Excellent, but I think much stronger shadows are needed (look at the shadow from the kid's hand onto the hay roll). Same shadows are needed on from the kid on the ground, from the hay roll, and from the dog
I see a shadow from the dog going in the same direction as the shadow from the bale of hay. Therefore, to make your picture more realistic, it would improve your lovely piece of work to place a shadow from the boy in the same direction as the shadow on the dog and the roll of hay.
well done overall... got see some shadows
Amazing roll and the boy is very powerful,I like this chop
killed it. perspective is on point as well as funny idea. Congrats.
Cheers slixter, perspective of a rotated design in a non-square field shot from an above angle was tricky but worked well. I eventually found the field using google earth and a quick screengrab. Hard to find a sunny one. Damned if I could find an ariel shot of a crop field for reference WITHOUT a crop circle in it anywhere else online.
Congrats on your first gold trophy Friend .... you keep highing it's nice feeling on gold trophy
Congrats Nerb... Great idea and excellent execution
You used Google earth to get that field source. Technology rules.
Congrats on your first gold, Nerb I especially like how you did the flat wheat texture, and curious on how you did that.
congrats on the gold, many more to come I'm sure
AZ...the flattened wheat texture was "dissolve" airbrush on a new layer selected from an existing one, then I smudged it bit by bit. Then a quick sharpening did the trick. I tried to radial blur it for the round sections but it didn't work. I'm sure there's an easier way but I'm still learning.
