If it wasn't for the wings, that kind of give it away, you would be forgiven for thinking these images are real. 

Hey, Freddy. Every once in a while I will be getting assignments in my Photoshop class where I am to post work from other graphic artists to a blog devoted to the class (you can find it at http://gccdave.blogspot.com ), and I was wondering if you had any objections to my posting some of your work, should I get the opportunity. Frankly, I should have thought about it for my last assignment, but...

Thanks. There were a couple of pieces that I had some minor issues with (as you can see from the blog), and my critiquing them wasn't really part of the assignment, but the instructor was very impressed with my choice to do so, and told me that she would probably include requiring such a critique in future assignments. It's nice to not only get a good grade on an assignment, but when the teacher seriously considers expanding future ones based on what was turned is is quite a rush!
