January 05, 2012 10:51am Good cut outs, just remember everything has a shadow. I can see a slight shadow on the model, but none for the tiger or the chain. It looks more believable if you create tonal variations on objects you cut out because you lose the cast shadows. You should also consider where the light is coming from in your cut outs before you use them.
Your subjects sort of look like they're floating. A good way to hide that is to use your dodging tool at the feet to add that slight shadow to connect your cut outs to the background. You do a good job cutting out the images, so just focus on blending all your images together.
Hope I helped and didn't offend you with my constructive criticism.
