Another month another challenge from ShiftArt.Com . This month it's castles. My son and daughter in law were here for the Christmas holidays. So, I put my son to work as a "model. I also used one of the three kings from the naivety scene for the cape. I originally colored the cape but then changed my mind, and went with the white.

So you went for a large castle Frank! A nice concept and it good to put son in laws to work I think!
I seem to remember that Shift Art supply images for the task and require that you use at least one of them?

I always enjoy these challenges no matter how I fare. The rules are to use a minimum of three images. In this case I used I believe five of their images to come up with this composite.
Since posting this I made a couple of subtle changes. I am never a 100% happy with any of my final composites. I will submit the revised challenge, and hope for the best.

Absolutely beautiful work Frank. My first impression was that the prince was floating, is there any way to firmly ground him?

Thanks Jack. I added the shadow and if you look close you can see it meets at the bottom of the robe. But I will take another look at it again to be sure he is grounded.
