Wow - way cool. They both came out great and went in such different directions! Great job.

Sorry I missed this one

I'll be away for the next one --- more

I was first in #1 and added the dragonfly. It was an EPS that I imported from Illustrator and colorized in Photoshop. I too, particularly like Toad's addition of the hallway and distorting the len's dragonfly. But, you know, the Blue guy was a very important element to making that first image.

On the second image I was fourth and was rather heavy handed, I'm afraid. It just seemed to be a natural scene developing and I thought it needed an outdoor background. The picture came from an older Corel Photo CD of Western Canada and I added the orange moth just for color balance.

This is great fun.

Welles, I love the outdoor background you added to the second one! It really "sets the scene"!

I got to play in both groups I love how both of these came out. I also love how everyone made bold moves on both of them, it really propelled them into different worlds.

Group 1: I added the blue man and hand. I started out with normal skin color then stumbled on the idea of using the dragonfly colors and doing a subtle dragonfly wing on the blue guys cheek.

Group 2: I was after the bird and the cat (both very cool). I added the worm, moved the cats eyes to look at the bird, added a reflection of the bird, added a reflection of an eye behind the bird, and added a subtle background. I loved the idea of the different layers that come from the cat watching and the bird safe - but the worm not - all being watched by a mysterios person ... anyway, you get the idea.

Congratulations to all. These both rock!
