Fabulous work author...i watched your SBS and IMHO state at step 21 is for a bit better then final result.In any case high mark's and fav from me...

nicely done. Like the over aged look as well a the compsition

just wonderful.. GOOD LUCK AUTHOR.. but I think you really don't need it.. woo HOO

well done indeed

Author, I really love the look of this pic. It's a fantastic job! Now I'm going to nitpick a little: The horizontal spar (which is too thick) shouldn't be right on the horizon line...compositionally, it's awkward. Also, judging from the boat's axis from stern to bow, the mast should move to our right.
Other than that, color, mood & use of texture are great...good luck!

Wonderful work and a fabulous sbs

Fantastic work....Great creativity....GL..

Great job!

it is so nice, thank you

Awesome work and amazing creativity... Looks real and the frame has a really nice shape.

Deserves to be at the top when results come out.

Extraordinary in designing and execution . I love the scratching effect

Looks great, well constructed and finished. Allow me one note: the shadow on the right looks odd. The overall effect is of a overcast day, so the shadow should be much less pronounced.

Nice work !!!!

Excellent work! well done!!

I dont want to say anything...... just giving the highest marks...

Awesome

Lot of time spend right there Fabulous result

Amazing work. Good luck.

absolutely wonderful work. thank you for taking the time to make such a good sbs, this one's a keeper. the scratches and irregular edge give an extra sense of age to this, and those ropes are amazing.

The light beams would continue across the entire image...otherwise, nice work!

Thank Lamantine and CMYK46. @CMYK46: the light beams are behind them, they just enlighten a part of the forest. The light on the characters is from the flower (except the one on the ant, but we don't see the light beam here). Anyway, your comment is very appreciated

I love it! Great job!

Very enchanting image! I just think that the bee needs a bit of curves on body's stripes, like Andy.

Really cool dinos! looks like the right dinos back left leg's foot (that is closer to the viewer) is behind his/her's right foot.

XD more dinos , i love them nice work author

I like the way you used the source! Great job!

Thanks a lot for the comment and support, Anna I realise that all limbs need more work, there are some rough edges too and I also planned to add a pterodactyl to the background but... sigh... I am just short of time

and then she said that I said that we said that there was no way she was going to be saying what we said and than I said what? and then he said that she said.. you know what I'm saying?... hehehehe

Whatever you say, honey, it's off with my pterodactyl

Simply W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!!!

It's still really cute. I did a last minute number myself this week.

Your work is nice, it is a lot of work involved to create something like this, but the result is wonderful!

like the spooky ghosty feel.. good luck author

I've watched that movie... It hasn't been as creepy as I've expected, but...
Nice work; creepier mood than the movie!

good entry

nice entry and the mood is excellent , I suggest to make the ropes "thinner" (let see the rope in this ship: http://tiago82.deviantart.com/art/Ship-103154794) and how it connects the pillars seem not correct (maybe you can add many of them, tightened to one pillar but not the other one, because that's the ghost ship, most of the ropes are supposed to be cut and loose). Good luck!

Thanks for suggesstion langstrum. Now you have another gold thump up from me. Fixed and updated.

great job... looks fantastic

Awesome!

its great image, my only suggestion is that its too dark. I think you should have submited like in step 17 or step 18. However its your choice, maybe you like it better this way Good luck author, very nice effort

Good work author one of my Fav.

very nice work waiting for sbs

It's great how you used the light in there! Great job!

Great mood and idea.

great job .!

Awesome work!!! Impressive!

wonderful idea!

Bricks on staircase should be horizontal, not slanted with the stairs. Shadow doesn't match angle of light source.

Thanks CMYK46 , bricks on staircase fixed.

Wonderful image....Nice mood and lighting effect created....Lovely work...

nice work

So scary . I just wish that the house is less clean, a haunted house should be old, full of dust, spider's net, cracks on the wall and even some scratches on the floor. Best luck to you

langstrum, thanks for great advice as usual. I have added some spider'net with brushes, dust and scractch to unclean room. Hope it will ok

Beautiful....

excellent work again

like it a lot ...very good job author

very effective and good work author.

good imagination and a nice result...good luck author.

love the outcome..good luck
