Meet CiCi pictures - In this Apprentice Contest you are asked to photoshop this lovely image of CiCi by dressing her up. CiCi belongs to raygregory. (Or raygregory belongs to CiCi?). Currently this cute little pooch is getting ready
to take her bath in the sink, but rather than bathing, she is daydreaming of one day being able to dress up and be heroic. She dreams of putting on her fire gear and fighting fires, donning her flack jacket and fighting crime, and sometimes shrugging her secret identity and leaping tall buildings in her superhero costume. Today, we are going to make CiCi's dreams come true. You are asked to dress up CiCi in any way you like. You will have 3 days to submit your entry. Submitting it early will give you plenty of time to read the critique comments and edit your image accordingly. Typical FreakingNews entry guidelines also apply. You can find them here.
Thanks to raygregory for sponsoring this double jackpot contest and providing us with a nice model.

Ciciolina pictures - / This is very nice. I just find the background behind the top of her head distracting, something simpler and plainer would help us focus on Cici herself. / Head's attached very well. A nice touch would have been to cut the sleeves short and have Cici's little Dachhund paws sticking out. cici's undercarriage is looking much more wrinkly than usual here. / If you moved her up a bit - that line would not sit on top of her head. The dark line on her chest looks a bit like open heart surgery. Soften. Good job .... / pretty Ciciolina, look so nice, nice execution
CiCi Dog pictures - The Dynamic Duo. thanks, it's edited now. / That's why I always wanted to have a dog when I was a kid... / Cute entry. Onli improvement i can imagine is to put some brighter highlights on Cici's head and arms. / hahaha haha ha ha ha ha, this is so funny also kind realistic for those who do not know photoshop. well done / very nice compostion but you may add some lighting effect on the left side face / this is the dress-up that's really fit CICI. nice source of picture. / thanks everyone for the kinds word and suggestion. THANKS NEWSMASTER.
Super CiCi pictures - CiCi always dreamed of being a superhero, and now her dream has finally come true. She saves the day and still has time to hang out with raygregory. P.S. Was I supposed to tell of her secret identity. Have no fear, Super CiCi is here. / ha ha ha, this is so funny and well done Maybe this would look better with dog paws and not with hands, but this is kust my opinion, if u would do it save as your file with another name to keep your original... u never knows . Great chop. / Stylish. I've never seen Cici looking so leggy and slinky. And if she did have b00bs, there'd be more than two. / Very cute and well done. She deserves a medal.
CiCi and Ray pictures - Cici and Ray---A match made in heaven. (There's someone for everyone.) / nice picture. my suggestion is this, maybe if you make her skin like a real dog (cici) skin this will standout more, but you can remain her dress that's the kill their. / Cici and rayray, what a cute red neck couple. / this is so nice, but i would like to see more blend on skin tones, a darker body. Nice integration of head.
CiCi visiting Versailles pictures - When in Versailles do as the French do... / ha ha ha this is so nice, nice integration / Your masking is very good on CiCi. I might try getting a little closer on the outer edges of the dress. There seems to be a dark ring (about 1 pixel) around it. Light & shadows look great. Nice job. / next time to kep your identity in secret as any question in private or ask at the entry's comment when u edit the entry . u can also flag your own comment, so admins will remove it . And yes, now look better
Super Dog CiCi pictures - ARGGH. / Nicely done but i think you should move the dog down or back some because in the full image, it doesnt look like CiCis paws are toughing the cement. / Great job. Just remove the shadow under the paws of the CiCi and the black rectangle on the bottom of the picture. Wish u success. / Cici kinda disappears here.. which is a shame.. just the legs and Cici would have had more impact. Well done tho ... / the idea is their, but i think you should more focus on CICI 'cause she is the theme contest.
Hot dog CiCi pictures - dog showing off / nicely done, but the arm and legs look a little fake. / Looks like person with a very small dog's head...also, you could try to match the "cici" text better. / kibuyu is right with his observation. but the idea is good.
Madam Cici pictures - / I love how look her paw over her dress , i don't know why head look kind washed it will be easy to fix with some sharp at it. A soft shadow under the paw will be nice. Overall this is well done. / The head looks a bit compressed. Did you narow it to fit the garment and not the other way around. Also, you might have sgtretched the legs a bit too far. Cici is a Dachshund. / OK, except the squished head. If you do that to heads and faces it almost never looks right / Reminds me of the Man-Ray pics. Very well done - Love it. Just her left paw is a bit off.. but otherwise a great job.
General CiCi pictures - Attention. Eyes front. / Very nice entry, well done, maybe jus a lil big head. But i'm confortable at this. Well done.
Dyslexic Cici -dinner and ballet date pictures - Cici blows her first date with Fang / I'm missing the dyslexic reference...but I'm pretty dense. / Ballet dance - Belly dance....dyslexics get words and spelling mixed up. Thanks guys...
