:) Figured I would get a rise out of you with that!
You might be mis-interpreting my meaning...what if I had captioned it ...and THEY said "when pigs fly"...well they are flying!
Well, I won't hold it against you as everyone is entitled to their own opinion, b ut I must say I very strongly disagree with you.
 
WOW chris, super.

OK Larry, well that is more understandable. LOL. I will lose the resentment now (which I never had, lol). But I see you are right, the pigs are flying!
 
WOW Chris .....really cool!
I wanted to make something floating in the space as well, and I looked for tutorial how to make fire flames, using filter-render- clouds, then i used the gradient map to make the colors, but I simply burned my result .... :lol:

I want to ask you how you did the rocket flame ?
 
Thank you for your comment Diyana.

I hope this screenshot and the "steam image" will help you to create a flame effect.
1. Adjust the steam image by changing the dimensions to get a long and small flame.
2. Copy/paste this flame image to your background image with the rocket. Make duplicate of this flame layer (layer mode: negative multiply?, sorry I work with german PS).
3. Rotate the layer to match the angle of your rocket.
4. --> Blur filter -->motion blur, (in my screen shot the angle is 40, the distance is 250 pixel). You have to experiment maybe.
5. Add a layer mask and paint with a soft brush to get your final flame shape.

Have fun.
Chris

Very nice ..... lovely fishy birds... :)

Things that can move on ground and water are called Amphibian. but what should be the name for things that can fly and dive ? Except Ducks .... :)

Thank you Chris ...I did what you show me and here is my pink space sofa :)

I used hue/saturation to add some color ....
All images i took from the web ... BG from site called "ythmeven.allaroundgames"
 
Yes that's well implemented Diyana.
Though for a strong effect I would use a larger flame. Your space sofa hovers in space in your composite, as if the kid astronaut is learning to control its flight. It looks very cool like this. A well done job!

Breathtaking. Bravo. Too bad you can't win your own challenge!

You mean... a fird ? Or a birch ? :cool2:
 
Here's SuperMerlyn, flying over San Francisco to keep the Evil Mouse King from taking over!

Stocks are a standard photograph of the skyline of San Francisco (can't remember where I got it) and a prior picture of my kitten Merlyn laying on the rug which you have all seen in another place on the forum. Everything else is drawn or done on the piece.
