cool

WoooooooW!!!!!!

Oh it's rufus!!!! so cute!!! love the eyes

This is awesome...perhaps a more interesting background would finish it off.

excellent suggestion Stowsk, and I tried several back grounds, but I decided to just let the piece be, I started to build a body, but I knew it would take too long to make it work, so I stopped once the head was done..(shading a Chrysanthemum TAKES FOR EVER) Thanks for all the kind comments

Like it.....Good job Author......Good Luck.

Very nice indeed Author Cool chop

very very nice

Great job...and wonderful use of source, author! Agree with Stowsk...

nice!

I could immediately fall in love with the eyes. They look great! Very good idea, to use a fish image to get this great iris. Such a cute little thing. Good luck!

Ah! That kinda scared me ! But it's very cute

Good idea but theres a few things that let it down in my opinion. bad masking, colour choices like blue and orange, white glow on plain black background and floating head.

great work.gl

so cute .. great use of source.

@JSK... I just wanted the source to show very clearly,, I could have easily blurred and smudged all the masking but then it would have looked like fur, and I wanted the source to be seen.. as to blue and orange.. the last time I checked the rules of traditional complimentary color, (Blue to Orange, Red to Green, Yellow to Purple) (since the dominant color in my piece was Blue, I went with orange overtones and an orange mouth... I added purple to compliment the Yellow of the original image (I'm a big Cezanne Fan), and I already explained the reason for the background...and I'm very happy you think the head is floating..it was one of my main goals But to alter it now wouldn't be fair to all the nice members who already voted

I'm terribly sorry this piece is such a let down for you.. I'll try to do better next time

Just my opinion. You can take my critics on board or leave it as it is. Im happy either way. just trying to help. btw i ment that blue and orange were strange choices for a dog, not the way they compliment eachother. Just want to point out that i think the contruction of the dog is well done but its not as precise as i would have preffered. Then again my opinion so dont worry too much. Anyways good luck

@JSK.. cool

Nice lookin' pooch indeed, but I agree with JSK too...

@CMYK... darling, I could draw a perfect replica of the Mona Lisa in blood and crayon and you'd tell me I didn't give her any eyebrows and I obviously used blood to create it LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

just funning

Very nice! I love him.

Edit: I knew it was you when I read your exchange with JSK.

Very nice use of the source, the butterfly's wings look a bit odd to me.. but the rest is pretty much perfect! Good luck

Beautiful! And even more beautiful together with the title. *sigh* Very lovely composition and I especially like the branch with the caterpillar on it. Good luck!

Very nicely put together author, its a rather calming image to look at.

Beautifully done! Love the lighting and overall mood of this.

the little snail coils as accents is a wonderful touch.. and the over impressionist feel is very nice.. love the window effect.. like there is a whole different world beyond the edge.. very good job author

Good job in creating the mermaid! Her tail looks great I ditto vladimir, because of the "bra". Maybe you could work especially on her right side, cause right now, there is no shading like on her left side. Good luck!

Good work!!!
