Love the whole image ... your Mushroom guy is wonderful and I noticed him and got the whole feeling of coming home. The atmosphere you have created with a few mushrooms and some magical lighting is ... well, magical! Extremely excellent work!

Cool little 'shroom house! I like that crooked chimney, very Tim Burton/storybook looking. Very nice work, author. How the man fits in there? Why, I'll bet he eats a little bit of the 'shroom and "gets small"........

good experimantation on lighting... i wonder how the mushroom man will fit into tht hut, esp with his big hat.. well done author...

@pearlie: haha.. tht could be the solution pearlie...

It's really lovely!!

Wonderful work and an excellent sbs, well done

Very cute, but the mushroom house is too angled on the hill.

I love the lighting on this one. Guides the eyes. :0

great job

Good suggestion ponti55, slight change really makes a nice enhancement. Author your explanation is most helpful in understanding your thoughts in creating this fine work.

Wonderful result, and an excellent use of the source! And even though the concept of a mushroom house is a little dated, this entry looks amazing.

From your SBS it looks like you spent a lot of time on the mushroom guy you created, but he's not too visible in the final image, i suggest brightening that up a little to make him pop out some more.

Great job

very beautiful

Nice work! Good Luck!

very good drawing...

COOL ----> true anime work....

Your light sources are all over the place. The bird is lit from the left, there is a sun on the right behind the rocks, the clouds are lit from above right, and the light rays coming from the nest aren't illuminating anything...Good concept, CLEAN lines, but you need to consolidate the lighting and make it consistent.

very... very nice job. I realy like it ;D The color balance is perfect and it looks so mythical. Congrats!

great job, love the color and the mood

very nice...

I really like this but I have to agree with akassa the composition makes it look as if the branch is heading miles out to sea (unless thats the intention), maybe a little blur could be used on the parts of the image in the distance to bring the nest back.

awesome entry!

Nice concept, for some reason the nest seems to be off perspective to me, the first thought i got was that i was really far away, then i noticed it was on the branch, maybe you should remove from of the intense light placed on the bottom part.

Beautiful... If it wasn't a seagull, I'd say it was the Holy Spirit.
