suggest you clone a snow peak in the picture, soften the edges of your selection, add a little distortion, and place on the hump of the camel... now its just blurry (not snow-like).
you may consider lower alittle the opacity for the placed snow to match the camel.

just think tat you can print it and frame it in your room, nice

suggest use "burn" to make the trunk of the cactus darker, as the light source is at the top-down

change title "among the stars"

feel that the moon should be on the left, as if the lady is doing a "moon-dance" to please the Gods. Make the moon whiter and a better glow (however due to the lighting on the lady, it may not be a good idea, on 2nd tots)

arch the carpet or curl it a little, will be more natural

should get a cat with tongue sticking out, licking its lips... eyeing the bird...

add bird shit. as the bird is scared until it let go.... haha....

a paw on the cage would be nice (claws sticking out, shinny-like)

lighting contrast not strong enough to create mood

jus suggesting

if the hanging ant is the other way round (showing the top of the ant) maybe better

the ant on the ground should reaching out one of its 'hands' and looking upwards

suggestions:
1) make the "sparkly dust" a little blurry.
2) can saturate the whole scene a little, colors will be richer

soften the edges around the globe, alittle 'cut-out' feel now

can intensify the glow, add some 'light glow' at the finger-tips

wow... superman during lunchtime using X-ray vision creatively

suggest the iris part to be red and shooting the ray outwards (not a red glow) to show more strength and power to the X-ray, add some smoke...flame...

then he can munch it

the front spider on her lap is at a wrong angle as it is on the "web-net" and not flat on her lap.

jellyfish
avatar aheman
aheman says:

can consider, but not necessary:
1) let the eyes focus at the front, make it bloated (budging or protruded) perhaps can use "spherize" .... as if to say that the eyes are going to explode with the balloon

2) make balloon bigger
3) his face turning blue with effort

Spider Hole
avatar aheman
aheman says:

i like the colors...

suggestions:
1) the title says "Deadly spiders" but the seagull is not 'afraid'... should add skull or dead bodies or something to bring out the theme
2) add a little fang or blood drips

or

just take away the sea-gull, I still like it anyways

Looks like a computer-shooter game!!!

I like it! although the background trees could be better

add bullets holes as if in a "first-person" game, being shot in the glass visor (glass crack)
nice....

sugggestions:

great job... but the picture let me expect something in the pit.

suggest add a little hint of a creature in the pit to complete the whole story

The Hunter
avatar aheman
aheman says:

suggestions:
1) underwater feel, should include glistening to the mermaid
2) make hair more "lighter" (now looks heavy, too thick) and free flowing
3) the dangling sea-plants should have different shades of green to create depth
4) trailing bubbles around arms and tail, to create sense of movement
5) lift up the abdomen of the mermaid to make her more shapely
6) add some fish near her, both infront and behind her

hope these suggestions are useful

aheman says:

suggestions:
1) make the ship smaller
2) make the entire picture in the "night" scene
3) add fire pits or fire coming out of the skull eyes sockets or smoke
4) add snakes sparingly

these add some pizzazz to your compostion

2) add a little reflection in the water
3) instead of candles, change to fire
4) have water spray out of the stone lions' mouths
5) look at the light source and adjust overall shadows n highlights

Back to Paradise
avatar aheman
aheman says:

seems like the insect upside down

suggestions:
1) adjust the wings part near the body to cover some of the legs portion
2) angulate the legs, now too straight
3) too stark colors for the insect, should lighten alittle
4) touch-up the body, so that it do not have a "mirror" line at the center
5) rotate the insect alittle
6) add a little perspective look
7) fade the edges of the shadows to make it more natural (can use a big brush, lower the intensity to erase the shadow edges)

avatar aheman
aheman says:

suggestions:
1) make the waist thinner
2) let down her hair as if blown by the sea breeze
3) the thin gown should be "blown" by wind, not straight down
4) blood should be improved

nice idea, matching her facial expression
