The other day I was thinking about how in The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Eustace tries and fails to peal his scale-y dragon skin off not once, but three times. It's not for lack of trying (three times!), but rather that Eustace literally can't do it. Only Aslan could pierce Eustace's thick skin. Only His might could set Eustace free from his sin. Only Aslan is Enough.
So, with that in mind, I put together this graphic (the quotation used is mine). Comments & criticisms are wonderful!
Like how you made the pictures blend in with the main photo. I like your quote. The only thing I might change is to make the picture of Eustace, next to the transparent picture of Aslan (showing only Eustace's face) be a little more visible, because I didn't really notice it until I looked some more--but you might have planned that, I don't know. Love how the words are positioned, and the font you used for them!

Aww... I love the quote and the figures blended in the background.
For improvements, I would say lightening it. And some of the figures look stretched a bit. You might want to check the screen dimension on your computer. It ca mess up graphics programs sometimes.

That's super cool, I wish the movie saved a little more time for that scene.
I would probably just have the one photo of Eustace on the left hand side to make it less 'busy', instead of two.
Overall, cool!
Very nice graphic!

I really like the concept of this and the images you chose along with the quotation! This is a beautiful moment in the story and this quote embellishes the emotional aspect of it! All the images you chose work great here, I particularly like how Eustace is looking down at himself in the dragon form in the pictures.
The only CC's I might suggest, are that I think that the two left pictures of Eustace are a bit distracting to the other images within the graphic. I think that the largest picture should be moved back to where the second one of Eustace is. If you replaced the front one of Eustace instead of where he is standing and faded it into the background, it would make a nice effect. This is just my take on it, but I still really like how it turned out! Lovely!

Love it! Eustace in the front does look a little stretched out, but besides that I think it's lovely! Great job
Wrong will be right when Aslan comes in sight / At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more / When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death / And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again
Nice graphic Narnian_Badger. Overall design and layout look good. I'm not too sure on the lower left image of Eustace, seems to make the piece a bit crowded. Personally, I pefer the transparent images to push the concept of the piece instead of the forward Eustace image. This allows for the focus to be on the dragon Eustace and main Aslan. In addition, this makes it feel as though the main image of Aslan is speaking the text directly towards the dragon Eustace, all the more effective in my opinion. On another note, text and imagery are a perfect pairing, and your own quotation? A very nice touch. Coloration of the text is great, it's a nice match up to the coloration on dragon Eustace. Nice work .
