I like the idea of added scales to the dragon statue. You were very creative in your implementation of the faucet when you set out to do this. I would, however, recolor and shade your scales a bit more so that they blend better with the statue (right now they appear to be floating above the picture as opposed to being a part of it). Also, I would give consideration to losing the fire. It seems a bit too cartoony, and to be honest it doesn't heighten the image in my opinion. Still, nice work! Keep it up and you'll have something amazing in no time!

It's a very good idea, i'm not denying that, but it looks like too much of a copy and paste job if you know what i mean. Good luck with this anyway, but tehre isn;t much more to say Magicsteve pretty much covered it all. Good luck!!

yikes author.. I think magicsteve and ponti have put you through the ringer .. I'll just skiddaddle out of here before they come after me LOL

Nice start on your image here taking into account that this site is for all lvls of P/S skills, I am gonna say nice job and keep up up the good work. I would try and do a wee bit more with the image. But good luck all the same .

usage of source image is very little, and the fire looks unreal or unfinished.

Just keep practising, and learn from others.
