Junko and Taffy noticed that my placement of the feet of the elephant in recent post didn't work well, so here is another go at it. At the very least I'm learning a lot!
great job with the feet - they are always the most difficult part - the connection with the ground' is the key to getting it 'believable'. Jai does hers with a large soft mask & thats why she usually has a darker baseline or grass like here. Getting some overlap between the elements really does help to get the composite to blend nicely.
