awsome shape look flat.

This looks very nice, good luck!

Yes, "elegant" is the word for this. Well constructed. I Only think, you lost something of the beautifull colors in the process (they were still there in step 5).

awesome

A lovely design and rendition but far removed from the source image.

Author this is really good. I added to my favs and as far as the bg its your work. good luck

cool image i added in my faves also

Fantastic! Although I liked the multiple colors better, seems to fit the source more.

remarcable work, well done

wow!!

very well done!...good luck author

Great image but where has the source gone? Your technique is good but really you lost the source in the process which is a shame. Safe this kind of entries for the theme contests or make sure the source is still there. You didn't need this source to make this image.

nice!

Fun image, reminds me of fractals, or of some kind of microscopic pond organism. Nice job!

i love this image

Cool! Beautiful piece!!

Bravo Author.. beautifully done

Brilliant image fantastic lighting & shadow top job!

Iii like it! Although i HATE clowns, this looks more like a candy

Great to see him again! Wonderful image!

excelent work... and a good prank too... lol

Perfectly playful image, and incredible detail and realism. I love it. The highlights / reflections and shadows are superb -- I can definitely learn a lot from you / it. Even the background is well done! Great job!

xcellent wrk..here...

Great idea!!!!

Maybe continue that wonderful white reflective line through the blue and continute it through the black cover shell (the black cover is looking a little flat) great visural over all

the idea is superb!

Really good idea. I agree with GolemAura about the black window, it does look a bit flat. Bring back the highlight that was there before you blackened the window area. Black glass would reflect light just as when it was blue. Try copying the original before adding black and put it on a layer over it. Experiment with layer types like luminous and different opacities till it looks right. Adding the highlight would really make it pop.

nice idea ... GOOD LUCK

hahha cooooooooool!

High marks and wonderful SBS.. you might want to add a gradient inner jaw.. just draw an oval behind the jaw of the big one and fill it with a gradient (dark to light coming from throat.. not necessary, but you did so much work I figure a bit more wouldn't hurt LOL) It's fine just the way it is, but I was thinking of the neat effects you worked on.. )

EDIT: Grrrrrrrrrrreat fix... good luck author

Haha, thanks GolemAura, i'll get right to it!

Edit: There you go..voila

You should also post the tutorial you used to make this.

Very interesting image, to me they don;t really look like flowers, but i like the idea. Good luck!

coool

looks like a Van Gogh piece of art... very nice...

Very pretty! I love the way you combined and distorted the bulbs to form the petals -- great thinking and very original! I think you might have been able to achieve some more realism without the texture filter on the plants though. Again though, incredibly original and great execution!
