    I'm actually enjoying this manip stuff

    [​IMG]

    The idea came when I saw a picture of a truck with a ton of smoke coming out of it. I got the idea of pollution, so I searched air pollution on google and got this image: http://www.magazine.noaa.gov/stories/image...ower-plant2.jpg. That picture branched off into a bunch of different ideas and ended up with a bubble being the worlds lifesaver to pollution :lol:

    I think it looks great :D if you wanna try something I suggest darkening, like kirbir said, but maybe increasing the saturation as well, I think its cool as is though ^_^

    discharged those are cool, i love the third one :D

    manahan the serial killer one is cool, hints on the minor things u added! i've been looking for like an hour and I still can't figure it out, its... killing me lol
    also the GTA one is very well put together, cool stuff :D

    fallen, i agree with manahan, but just to add I think it may look cool in color, or did you do it all b/w ?
