Nice concept mate...

Elements are nicely layout and blended. The dead terminator with the arrow need a hard shadow directly underneath, this will prevent element levitation lol.

Great effort.
 
just a heads up matey, there's a few white areas around the woman's skirt, and a bit of an edge on her
 
Great combination of elements. Those are some good stocks. Where is the tower from? Is it a real building?

One hint for future postings, we like to credit artists and photographers for their contribution; for eg: the model -- if there is a credit.
 
Thanks Clare

Would love to give credit to the Photographer/Model but don't know who to thank :) will keep that in mind next time, cheers for that.

P.S. Zeealex just answered your question about the tower!!

If that character was hunting me down, I'd be tempted to shout "I'm over here.."

Classic SPWA me too

Really cool image. All the elements work well with each other.

Avery nice composite. Needs a few minor tweaks here and there. The earlier mentioned shadow and for me, some blending of the buildings to the right. Also the cloud layer is not proportional, I think it would look much better if you would have left the cloud layer in it's original proportion but transformed it down in size. (that may be hard to understand)


Proportional clouds

Not proportional clouds (even though it seems to look OK)

Hi IamSam
Redone the clouds and fixed up the blending on the right and the shadow for the robot, only learning so I really appreciate your input as with everybody's input hear. :cheesygrin:

On another note I'd like to say thanks to the model whomever she may be :thumbsup:
 
Gedstar, thanks for the note on the building. Very sci fi design!

I should have added this earlier. In addition to the shadow as Inkz mentioned, look to the model. It is a dark image, but she lacks a shadow and so she looks ungrounded. Shadows can be difficult, though once you work with them awhile, most are pretty simple to make. But without them, the picture is unfinished. I see this all the time on deviant arts. It can spoil a lovely composition since it leaves it incomplete. Even if an object is floating, it will cast a shadow, though it may be a small one depending on whether the light is strongly focused or diffused.
 
Hi Clare

I did apply a slight shadow to the feet of the girl image, maybe not quite enough, will try to work on this a bit better.
Still learning and as they say in Tesco "Every Little Helps" :bustagut:

Cheers for that

Ged

Hi Ged. I didn't see that you posted an update version in your first post. Just found it now. The shadows are much better. Sorry, I was waiting for you to post it in between the other posts, if you know what I mean - not elucidating very well today!

(I've got post-it inundation)
 
Hi Clare
No worries at all, glad you found it. I'm the same as you sometimes, although had to look up "elucidating" on Google. :bustagut:
As for "post-it inundation" sorry Google didn't return anything :cheesygrin:
