Nice blend, good idea!

Actually it got away... Very creative idea!

gonna see a lot more of this in the gulf.. sigh (great job!!)

don't forget to show the 'before' picture - either in the sbs or as a source image. nice cut!

v nicley done, i like the realism and the fact its not over the top. Nice cut!

The cut edges (around hair, mostly) really need to be blended better. The wound on the mouth looks pretty nice, though. Good Luck!

I agree with SweetSue about the edges.
Now, a question: did you have a reason to do it to him???

thanks for the advice sweetsue/erikuri, i attempted to fix it by bluring/smudging but it was difficult i will work on it and try and improve though

.... haha he should know better than to steal my cookies! :P

Funny

Thanks!

lol, original and funny, good luck to you!!

Great idea!

Congrats for your third place, Heinrich!

Thanks!!!!

Congratulations!

Thank you!

I guess that's you . Simple but very nice, especially color and looks cartoonish . Good luck ^^!

very very fluffy fun.. good thing the train wasn't scheduled for that back hill.. train would go bye bye.. GREAT JOB!!! (tweek the edge of the hill so that track doesn't look like it just cut off in space. ) IMHO (all fixed.. great job)

EDIT.. yes the farthest hill's rail looks like it just ends not goes behind the other hill.. I'm sure it's super simple, but it does draw the eye.. (GREAT JOB ALL ROUND)

Thanks to the both of ya. Drivenslush, are you referring to the track piece in the upper-left? If so, I see what you're saying and I can try darkening the hill edge a bit.

looks almost 3-D, NJ
The only suggestion I have is to blur the back balloon a bit to create a depth of field.

lol it's lovely, nice work

Very cute and criative!

Just one little thing (really little): train's wheel perspective is a bit odd, imo... It could be just my impression!

Thank you all! I was thinking about that, Kid. I'll give it a try. Erikuri, you're right--the wheels may be skewered a bit. I'll see if I can make it any better, but I'm afraid I might mess it up since I merged the train for some transform adjustments. Drivenslush, will fix ASAP.

EDIT: Fixed the hill edge. Look any better now? Kid, I tried the blur thing but it took away from the cartoony look, as you can't make out the tracks too clearly.

nice work... love this mood...

Nice work author

It still looks good without adding the blur
