imo a bit too much noise, but very nice mood!
The noise was reduced, but kept the same tone, for it was understood that the request for this contest.
Thank you for the comments!
Excellent execution and vision as usual from you author!
One of the bests so far; I'd suggest you to darken the background a bit and add some more contrast. Anyway its still an amazing artwork! Good luck

You all have amazing workes here! :) (5 years and 2818 days ago)
Not bad for a first entry ; I'd suggest you to decrease the size of the butterfly a bit, and also remove the nail on its back. I like the way you positioned it; it looks more real. I'd also ask you if you coul diminish the color tones of the butterfly, its a little too blue. Otherwise its a good start! GL!
Hi Lamantine, thank you for your feedback!
Much better; a little more contrast might enhance it but its still very nice GL!
Thanks!

Great job with the butterfly; IMO you could add some shadows to the background and use a colour more of black or gray than brown. Otherwise its amazing Good luck!
Thanks for the feedback Lamantine, good luck with the book.
I added a subtle shadow but kept the background plain as it would be easier to add whatever text for the book cover that way.
Thanks I wish you good luck for the contest, its better now
Desaturated the image at 60% to reduce the brown look
I like the change as well, seems more moody and ominous now.
