I imagined garudas in a different way, I like your concept.

great stuff, I like your detailed style. Detailed, careful stuff is always a nice change from the kind of impressionistic/custom brushy speedily done stuff that currently dominates

Grand work! Love the detailing and the overall feel of the piece.

Great stuff.

Lots of detail, but your value composition suffers.

If you desaturate and shrink a picture, ideally it should stay readable due to the interplay of light and dark masses. These don't work that way; they become a camouflage pattern. You want a clearer base to your composition than that.

Anchor the values with the whitest and blackest spot; figure out where the light source is; get the falling shadows do the work for you; combine smaller lights and darks into larger masses for an overall pattern.
