i like it very much,acrylic,looks great!

It looks great, but that little thing "flying" close (or towing?) to the heads with the radiating halo thing is kind of hard to make out. (probably just the size anyway)

i did a little adjustment to this.

a) remove halo
b) rotate the sunrays so that the master are more visible
c)lighten the turtle's face

let me know which version you prefer...

I like that above version more and the darker face of the turtles. Maybe some of those sunrays are destroying some of the composition, especially that one above the magician.
I made you a quick overpaint, nothing special, I do realize that my version without the red sunray above the magician is taking away the symmetry of the sun, so take it or leave it.
Maybe I did scribble over your last piece some time ago, cant remember, but if you think I am annoying let me know and I will take this one down.

btw one more thing that could be cool is to add light to the top and go darker the more further down it gets, didn't know how to fix that without the dodge and burn tools so I left that part alone. hmm just a thought though, could add to the depth of the piece.

keep up

awesome! looks really good

I really like it.
However there's something in it that makes me think of some kind of circus anouncement, don't know if it's on purpose.

This is really eye-catching. Idea-wise I really liked the prismatic rays around the master though... Maybe they could have been just an arc over him if they obscured him too much?

Thanks for all the comments and support here. Really appreciate itguys and girls.

Here is something out of the discussion here:
I got lotsa mail asking for a print every now and then i might as well announce this if anyone interested and wants to get a print of this and other works... shot me a mail, got a sufficient amount of orders already before i submit for final printing just checking on the quantity so i could print them all at once. Got no time to print it on order basis.OK enough of promo

Great - i think it improved during this thread-process. In the first version it was extremely hard to make out any magician - in the latest version, all the composion makes im pop out in a good way.
The only thing you miss in my eyes is to change the cloud in the upper-right corner the same way you did with the turtle - in the pre-version it has the same vlaue and all, but now the cloud doesn't really fit in anymore.

PS: Nor print for me, because i think the shipping would be to expensive - or where do you came form(me german)?
