ok ok I know I submitted this and beleive me the picture that i am submitting to fix my picture is something I would really really do. lol
Ok so first thing I did was to find a picture of Godzilla. Traced around with lasso tool set edge seeker and 1 feather. Copied, pasted as a new layer. I wanted him to look a little 3-d so I added a drop shadow. Next I used the lasso tool and made a selction on the bridge where I wanted Zilla to be underneath. Copied and pasted as a new layer and put that off to the side. Did the same with the steam. Zilla edges werent quite so smooth (ok and stilla rent) took the smudge tool and tried to smooth them out.
Now I selected the layer with ol Godzilla and moved him into a spot where i thought it would look if he were realy coming over the bridge. Selected the bridge layer and moved that over him and aligned the edges. Chose the smoke layer and put that into place. Merged layers.
duplicted layer and cloned some smoke so it looked like it was coming around his mouth. Traced around an airplane pic witht he same setting witht he lasso tool. Copied and pasted as a new layer and placed where I liked it.
It still looke da little blah so i thought a goofy cow would accent this realistic setting. Same steps as above including the drop shadow. Merged all layers. Buned ol Godzilla a little bit cause he was looking to bright and shiny and oh yea painted him a red eye

what would you do
