Oh lord... that's SOOOOOOOOOOOO Disney... hehehe... good luck!

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!!!

Congrats Cornelia

Fascinating piece. I am sorry I ran out of time and did not get a chance to vote but I just wanted to let you know how impressed I was with this!

congrats Cornelia!!

Very nice atmosphere and very good composition! The bird's shadow could do with a little more tweaking, maybe fade it slightly with a layer mask as the shadow progresses. But it's a very good first entry, and welcome to the site
