Digital Art When The Rain Stops

Another photo-manip~

I worked on for about 45 minutes, not really proud of it. But why am I posting it? I need good hard CnC on this this 'cause I NEEEEEEDDDD to get better.

When The Rain Stops

 

First of all, Umbrella looks a little choppy to me. Feather that up or something. Give her a very small shadow to make it more realistic, and tone down the green in the grass a bit. NO ONE'S grass is that green.

I'm not really good with Photomanips, lol, so I did my best. Danger Mouse is really great with them, so maybe ask him...?

 

Post original pic plz.

 

There are links in the description on DA.

 

oops I overlooked that.....
will edit thiszzz pozt.
EDIT:
Nice job.
I would darken a few select parts a little more, but it is pretty good.

 

Thanks lots~

Lolz, it's meant to be non-realistic @ grass

But yeah, I'll try and do the shadow... 'cause that's a good idea << >>

 

If I were to make a suggestion, I think you make the cloud on the upper left blend in because it really doesn't seem okay. But it's only a suggestion, you don't have to

oh and BTW, very nice

 

I think it looks like everything is made of plastic. Hahaha, no offense in that comment meant. I think it's cute like that. But it's a bit non realistic.
