Cool concept (even if I weren't a Discworld fan). The awesome turtle is the only sharp element, however, so it becomes the focus with Discworld itself fading into the background. I don't get the white band around Discworld. The froth at the bottom of the waterfall could better match the contour of the turtle (most especially on the neck). In hi-res, whitish edges are apparent on the elephants (especially the rear ones) and the lower rear portion of the turtle.
like your entry gl
idea is good -- the elephants need to be warped or rotated to fit the shell better and some shadows are needed to get rid of the floating look
The black background makes the dome look too cut and paste flat. Perhaps a starry sky from Nasa.gov would help.
Thanks for the suggestions folks. I've only slightly warpped the elephants and added a bit more noise etc to the background. I'm just a little cautious about putting in a really good background in case in takes away the focus from the main objects.
Howdie stranger!
