thanks everyone , great bunch of people here.

Fantastic work. Great talent shown here!

excellent art.!!!

Great work my friend, I like the curve on the flag that fits to the moon shape. I can see you spent time for thinking and came up with this approach. The highlight on the hand is so realistic, well done. In my opinion, maybe you don't need to use the shadow for the hand because the whole image is quite conceptual, rather than a real spatial arrangement of objects. Best of luck to you ^^

Thank you so much Langstrum It looked a bit flat without the shadow, but I will see what it looks like without it...It is on a separate layer, so it's easy to remove. I did spend time on this and I'm happy with the result...I'm learning from you my friend, thanks to your great tutorials

wow that hand is verrrrry real looking, but the flag over the planet seems off a bit.

Tried to make it less realistic and focus on hand and plane(where all the detail and time was spent on) and the other two-moon and flag, to compliment the rest as a background. Setting the focal point on the hand.

Realistic construct of hand, artistic and thoughtful image and wonderful presentation of flag..
