Sweet! Love the color pallet you used here. The green glow is spectacular! This is something straight from Flash Gordon, that guy in the middle must be MIng the Merciless creating a bride!

Incredible.

The only thing that kind of bothers me is the darkness of the male model,especially the robe, and also the fact that he is not the same quality as the other images. My eye goes directly to him before focusing on the rest of the composite, and he just doesn't seem to fit in.

Really nice work on the objects you made!

BTW, did you do this on the inside or the outside? :mrgreen:

Thanks everyone... I can see why they call you the Queen... I never notice that about the man until you pointed out, Guess I was to tied up replicating our lab here in the tower whilst I was outside, and not enough on the man, guess I'll be put back in now, just when I thought I had made a clean break. oh well hung up once more making it look like weed on water colours again . I must get use to holding the brush in me mouth whilst hanging up side down, just can't seem to get that right even after all this time.

My be i should paint the scene as I see it , then turn it the right way up when they let me down, wonder if that will make a difference ?... probably not in my case ... they keep telling me I'm past the point of no return. I did wonder that myself since I went to work on a days holiday, i thought " how come there's nothing book for me today ?". so went to our office and team up with another worker and went to his job... then the phone call came.. " your on holiday you bone head ". oops..., just forgot which day i was day release.

Thanks again everyone.

Took around 12 to 14 hrs to do on and off over a weekend... not very quick at doing stuff in Photoshop...

Never thought of it as a Flash Gordon or Wizard of OZ type image but I like that.

I should get use to the short cut keys... but when your use to doing something , that's the way you stay, when I first started using Photoshop I only had a mouse, was concentrating on the software and how to use it rather than the short cut keys, so keep things as they are.

This is the same now I have a tablet, was using the pen in Photoshop learning how to use it with the tablet, but not learning the button on the side of the pen or the tablet it'self. Must get round to doing these shot cut keys , will help in time taken to do stuff.

thanks again everyone.
