I couldn't resist attempting to make this image. Its always been one of my favorite scenes. I've drawn it, colored it, painted it and finally photoshopped it.There were a great deal of steps involved because of all the versions I toyed with. This is the one I settled on. I'm sure there are areas that will need improved but at this moment I'm fairly pleased. I used smoke brushes for the letters. they were created by
Digit-L-teknique at Deviantart.
Grass brushes by calthyechild
at Deviantart.
The caterpillar was by SunRunnerStock at Deviantart.
The Shisha brush was created by Dr-Garushi
at Deviantart.
The other images used were my own and are included in the SBS. (5 years and 3023 days ago)

Great concept, nice chop, but too dark at the bottom. You can't even see Alice's feet...

Thanks, I'll try to correct it. Maybe too much curve.

I can still see her feet and I think the lighting is fine. However it's the caterpillar that I think needs attention. There's a couple hard edges I think you could improve with liquefy and push tool. Play around with liquefy, but be careful it can sometimes make a bigger mess. The hookah is a nice touch! GL!

I agree about the caterpillar. If you have trouble with the liquify tool, try dodge and burn on the upper portion to give it the roundness like the lower half of the caterpillar. Do the smoke letters spell anything? If so I can't make out what it says. If not, then I would use the source smoke instead. It's more realistic. Resize ,skew, or whatever to replace the letters. Cool concept, and nice SBS............GL.........................JB
