MY GOD! Great job! ps. Watched it in high res. 100 %

Extremely

!! But also extremely curious about the sources and hopefully SBS. Stupid question but this robot transformed from what exactly? Temporary conclusion: MASTERpiece

(106 days ago)

Please watch high res. The Actual size is (width 7600 pix - height 13000 pix) Thanks

Would be nice to see those source links...also what object you chose to transform...
Contest goal: Take any image of an object and turn it into a transformer. What object have you transformed?
(106 days ago)

Very cool! But need the SBS to fully appreciate THE TRANSFORMASTER. (Are its calves radiating all the lights?)
(106 days ago)

Holy Moly!

another first place for you i guess. The only thing is, the arms looks a bit short, but on the other hand, who need long arms if they got shooters

great job

BUT: the Source links are needed

(106 days ago)

Super work.

CMYK 46 and Wazowski In Holland we use the word "motorfiets" (zoals je weet) in english it's called a "motorcycle" I used a few motorcycles to create this Transformer combined with Airbrush. I'm not finished with uploading SBS ! more parts will be uploaded and I will try to show the making of this image.

WOW... This is absolutely breathtaking... [put here another 20 WOWs] Please add links to external images used for this masterpiece...
(105 days ago)

Hi mxade ! Thanks for all the Wow's, I did not use any outside source images except the ones I created myself. I never use outside source images (only once as a joke in "Old door" contest, I added a source image of another PST contest as a detail in my entry) I use my own pictures. I have taken nearly 25.000 photo's in 2008 till now, so you can Imagine how happy I am with the digital revolution ! If we would still depend on film reel, it would have been a complete different story. Btw. funny nobody mentioned the bullet holes jet, especially knowing that everybody watches the Master in High res !.

complety stunned..............just amazin work ... love it ...
(105 days ago)

well, i reconized the bulletholes before u tell about,

(105 days ago)

jeez, fantastic shots AND work here, author - whichever method you used.
(105 days ago)

Dont you worry, author. The bullets were already spotted by my eye the first time I stared at my screen for a while (for an impression of that, see my avatar). Again, great job, also for the fact that altough it looks like a mirrored image, you made enough little details/retouching to make the left side of the MASTER different from the right one. Good luck

!

(105 days ago)

really nice!
(105 days ago)

Ha, ik vind hem helemaal geweldig, en nog van en hollander ook

Sluit me helemaal aan bij alle wow opmerkingen van me voorgangers hier, het is echt geweldig gedaan. Ga zeker zo door!! Het is een meesterwerk!!!
(105 days ago)

that's a beauty !
(105 days ago)

this is just wonderful... my mouth is still open wiiiide

(104 days ago)

First things first Great image & well executed excellent creativity!!! & a high vote from me but it also on the other hand in (my opinion) Completely defeats the contest goal “ take any image of an OBJECT and turn it in to a transformer”? Using 22+ images of a least 7 different motorbikes give you a lot more scope as to what you can do! Could this image be created out of one single motorbike image?
I mean no disrespect to author or work!! My point is contest rules are there for a reason

(104 days ago)

Responding to Labyrinth, yes I can do it with a single shot of a motorbike, you are right it would be different but not more difficult, for me it would actualy be easier to create a transformer. I just wanted to create a TRANSFORMASTER, so I made it complex to create the feel of a master, but if it means it is not according to the contest rules, I will withdraw it from the contest, because I certainly don't want to enter the contest knowing its not ok. I'm very sorry for this. I understand your point of view,again, I just wanted to increase the extreem feeling and again, I will withdraw my entry if necessary. It would be a shame, but no problem. Now I still can.

(104 days ago)

Errrmm...author, I would wait with any further possible action. And then, the contest says "any image of an object", not one image. The object is a motorcycle, it's not that you used different kinds of objects (like a motorcycle and a car, plane, etc). So I guess it's how you interpret it. Good luck!
(104 days ago)

Author many thanks for your reply!!!! We all have our own opinions on images if we did not. Then we would not be individual & the world would be a very boring place…… I will still stick to my interpretion of the rules….

But taken in to consideration the time/skill/ comments/ fav/…….the removal of this image would be a unpopular decision……….
(104 days ago)

ok Thanks, and what about the strawberry pie, the oldfashioned cotton underwear, the dozen, out of date, marshmallows and the 9 naked hungry women, I used to create the TRANSFORMASTER, are those a problem ?

by the way, my name is not Author !

(104 days ago)

Author!! The strawberry pie is fine as long as you used real cream not that Synthetic crap,

oldfashioned cotton underwear may be a problem especially if thay are BIG!

Out of date marshmallows I can live with, 9 naked hungry women are you sure there is not 10

But, Way have you not mentioned the one legged stripper & the Elvis Impersonator………

(104 days ago)

haha "may only be viewed in HIGH RES !!!" okay it's enough the normal size you take high score!! Great robot

Earphone Androids - created by hyperorbit

High Resolution

final rank: 4 out of 10 (final score: 61.9 %)

The earphones (now available in wireless) transform into an android performer who will play music as well as dance to entertain you and your friends!

This one is an expert at the Macarena, and does a fine impersonation of Bjork.
