I think if the cups are going to have a dark shadow the balls and vase should as well. Good Luck!

Funny idea, the vase edges need blurring, i can see some white parts.

Very nice use of lightning. I like the texture too =]

Lovely with the constrained palette and fin de siecle [circa 1900] feel. I do think some stronger shadows to anchor the figures (especially the fawn) to the ground are needed. That does get complicated given the bright background light yet the figures are front lit.

Like this! reason? It looks like a stage, the backdrop appears almost painted on cloth, the two figures on a stage.!

Nice work and beautiful image. I kinda wish the bottom areas weren't so 'liquified' looking but it doesn't detract from the nice work you've done!

It s a nice work, although the source is barely recognisable anymore it looks beautiful. It could have a little bit more depth though to bring the bird more to the foreground and stand out. im holding off my vote just a little longer

Very creative idea. The barrel would have a little more wake behind to show the movement that matches the splash in the front. And the reflection, I think, would be wavier. Nice tones.

The concept is utterly breathtaking.

But it does look somewhat unfinished. Or at least unrefined. Ropes do not attach properly to anchors, they just point in the general direction. I'm not as concerned with a fluttering skirt because the wisps of hair around her face are also relaxed and not breeze-blown. However, MossyB made some excellent suggestions about the body. I will add two additional things that stand out to me: the right arm appears attached to her back, since the right side/ upper rib area extends too far; an armpit should be there and arm angled differently. The second thing is the right scar / wound - because these are not random injuries, but are where two symmetrical items (the wings) were removed, the scar/wound on the right would more closely match the left wound.

I wish you had more time to adjust!! Would love to see an edited version. :\ Good luck, author!

UPDATE: I just realized you used a 3-D concept for the body (that teaches me to look at the SBS before commenting!) The critique of the body is still valid. Just goes to show that not all 3-D renderings realistically and accurately depict anatomy with success.

suggestions:
1) make the waist thinner
2) let down her hair as if blown by the sea breeze
3) the thin gown should be "blown" by wind, not straight down
4) blood should be improved

nice idea, matching her facial expression

The anatomy is somewhat wonky. Her left leg is noticeably thicker than the right, as if she has a swelling problem. The left knee joint is also lower (which may be causing the swelling...)
