Mine didn’t quite work out but something else arose from the ashes ….. er ….. so to speak.

I think he’s miffed about something.

Re: Challenge 974: Heavy metal
Loyd two boys watching TV--very well done! David wow "War of the Worlds" type effect here--the potential to develop this theme is very tempting, but I'm a gonna at the moment.

Dennis, Your entry (in my opinion) is the very best so far. it's fantastic: I love it: it delivers!

Wonderful entries this week.

Loyd, I could be wrong but I think there's a golden opportunity here to make the moose shine. Let's see his prowess when he's up against the gorilla and or the dragon

This is terrific Dennis. I think it's a teeny bit of a shame that you have applied the same colouring and effects to both dragon and sky. The sky tends to dominate him. I love to see him 'pop' a little bit more.

Thank you. The bottom half is actually a shuttle take off at Cape Canaveral.

I love way you have played on "Royal Dragon", that a real leap of imagination!

Re: Challenge 974: Heavy metal
Thank you, Michael and David. The HD version is very pleasing. Unfortunately, with the lower dpi, the definition and clarity is lost. Hope you recover soon Michael. Sorry but your flu gave me the idea for this image.

This is so simple and so good!

The re-arrangement of the steel gorilla is beautifully done. I tried without success.

The idea of doing this as the view from the cockpit is just spot on. And the rippling through the canopy a perfect touch.

I find this really satisfying.

Oh wow! Lots of flames an' orange this week!

Great volcanic environment you've created Frank. I love the green eyes and what just might be a member of the Targaryen clan in the background ...............
