Title: Lost Santa
Name: John Wallin Liberto
Country: Sweden
Software: Photoshop

Hello!

I thought I'd try to post this again, it was rejected last time because I probably made a mistake :)

Christmas is over but maybe this one is interesting anyway. It was painted for a NOKIA N 95 commercial, santa is lost, because he doesn't own an N95 with build int GPS, so now he's in a tight spot and about to be taken care of by the trolls.

the image was printed on a 5 m canvas on subway stations etc. some photo elements were added but is mostly hand painted in photoshop CS2

Cheers!

Outstanding work on every little detail of the image - lighting, colours, textures. Wonderful body language and expression of Santa. And the concept of the trolls is cool and funny.
Cheers!
