That's awesome, it looks really natural and real. I also really liked the piano one.

Sorry for asking Stickly but that's a really dark portion of the picture. Mind elaborating whatcha mean?

Also I noticed that I messed up on the portion of the picture with the building. The moon is behind it, thus the side facing us shouldn't be that light.

Much better. Actually gives the picture a darker feel. Me likey.

Also just got $100 making this little piece of album art for a friend of mine.


You got $100 for that? Seriously?

dude. where do you find these deals, that looks like 5 minutes worth of work haha

Nice editing on that last photo though, looks very nice.

Dude you'd be surprised how much money people pay for graphics. It's the face value of their appearance. Also the $100 included that piano artwork I did for him as well.


Also heads up, tossing this next pic in a spoiler since there's enough large imagery on this page:

I was just saying, if you looked at it very closely, that side of the picture has a lot of unnatural light coming from the edges of the leaves and trees. thats all :)

You did a pretty good job on making it look late on that picture, but the lighting feels a bit synthetic. The moon would cast a white light rather than the blue you chose to use. Also, in the upper right corner the blending of the trees seems extremely awkward, and the clouds look a lot brighter then they should be compared to the rest of the picture. You could also try putting some soft gradients that fade to dark away from the moon to further exaggerate the effects. Just play around with blend modes and see if it fits.

Thanks for giving me a heads up about the corners. I plan on fixing those.

As for the general blue and synthetic lighting, I aimed for this to be more of an appealing picture rather than a realistic one. Despite the fact that the main purpose was for a realistic transformation, I decided it would just look better.
