great

 XO so cool!

Hey, thank you very much :-)  Maybe i just have more luck next time.

You know? I'm suprised this didn't place higher. This was done so perfectly. It really looks like a globe.

really good :) i think that was very difficult do it so ... congratulations :D

Vielen Dank ^^

Wunderschöne Arbeit!

I wonder why this didn't get an award in that challenge, it's certainly better than some of the winning entries

Either way, nice work.

I meant the dithering and color blending. you overruled yourself I must admit.

and what effect may that be?

I love the work so much that playing the devil's advocate I'd say you used transparent layers to gain that wonderful effect...

 Very creative. I will defininetly vote for this.

wow that's really pretty - I love the swirl effect that makes it look like a sphere!

Excellent. The whole piece really feels spherical. One of the best uses of the circle template yet.

How is this not a scene, Captain Kong? It seems rather obvious that it's a scene to me.
This is nice, I like it. I love how the shape of the canvas was incorporated into it. Well done!

I'm not sure if this is a scene, but I like it a lot.  Good job on the curves and stuff.

very pretty...like a snow globe

 I really enjoy the snow globe effect... good job!

Wunderschön. Der Baum hätte vielleicht noch etwas Antialiasing vertragen können, sieht im Vergleich zum restlichen Bild etwas zu kantig aus. Ansonsten: Nichts auszusetzen.

I'll definitely vote for this  Good Job!
