Super interesting work author....work on a feather is fabulous...well done

Beautiful wood grain! I expected the "Dear John" letter to be sadder than it was ...
Really lovely image, great work!

Very nice take on the theme

Everything made from scratch deserves a well done !

IMO one of the planes should be lighter, otherwise well made.

Thanks CMYK46 for your comment, I thought about it and agreed that the writing area should be a little lighter than the back. So I lightened that area, but I didn't like the color, so I did the reverse and darkened the wood at the back behind the drawers slightly, I think it has improved and it makes the drawers stand out more too.

super nice look here great use of the tools

Very neat work

Boy, that's an old song!!! Nice rendering, but the large hands are too blue in tone, and the dancer's legs and feet look very odd. she looks like she is wearing blue/purple tights (the same color as the blue hands), and her visible foot is squished up, making her leg look really fat.

Thanks for the tips! I'll work on them when I get the time. Been very busy lately. I appreciate the tips though

SUPER DUPER CUTE.. great job

very very nice work author...gl

Author, you might want to post a SBS.

all photos taken by mee last year

That's why you're supposed to upload a SBS - because you're using your own photos.

This is very nice. I like it alot and it works very well!!

I feel sorry for your mom (must have been a hard child-birth)
Haha gl author

After seeing the SBS I must say this is good work.

Great work, so that's what schizofrenia really is about.

very nice realistic work...gl

author.. when you added the texture to the clothing.. you need to distort/warp the pattern so it follows the folds of the original fabric.. try displacement map tutorials (there are several) (you could also just nudge the texture around with warp tool/liquify.. that might help.. just gentle)

also the title of the piece.. I think it is suppose to be Misses Jones...

Good luck.. the work on the face is fantastic

EDIT: Much improved

LOL she looks scary...........though nice results....

Thanks to all for your comments and advices, Drivenslush i go change the title !

I follow your advices CMYK46 and Drivenlush i put away the texture because i need to train a little bit with a good tutorial

Well done, it looks lovely without that texture..Good luck

Looks much better without that texture. One thing you could do, either lower the amount of green in her eyes, or if you really like the bright green you can darken the pupils so they show more. Here eyes just look a bit strange to me, since they look all green and don't seem to have pupils.

This is the best so far =) Great job!

Awesome work, but I just can't figure out if that recycle bin and the hand are ON the paper or IN the paper... If you know what I mean...

GREAT, GL

fantastic construction

Fabulous...great idea and fantastic execution...best of luck author...

If I receive this card ------->

'Big picture' is cool but I think details could be refined. I like the 'handwritten' additions, although "John" seems trite. I share dinomario10's concern. Maybe if the card's plane were tilted forward to match that of the recycling bin, the discrepancy between the two would disappear along with the optical-illusion confusion. I also think the second line of printed text should be linked to/closer to the third line rather than the first line. I would put "nearest available" together on its own line as well. And a period after "BIN" wouldn't hurt.

hahah, Best so far. Great .

it is realy nice

good one

that is the funniest so far ! very well done author ! great work !
