Amazing detail here, for one moment I thought it was just the character on the left super-imposed onto an image of a bank note. That is until I decided the zoom in. Bravo!
Like the way you rendered paper & mettalic texture with 20 colours.
Looks real =)
Debo felicitarte mi hermano! este dibujo es genial!!! sos un mounstro, se nota muchisimo tu evolución!
Awesomely done, jal. Reminds me of some south-eastern asian currency. And yes, though there is a strict color limit in the callenge, you've managed to do the holo-effect.
Apart from all things below I love how you gave the texture effect.
Gets my vote, great colors and the style make it unique, keep it up :P
I had a good laugh, Bank d' Jal!
I think you should remove the hologram effect and consider doing it differently, because the forms with these effects are quite hard to read. I think more contrast will improve this piece drastically, especially between the background and the scarab, but also on the writing at the bottom of the note.
This is really exciting to look at, thanks for making it. : )
@Dawn, yes!, the 20 color limit really hurt in making a hologram/metallic effect in very limited areas. I found I really needed more subtle color changes for the note overall. Quite challenging as it turned out and this is the best balance I could find :/
Great looking note. The green is a bit odd on its own...if I understand it correctly you were trying to convey chromatic dispersion but ran out of rainbow-colors?
I like the green color reflections of the hologram.
