perhaps I know who have done this.....u always do awesome work.....

colors, expression an all nice, but size of eyes are not ok(perspective)

That's seriously thinking outside the box. This is a cool peice. Good Work. Good Luck.

This has a great cartoony feel to it, and disappointing lighting issues for such fine work...

on highres the single boards of the bord dont fit well, and it needs some finework in details. but i LOVE this picture! great idea author!

coooool

Really love the work on the eyes.. I'm not sure about the GIANT nail.. it took me a few minutes to realize what if was.. not that detracts from the piece in anyway... the face is SO expressive.. good luck on this.. it's a lot of fun

EDIT: NOW IT LOOKS LIKE A NAIL.. I didn't know how to tell you but in the original submission it looked like a giant deformed olive.. giggle snort..you should heard me trying to figure it out, I scared my cat..LOL much better now) (I make a lot of weird noises when I'm confused)

cute. i like the way you did the background. thats cool.

very creative

haha cool

LOL. Nice.

nice job on the expression and the large nail -- mouth and tongue a bit blurry

lol thats funny/cool good luck

This is so much fun. I like the subtlety of strokes and lighting on the background. It almost looks like two light sources going on here; the drop shadow behind the board and left eye looks like light from above and to the left, the tongue, and the right eye look like light from above and to the right. The wood grain on the table and the board is great. Nice work! Good luck.

LOL very funny

Okay, changed lots of things!!
-Changed size and shape of nail
-Shadows on eyes and wood adjusted
-Added eyebrows
-Sharpened mouth and tongue

Dramatic . Funny outcome, cant see well, but you might want to use the side of the wood for inside the mouth too (so that the mouth looks less flat). The living wood's shadow is made with some greys? I'd use a blending mode, so you're still able to see the wood structure from the floor under. Good luck!

EDIT: shadow on the floor looks a lot better!

Changed blending of shadow underneath the piece of wood (thanks for all the suggestions )

cool

oOo!Great!

Congratulations for 2nd

Congras!
