I like the way you put together the sources to form the space freighter and the alien head. High Resolution is wonderful....crisp and detailed, my respects, author..... Good luck....

Very complex... the end scene looks great! Nice use of different sources.

Great concept!

Congrats for the 1st place

congrats! nice one!

Ahh, memories..

What joy, what fun ... what a special guy!

congrats on first...

Cute with more three-dimensional personality than your model/inspiration. However, the skin splotches on the face are too symmetrical [apparently a simple mirror image] for me, plus the background is kind of boring.

Congrats Rein lovely work

Congrats for your first place, Rein!

good work author...best of luck

This is great! We are huge marvel comic fans in my house, and I have to say, this is definitly my favorite in the contest! My six year old wants me to pass along good luck from him too! he's a fan!

What a cool technique! I think his face could have just a little bit of the sand texture, very light, and a little less on his right shoulder to complete the windblown effect, but overall a great use of the source, very clever.

The sand blowing off the figure looks excellent.. really well created. Great job.

Fabulous.., good luck to you author..,

it is very good to me ,good luck

Nice much better... GL Author

Didn't see the previous version, but this one's lookin' good!

There's a cut out edge around the guy, which makes him look too flat, but I really like the concept and the execution on the sand.

Congrats for third place !

I think the noise on the background is not necessary, very good blending on the man!

Congrats...

It's good... but there is a few problems with the high res IMO...

I'd loose the noise in the back ground... I understand the sand flying around... but there's none in the foreground so it's only half realised...

I think the edges could be darkened up a little... and where the sand is blowing off him... it looks good on the smaller pic but o high res it just looks like streaks on the BG... so some sand 'on' his fingers ... maybe only some are formed??... It just needs to look as though it's breaking away from the sandman...

congrats

Congrats on your third place..... nice image.

congrats

Congratulations ... bravo on a wonderful image!

Congrats on third place!

Congrats for your third place, Rein!

Very very good work author...best of luck

I like how his mouth is open, he looks full of energy on this beautiful full moon night.

very beautiful entry .........

So beautiful and so dreamy!

so very handsome

Lovely work. Difficult to get the proportion correct when changing it like this. Bravo! It is a really lovely image. The horse has such a regal and elegant look to it now!

Nice work -- edges of the horse and especially the grass seem a bit to sharp and smooth -- maybe a bit of blur on the horse and some blades of grass sticking out

Edit Nice work on the changes - like to be thought of as having useful suggestions for improvements -- its the Canadian way LOL

Congrats!

Not bad..... congrats for your fifth place...it was hard to compete with the best...but guess what....I am happy that my OXY, got a fourth...!

very neat clean work...good luck author

nice !!

Great combination of elements, and very nice work, in spite of (or because of) that mush.... um, story. I remember seeing a sailboat named Quetzlcoatl.

Perfect blend, clean and crisp image as always..... well done & GL

Love the whole concept of this. The story and the mood is wonderful! Very excellent work ... as usual!!! My fav!
