Ah, there we go, finished with this piece.

A great journey from start to finish. I really wanted to try out some different forms of lighting in this piece, playing up an old, mystical feel. It may or may not have worked, but at least i tried it.

There wont be any huge background pieces from me for awhile. I may even say this would be the last for this two months, due to other commitments, as well as needing to focus on my pieces for the MLP FIM Fanbook Project. Those will mostly be illustrative designs.

Ill be posting those here in the future as well.

Very nice.

I think that there should be some more darker tones and more contrast on the figures so they are more distinguishable from the background as well as their features. I know that there is a large light source but bigger the light source, greater the shadows are.

I think that there should be more contrast around the body and on the head or more specifically, the ear, eyes (or eyelids) and the mane.

When making things more visually appealing, sometimes you need to bend the rules of "realism".

"Simply breathtaking!" were the first words that came to mind. Amazing! Great contrast and lighting, I love it.

This is a wonderful piece! It's incredible that you packed such a massive amount of detail in this picture!

I'm not too sure about mystical, but the picture gives off an old, cathedral-like mood. You've done very well.

It's hard to decide whether the bookcase, it's curvey nature (As well as the detail on the books), or the dome like structure above the heart is the best part of this picture. Either way, it's great!

I will suggest a mild critique, however, it appears that the top of the picture get's quite light, and that the light project from a computer screen makes it appear a bit too bright. Nonetheless, awesome picture!
