The birds look ok, but there seems to miss some interaction between them and the branches where they stand on. Try to put the paws like they're really wrapped around the branches. Good luck!

Lovely image - can't wait to see the SBS!

Very Well Done!

i redraw the tree and take out the heart. i think it looks much better now.thx for suggestions, wazowski.

Honestly it’s kind of hard to tell you used the source image. I could only tell when I looked at the SBS. It’s just my opinion. Please don’t bite my head off for it. Thanks.

i tried to make something different with the source image ,jawshoewah.i don t know if i succeded or not, but i tried and i think is a nice image.maybe i am wrong...

beautiful image well done

Nice job, looks like a long stitch project. GL

Very nice!

this is different and in a VERY good way. painting , drawing and combinding with the source image is a skill unto its self. you did a good job author . GL
