Galactus arrives

On another forum people started to do Photoshop images for fun and I got the idea to take the Bowen Galactus and put it in a scene. Here are the results.


This image ended up on Aint-it-cool news after I sent it to them for fun. http://www.aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=22514

This is the full image before cropped. Yes Galactus arrives over Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, haha... I started with one of my photos taken on a trip there. If I knew I was going to go so far with it I would have started with a New York photo.



Anyway this is my first post here so I hope you enjoy

I'm glad you guys are liking it. I tried to make it look as though you were seeing a random still shot from a movie. So I put Silver Surfer not in the most visible spot and blurred him out to make it feel like he's going by fast. I also wanted to make sure you could tell Galactus was behind some of the buildings and Surfer was in front, for scale. I added the explosion on hte building just so there would be somthing crossing Galactus' foot to put him in the background. I also dropped the saturation a lot on Galactus to make him fit into the photo lighting better.
