#2, i really like the pentooling (IF it's pentooling) and it just stood out the most. oh and second. oh and that guitar effect is cool, tho it prolly came with the render. i feel like i can get smacked by that guitar at any time.

Expertee is right, trust him.

Anyways, my vote was between #7,#8, and #9. Imo #9 had good effects and depth but the lighting was off and the composition was not strong enough. #8 had good depth and composition but it was too messy and the lighting was off. #7 had a good composition, nice effects though the lighting was off. It was a difficult choice but my vote goes to #7 .

Oh its up already . Well some really nice entries this time around, but my vote will go for Number 4. Just a beautiful stock merge, and I love how the background stock was used. I would have never thought of combining those pictures. Very Nice typography also.

#1 know who did it like it a lot remember to work with the different blending modes to give it some life and depth lastly sharpen at the end the person knows what i mean

#2 honestly i like it nice usage of the brushes but in many cases to simply i think the render stands out more then anything else

#3 nice work good usage of the clipping mask but needs some clean up got some pixaleted white spots that kind of ruin the focal point

#4 good job the bg could use some more work and i dont feel the render is blending in well could use some work and lastly the text could be better

#5 nice job doing the tut i think really well done however lighting could be better and the same for the text it hard to see

#6 well can't really cnc it some might know why

#7 very nice smudging is really nice and the same for the colors it has a lot of flow

#8 i like this entry has a lot of depth and lighting too

#9 have a good idea who mad this nice work with the c4ds and lighting really nice but the bg seems plain

#10 nice i feel the light source could be place somewhere else it blocks the focal point

#11 good work had a lot of potential hair is kind of pixaleted and could use some work and also has a lot of empty space which makes the sig not noticable

#12 nice i feel the lighting is too overpowering and takes away from the main attration and some blending changes as well

#13 good work simply but could use some life in it text needs some work too

Well thats my cnc for everyone my vote goes to 8 depth and lighting fit together different from what i usually see some spots were pixalted but not to bad

Everyone did a very nice job i hope i didn't sound to strick just want all of you to improve keep up the work everyone looking forward to more of your work
