great conceptual work everyone. I really love that CE. Excellent work on the background mountains as well as the sky. "RAM Tough"! Bet you could sell that to Dodge.

Seriously CE. Submit it to them and see what they will do. That would make a hell of a commercial

OK Missy, I got to ask you, what exactly was the black and white? Just the scales? or the "babe" because if the babe was originally B&W and you colored her then I demand a tutorial on how you did it!

Ya, I've done that a few times. In photoshop you can set the image to multiply and you can paint layers under it ATNO/TW. Maybe a new kind of competition? Never done anything that detailed though.

This is an area i'd like to get more into. Very impressive work. Not to be picky, i still sort of fail to see the astrological sign though. I mean, yeah you've got the picture of the libra and the word Libra.

Maybe i'm just being too picky?

I'm new to this forum sorry. Maybe I just misunderstood the whole astrological sign theme thing. None the less I just thought it'd be fun to participate. I didn't really expect to win.

Oh, please don't take this as me criticising your entry. I personally have the problem because i'm just not seeing it. I might also add that it's 5 minutes to 5 in the morning and i've not slept, so i'm sort of being cranky i think too.

If we were to talk about digital art, then by far yours is very very good. To make an image go from B&W to colour is pretty impressive and worthy of entering.

Welcome to the site. Don't let my crankyness deter you from what is actually a really good site full of decent and useful members.

I was just going to say, I'm totally impressed, missy. I've never seen that kind of quality colorization of a b&w photo done so well. Very nice attention to detail.
