@Chantal-Goetheer @kirsten-mcg & @Frogpunzel
Thanks for the advice!
Adding the bit of wall on the manger scene really helps. I also lowered the arch a little.
I tried adding a glow like it’s coming from the star, but it didn’t look right because there’s a gap of sky in between. I’d have to move the star over for it to work, but I like having the star right above the manger.
So I tried adding a moon for the wisemen, plus a little glow on the town & I like it.
You guys were right, it is better for the shepherds to be fully silhouette to match the other frames. I also added glow on the town to match the wisemen image.
Now I just need to lighten up the layers with a textured mask & try to keep the same glow effects.
@Frogpunzel It would be great to see your version of a Nativity.

@Miriam This turned out beautiful! I like that all three images have something glowing in the sky. And the shepherds look great as silhouettes.

@Miriam Very nice
Meant to chime in earlier... love seeing how things unfolded for you -

So, it turns out that it looked VERY different printed out & was much too dark overall, and the glow pretty much erased the star / angel.
Fortunately, I had everything on separate layers, & was able to recolor each one & adjust a few things.
