Dinosaur trap - created by langstrum


Dinosaur trap

Once upon a time, there was a smart mice which likes ... dinosaur meat. But how can he do that? There was a magic portal (or door) can be used as a "Dinosaur trap", which converts everything from small size to huge size and vice versa.... Let's see how it works. Have fun ^^
Credits to alegion-stock (DA) for the dinosaur, demoncherrystock (DA) for the mouse, moon-willowstock (DA) for the desert scenery, castock (DA) for the jurassic valley background, caltha-stock (DA) for the roots, hatestock (DA) for the brown mouse, and lucky13 (DA) for the dinosaur bone.

It's the biggest photo I've ever manipulated (around 7000pxl:5400pxl), so it's quite slow in downloading. Because it's very large, maybe some errors I can't see, so please help me to figure them out, then I can improve it. Every constructive criticisms are appreciated. (1 year and 358 days ago)

why can't I use? did you see some stock images with manipulation? I think it's acceptable if I show how did I manipulated it. If you are correct, so many people broke the rule when they use brushes, because they are manipulated also. As I explained, the one I call the trap is a door, it fullfills the topic "This door can be anywhere, can have any purpose you like and can be made out of any material. Just design the craziest door you can think of". The one in the center of the image is my door, a magic door, I don't think it's difficult to imagine.

I think the Dino is ok, since this is what the user says:I, Colin Foss, aka "alegion-stock" hereby give permission for my stock images to be freely used in any and all dA Prints.....

Yes that is ok for the author of the Dino,but PXLeyes rules are clear....That should be guide line for all

@erathion: here is the sentence from Pxleyes guidelines: (UPDATED 08/2009): If you use 3D renders or illustration as sources, the same rules apply as for normal stock photos. So it means I can use the 3D render or illustration.

very unusual, nice imagination.. a portal could be classified as a "door" too i guess

Thank you CMYK46 and elficho, I always wanna bring something extraordinary to the contest but I'm afraid that a part of the voters doesn't accept the strangeness

Very creative idea, but I'm having some problems with the perspective of the stone monolith and the portal. It looks very twisted and almost like falling.. dunno if it's intentional. I'm ok with the portal instead of door, as this is a contest without a source. I don't quite see the point of manipulating this kind of picture with so high resolution, but well.. if your comp can handle it.. You could have shrink the high resolution version still ½ the size or something, not that much small details here really..

author says:

Thank pixelkid, Govindrathod, Widiar. @Widiar: I intentionally created the portal with that shape (a little bit weird in the shape, but no problem in perspective, because it was made by Swift 3D. About the resolution, it's high to me, because I had to restart PTS every 10 min to keep it work normally. However, because of the differences in source qualities, so in some area, there are not many details, but on the Dino or mouse, the quality are high. Just my idea, because it's high or not depend on each person. Thank you again for your comment in details.

I think it's too cluttered and the giant mouse doesn't seem to fit, IMO.
