I got this idea from a post I saw somewhere, where a guy created a UFO attack by cutting and pasting, plus lots of filtering and colour adjustsments.

I started with the pastoral setting with a country road. Added (cut and paste) of an image of a flying saucer I took while watching the History Channel's show on UFO's (how convenient is that?). The gill man is a brush created from the 50's horror classic "Creature from the Black Lagoon."

Just found out you can't use artistic brushes. Thought I'd post this so others wouldn't get DQed for SciFi.
