wow... The fish looks great. wonderful drawing/combining.

Thank you

Very nice painting, author. Where did the characters come from?

great entry... However somewhere i feel keeping the 2nd "T"s middle potion straight and curved at the top and bottom would look better... \m/

anyways great entry... all the best

This is probably the Red Queen's Alice Fantasy...
Goodness knows she cried, "Off with her head!" enough times - looks like she got her wish...

Great mood, well done!

Very nice work, though I must say, I like it with the rabbit, but final outcome is still good.

Wow looks fantastic, love the way you played with the fantasy attributives and the lights. Originality on the character's choice by excluding it's head :P

Haha thanks everyone and great point mossy I didn't even think of that I did really like the rabbit, but I just couldn't get it and the feet to look like they were actually on the ground realistically. Also I liked the framing better this way

the overall texture is fantastic!

superb, awesome, mind blowing!!! for sure my favorite.

The mood is superb. The blurred backdrop adds up perfectly with the overall scene.
@Author, Good thing you didn't include the rabbit. It's such a perfectly dark scene - a rabbit would've ruined it. :p

What a perfect mood and wonderful job!
I loved every detail! Instant fav!
Special mention to the theme!
Good luck author!

CREATIVE =)

Thanks everyone so glad you all like it!!!

nice work, my favorite, good luck.

Professional quality ... but if I was a paying client (and they can be wrong but they are always "right" I'd ask for the cards to be a touch lighter. Not only to add a bit of contrast but also because reflected light bouncing off them adds depth -- imo

Looks great....and great source!

Just AWESOME!..looooove it!!!
high marks,my fav and.. smells like a winner to me. GL

congrats, I thought the top three here were all very good.

Definitely the most unusual entry - and skillfully done. Congrats!

Congrats!!

Congrats Robert fabulous work

Congrats !!!

The "Sand in a bottle" label is blurry and hard to read. I wouldn't use a drop shadow with text.

I like the "give yourself a beach tan" text, but the "sand in a bottle text" is kind of hard to read. What you might try is using the same technique you used for the "give yourself..." text on the "sand..." text, only make the text dark and the shadow light, know what I mean? Maybe you'll like that better.

thank you for the comment and advice
I'll see what I can do tomorrow

realistic work author..

thank you Kushpatel

@ Mossy B and IDt8r I made some changes to the text "sand in a bottle"
I also added an sbs

I like the change. It looks very classy.

Much easier to read, good improvement!

More contrast would be punchier. And shouldn't it be "TAN in a Bottle"? For me, the sand is an irritant, not an objective, when I go to the beach; the last thing I want to do is spray sand on myself. (Or is this somehow an exfoliant?)

@ DanLundberg - It was ment humoristic - with the picture of the woman all covered with sand

I will have one for me here! lol

Interesting idea

Would of looked great in a tea cup.....like the old saying "storm in a tea cup"

Original idea,I like the way the old custom of putting tiny ships in a bottle has been combined with a modern room
