    Nice clouds. I think the ships and flares in the lower right are unnecessary and distracting.

    Oops, I think you are so very right. I keep doing things like that, adding more and more extraneous stuff and then wondering why the image works less and less well...

    Cheers.

    I wish I could afford props!

    Cheers, I appreciate the comments. Yes, I do work fast, I always have. A few years ago for a period of about four or five months I was producing 1 oil painting every 2.5 days on average. I've done around 450 paintings in my life so far and sold every one of them apart from three I've kept. (Not including all the pencil drawings and of course the digital paintings, etc)

    I look at the first one and immediately think "Jim Burns." Just the rendering style and ship design reminds me of his stuff, and maybe Chris Moore. Both pictures are great. Someone who can work as fast as you can probably make some money.
