funny and photo-real. anytimes fantasy.

not use particular brushes or filters. if you find a correct combination of colour and of shadows/lights the img become magic

In your opinion what makes a good chop?
One idea, good execution, funny pic.

nope.

Have you ever completed a chop and then decided not to enter it in the contest? If so, why?
yes, sometimes it happens. sometimes after hours on work. but if the result is not good i prefer not publish.

After you finish your chop do you just post it or seek opinions of family and/or fellow choppers first?
sometimes. there may be good advice

If some one finds a fault in your work do you change it or stay with what you posted?
i rarely reposted.

What qualities do you look for when deciding to vote on a chop?
1. the execution. 2. the likely time of work 3. what transmits

Some member prefer not to vote for filtered chops or animations. Is there any particular style/type of chop you won't vote for?
nope. this is art. if i like vote, then not vote.

Time is always a factor, how much time do you spend on a chop and how much time is too much?
average 15-30 min. time max 1h. over 1h or you're desperate or you take the chop too seriously.
