A couple of colour adjustments were added to the sky and as for the sparkling around the wings i just made a custom brush and increased the scattering. A speedy entry!

Noah's Ark

Noahs Ark

It's a little small.. maybe it's the prototype! The boat was made completely with the source. The stairs were transformed into a ramp and the source was overlayed on top The owner of the 'Man' image will be notified.

Sea Monster

If you have some sort of phobia or disgust for Snakes and Mice, i urge you not to look at my step by step guide because one of my own images is a snake eating a mouse. Two images were my own and the others will be listed.

Off the top of my head

I wanted to show how the native american way of life can be very easily forgotten, so i felt that this was the most appropriate way of doing so.
