This is intended to be a sort of tribute to Giuseppe Arcimboldo (//www.abcgallery.com/A/arcimboldo/arcimboldo.html) whose work I adore. I really wanted to do something more complicated, but the veggies would not cooporate. I tried to give this an oil painting feel. Lemme tell you, it's just gotta be easier with paint!

The figure you created is exceptional and I gave bonus points for the creativity. I think I'd liked to have seen just a bit more light on this, though. He's actually kinda cute... (OK, OK, it's been decades since I've had a date..)
I really loved the face in this one, especially the mouth! I gave this a 7 in voting. It would have been higher except for it being so dark. Though that might have been what you were going for. I really expected this to place higher.
You are starting to rival Raish for the OOB shots. Maybe he's the king and you're the queen. The face is great in this shot. I like the nice dark contrasting background. I really thought this should have scored better.
Heh, very cute and creatively done! Reminds me of some of the works of the italian painter, Giuseppe Arcimboldo 1527- 1593. This little man is made up of all sorts of veggies. My critique lies in the lighting. I appears too dark on my screen. Portions of the Dunce fade into shadow such that some of the outlines of the individual vegetables get lost in the shadows. Either more lighting was needed to better illuminate the vegetable man OR selective editing to either gamma correct or up the brightness/contrast levels.
I saw a painting that looked like this, didn´t want to go through all the trouble building it up, bravo you did it! And really well...hope this places highly..
