wonderful work here author... very very very nice!!! (love the HIGH RES) eye candy

Love the image. I did noticed in the high res version that at the top of the tea cup one of the stones is showing over the rim and on the far left mug the stone is split and does not look quite right ... other than that it is great. Very original idea!

i second arca.. also i feel the 2 cups on the right end have abnormal cuts in the photo. YOu could fix them. Great idea. Good luck..

Thanks arca n hsbee for the nice advice, looks much better now.
Thanks Driven for the nice comment and the fav

nice, but in the reflection you forgot the stones.

Nice STONEware......GL

Much better!

Gopankarichal ty for the advice, fixed reflection.
Again thanks for the comments!

Very well made! The puppet especially. Expressions and features are perfect.

Very nice Author

Nicely done, especially the color on the hand.

Fantastic job author ! Great job with the "puppetization". Well done !

very very cool work author,details are great...gl

thank you all. this was a really fun contest!
the strings were the hardest part, hand painting them and giving them that twisted look...i'm no good with the pen tool at all. :P i really need to learn that.

and thanks for the fav lamantine soo appreciated!

I thinks this is quite good just wish the lines of the joints were darker to show it more as puppet joints.

Glockman, i contemplated making them darker. but the legs are covered with tights, so the joints wouldn't be as visible through the opaque tights she is wearing. if i'd have made it so she wasn't wearing tights, the joints would be more visible.

however, i may darken the lines in the hands...just a bit. the ones around the mouth i think are plenty dark as they are. :P

Thanks for the comment!

Author, the strings are impeccible. Don't say you don't know how to use the pen tool.

thats the funniest thing...i actually didn't use the pen tool for this at all. :lol: i just used a soft brush.
so thank you for the compliment gamemaster! means alot!

Very nice. Good idea to create a new key from the old one. Great concept and execution.

If I have this beauty, I won't set it free This could make a cool keyholder

really nice, love its simplicity. well crafted.

You added several objects to the table top...only one has a reflection.

Hey cmyk46 I came back and redone it last night I thought there wasn't as much lite on other side and I had put a little shadowing on other side.But when I saw your note I took another look at it your right. Thanks Again hope this looks better.

Ya now its better with the reflection of each object....

Cool...

not a bad chop but overall the image looks cluttered.

Definitely cluttered. Kind of minimal source used as well.
