Description This image had me going batty for two days. First the horizon wouldn't work and then I couldn't get it to look "together"... nevertheless, thanks to some critique from *Windcharmer and my taking her turtle into custody (), it's here.

I couldn't help it. It's like the sea version of Milo and Otis.

It's all about the turtle. The turtle makes it. The turtle rules. Thank you, hun, I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

nice job! if you want horizon to look betta i think just mkae that black line thinner.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

forever-simplicity In reply to viliusm [2006-11-22 19:40:12 +0000 UTC]

I'll give that a go. There's actually a very thin black line on soft light to emphasise the horizon, so I'll give that a tweak and see what happens.

Thank you!

Razarelie [2006-11-22 11:15:44 +0000 UTC]

Looks great, probably the best you have done so far, probably the only things I could say would be to play with the horizon a bit more so that there is a longer gradient in the clouds to make it more natural, maybe a gradient overlay with some soft light touchups, and the star fishies look a bit light as if they are on top of the water. But honeslty, it looks brilliant, the colours are amazing and rich, and its a pleasure to look at

forever-simplicity In reply to Razarelie [2006-11-22 19:29:19 +0000 UTC]

Thank you Rhys. I'm really glad you like it, I enjoyed making this one (when it wasn't driving me batty :giggle).

I'll work on the gradient... a sharp black to transparent will probably do to give it some depth... and I'll darken my starfishies while I'm at it to stop them being so distracting. I might do some light rays onto the water too.

But yea, again, thank you.
