    nice image natsia, but one thing that kinda catches my attention is the bottom of the picture, the dress is a little too blurry for me. But thats all, excellent blending on the image!

    its a little too blury all round... just couldnt get my "paper" layer and the image itself to blend nicely.
    ... Typically I gave up and posted it out of sheer frustration.
    Thanks for the comment.

    This is different than your normal style Nats. I like it. The blurriness gives it a glamor shot look and feel. Is she missing a wing?

    5 shots sounds great.
    What kind of time frame are we looking at?

    Extricate, now is your chance to slam me

    *edit I just checked out your stock and you did a really good job with the manip of the girl.

    Bleh... No rush for turn around.
    Whenever you get a chance, lets just keep it reasonable. Week maybe?

    Thanks for the kind comment, yes she is missing a wing, angle of this pic is a little off.

    Yeah. yeah. yeah. I know we said take our time, but I got inspired. I only added one stock as a Texture, which is barely visible. But I loved your image and played and played with it till I got the below. The wings to the sides are a photo i have personally. If you want it let me know.
    Hope you likes.

    Actually thats pretty cool.
    I like the fact that you used elements again in the background of this image, gives it a lot of depth.
    Plus the way you softened the foreground, her body & dress: you've completely enhanced the "soft & romantic" atmosphere.
    I'm seeing a bird in there? Am I going nuts?

    I'll get working on a return tomorrow. Feeling a little under the weather: gonna get some sleep for a change.

    I used the wings a lot and did some vector in illustrator, but other than the stock I linked to, your image, the wing image, and the vector work There isn't anything else. The girls face may be playing with your eyes, it is repeated at 2,4,7and 10 o'clock and faded back with layer modes. I like how it kinda looks like she is going from a laying position in bed to sitting up with sheets over her. And normally I don't like to much texturing but it seemed to work here.

    Ohhh ... me likey. Kind of reminicent of earlier PST matches I'd see where the same starting image carried on throughout with different enhancements along the way. More a collaborative effort to attain the final result than a series of totally different images.

    Nice work!

    I would send you the psd but its 32mb which is surpisingly not that bad. I would say all together there is about 40 - 45 layers worth of work in there. I love how you can't tell that from just looking at it.

    Clicky you're right. Forgot about the old school way of doing it.

    Once upon a time, long long ago, there was a prince. Now this prince waited patiently for a princess that possessed the skills to defeat his Photoshop loving heart. But, alas he waited and waited until one day an offer was put forth by an evil witch disguised as a beautiful Photoshop princess.


    Now let's see if that evil witch can have her heart melted and return a image that will smack down the prince, or more like frog waiting to be kissed in hopes of being a prince however unlikely that may be

    You know i'm just messing around. Take your time.

    No problem. We said a slower paced battle and that what this will be. I love how my story just happened to match your image Great minds think alike. I'll put something up asap. I'm thinking something Roger Rabbitish Fun stuff. Gotta ask though, What exactly is she doing with her hand. That arm seems to look odd to me for some reason. Also maybe a bit of glow on her face from the fairies. I like the head swap you did btw.

    She's feeling herself sad about the wing on the huge window sill.
    (your image is repeated 2 times in that one +little elements here and there.)

    Sorry I pulled these stocks a while ago for something else so I can't give sources.
    Hope you enjoy the image though.
