Photoshop contest - bicycle tire

High Resolution

Well, I also attempted to make something different of this inspiring bicycle tyre.
Comments welcomed, especially the critical ones.

wOw, great use of source. very well done! the only thing is, your flowers looks more like seagrass. The picture looks more like a underwater scenery. may another backround could fix that. Or u keep that underwater feeling and do some bubbles in it to create a new kind of species "underwater butterflies". And may a few lightrays .

Very cool idea and well done. But I would make the butterflies the center of attention by making the background less distracting/ less colorful. I like step 2 more than the final result. very good job though.

i like it cuz it's different... did you used a brush to create the butterflies, or pictures? or did you draw them yourself? i get the feeling of this being underwater...

the idea is good, i just feel you go a little lazy with the layering... especially around the shield, and the legs...

First time trying to make something using the warp tool. Was fun a learning experience. It's a interesting tool.

CMYK 46 [lvl 20] [vp 1000] [ 44]:

Segments need blending, snake needs more highlights & shadows. And it's floating in mid air...

yea neat idea, but definatley needs some work

chilldown [lvl 12] [vp 399] [ 13]:

had the same idea doing a snake out of the source. good that i thought someone else doing this! otherwise i would be angry now.

Worked on blending the pieces together a little more.

Labyrinth [lvl 15] [vp 1000] [ 56]:

Needs more highlights & shadows to give the snake a bit if depth as still a bit flat at the moment, There are a few tools you can use Dodge & Burn , inner shadow, Air brush if you want a bit more freedom……

Labyrinth [lvl 15] [vp 1000] [ 56]:

Is getting better your going to have to go darker & more in to the center of the body there maybe some tutorials on here for you to take a look at…… or take a look at my work may give you an idea of what you need to do………
