Light up the eyes! Light up the eyes!!! And the opening on the door is too bright and forms a tangent with the girl. Kids shopping for eyeballs like candy, haha! Love it!
Everything looks really good, though I find it hard to see what's in his hand - a coin?
The concept and story are great :D Love the depth of field as well. Very effective.
impressive work, thanks for shearing! I like a lot your site
Fantastic!! I love the sketch version though... I love being able to see all the rows and rows of eyes ^_^
Piya: Thanks for the feedback, man! :)
Jonas: He's holding a diamond or somekind of blue gem.. I agree that i can be clearer. Thanks for mentioning it :)
Andres: Thank you for the visit and kind words.
Lesley: Hehe I actually like the very first sketch.. there's something that's missing in the translation to the final one :) Thank you for the comment :)
Loved this one and was easily my vote. I think the perspective was what sold me on it. Nice work :)
Thanks a lot for your support, mjasnowski :)
CONGRATS!! The story is very clear in your final. =D
