I don't know if that's how you spell "Boogieman", if anyone knows the correct spelling, let me know. This pic took about 3 hours in PS. Any comments/criticism would be appreciated.

Very "Monster Island" -ish. Nice pic with a well established mood.

Very nice, Tinusch!

Great atmosphere, colors, composition and theme!

2 detailed comments: 1) maybe add nails to the fingers (if you even want them), and 2) maybe add a shadow from the window sill (like you did with the bedframe... coming from the same light source).

Cool stuff!!

The shadows and highlights on what appears to be chipped paint up in the corner are muich too deep and strong. They look like they stick out far from the wall and then go really far back once inside the hole.

Ridiculously good stuff.

Thanks for the comments. I forgot all about the fingernails and the shadow of the windowsill, thanks for reminding me, Kurisu. I knew the holes in the wall looked too deep once I zoomed out, but I had spent so long on them that I didn't want to change them.

I've made all the changes (fingernails, shadows, and wallpaper). Look better?

Hehe, Synj... I used to watch that movie all the time when I was little... Hahaha... I used to think that part where the dog faints was the most hilarious thing ever...

Alright, I;m going to complain about the holes this time again. Now it looks as if they were embossed, since the lighting on the left side seems to be coming from the wrong direction. Maybe if you made the highlights really faint and much smoother, you'd get the effect you seem to be looking for.
