The feathers look a bit out of place, they should all be flowing in the same direction.

I am agree with samvio

the concept is very solid.. might want to add a bit of shading for depth.. but only if you think it needs tweeking.. this would be great in a Hotel Lobby... many places it could fit.. good luck

Feathers look a little better but I agree with Drivenslush about the shading, and maybe make the edges less blurred so that it isn't smudged into the background.

How about trying to smudge slightly the feathers to the same direction?

Nice idea, but imo the idea of using the petals as feathers is completely gone since they're beyond recognition. Go back to your Step 2, have a good look at your reference again and place then the petals in a logic order. May take a little time but is certainly worth it. Good luck!

Edit: looks way better now!

yeah..this entry looks rushed..but I like the concept

thanks Henk, i tried to change the feathers a bit, is it better now ?

nice idea

I think I would have used a different background the blue is a bit distracting from your nice flamingo. Good job though and GL

whoah cool

High marks from me. It reminds me of Bosch. Imagine Bosch getting his hands on Photoshop!

And who is Bosch? Sorry but I know only about Bosch drilling machines or something of the kind

That looks really cool!WOW!

Hieronymus Bosch, one of my all time fav painters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hieronymus_Bosch

Aaaaaa, thanks a lot for the link. Now I know who is that great guy. The problem is that my "creations" look like done with drilling machine in comparison with his masterpieces

Wow, the more I look at it the more I love it. It kinds draws you in. The contrast between the foreground flowers and the background is amazing.
