Amirikle1 [lvl 1] [vp 0] [vote medals 14]:
avatar Amirikle1 It really is a good idea and if it were not floating it would be well executed.
I'm just curious as to why and what makes it so enduring. What makes it
better than the entry flower vase? it only got 3 comments but it, too, is a
good idea and is very well executed. Sometimes it is nice to know what qualities ppl are looking for. since these 2 entries are so close I just had to ask and since this one has the most comments I put it here. If you can think of any other quality please pm me. and thanks to all who pm me

thoughtstorms [lvl 10] [vp 422] [vote medals 11]:
avatar thoughtstorms This reminds me of a favourite Far Side cartoon where one goldfish is about to plug in some electric appliance, and his friend says "Carl! You idiot! Don't plug that in!" This was very well done indeed. Finding the right images for this one had to have taken a lot of work! Great chop!

7-steps guide for Something Fishy:

Entry guide: step 1 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 1

All original authors of the pictures have been notified of the use of their work.
I masked out the fisbowl with quickmask and copy pasted it on the lamp source that i had turned upside down first.


Entry guide: step 2 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 2

I warped the fishbowl in the right shape and after messign arround with the top part of the fishbowl for a while, i simply decided to get rid of it.


Entry guide: step 3 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 3

After I removed the top part of the bowl I used smudge with small strokes to smudge the rest of the bowl all the way up stroke by stroke and covered up with that the last few parts of the plants in the water too..


Entry guide: step 4 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 4

I rounded off the top part of the fishbowl and smudged a light spot on top out to create a water border. I duplicated the top part with that water border and flipped it vertically. I set the opacity of that layer low and blended it in with the rest of the lamp source before i merged that down to one layer.


Entry guide: step 5 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 5

I masked out the goldfish with quickmask and copy pasted it in the lamp source I erased a few of the dark outlines that I accidentally didnt lost with the masking. blurred the edges of the goldfish and smudged a few things here and there to make it more realistic again.


Entry guide: step 6 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 6

I duplicated the background layer with the lamp and put it on top. i put its opacity to 46%


Entry guide: step 7 of 7

Creation of Something Fishy: Step 7

I smudged the light reflections a little bit on the top source of the lamp that was put to opacity 46% till they looked more realistic with all those things in the water. To finalize my work i blurred some edges and smudged the edges a little where needed and changed the opacity ofsome of the sources just a little bit .


final result
