A piece I was inspired to do after listening to The Killers' "Goodnight, Travel Well". Listen to the song on Youtube and then give me comments and critiques and stuff.
 This pic is a guy (doesn't look too good) standing against the ocean, grieving over the loss of a loved one.

| Would anybody be horribly upset if I bumped this? I posted it this morning and it plummetted to the bottom due to the new challenge of mustachiness. |

What you have so far is looking fine. You need to throw in the ocean to see if things are really working. Please don't make a blue ocean...think purples, aquas, greens, greys----with some blue.

I think this would benefit greatly from a perspective shift... Perhaps to be slightly behind and more level with the ground.
I think you could add a lot more depth to it that way. Just my opinion though~ ------------- |

Go get that inspiration photo and post it here you wimp. If you meant "Google 'ocean' and post a picture you find" then I will.
Or I would, but I lost interest. I was sick and didn't have a chance to do it, so...yeah. D: Sorry. :<
