    That's quite nice. One of your best after looking quickly at your site. The foam feels a little unformed, as do the rocks, but that seems to help draw the eye to the platform itself. Reminds me, mood wise, of some of the Ryan Church and Eric Tiemens concept work for "Attack of the Clones".

    I like it. The colors mix really well and the main eye is drawn to the platform, instead of distracting foreground or background elements...

    Pretty nice but I have a question about the lighting... are there two moons or is something descending from the clouds above the platform? Seems odd..

    There's some really nice technique in here, but I would watch your values. There is no reason for the water to go all the way to white like that. The lights on the building and the light in the sky should probably be your brightest points, which would also help nail down your focal point more. Right now my eye just goes right to the water. Something to think about anyway. Good stuff anyway!

    Thanks for taking the time. Its always nice to get feed back. Nothings worse than being ignored entirely. Originally the sky was much different in the initial comp I did. And I decided to tone it down so as not to have it compete with main structure. The similarity in values between the moon and clouds I agree does create a little confusion. So no my intent wasn't to show two moons.

    Thanks for looking. Hope to post more soon.

    very nice. Whats up with the ocean though? looking at the background compared to the crashing of waves in the foreground....whats going on? A bit too excessive? probably...But that would depend on whether this vessel is about to land of take off from the water...in which case would make sense, and therefore my analisys was a complete waste of time..*sigh*

    lol, very nice. Going to check out your site now




    EDIT: hey, just checked out your site. Great stuff there, hope to see more

    Nice! There is something about the lights on the platform which I like. Somehow they attract me more than futuristic lamps generally do... which is not much at all, in most cases.

    I like the white swirl of the water. It's different and playful. There is of course a lot of strange winds and powerful engergies around this machinery which unsettles the sea.
    The thing I do think could do with some changes is that long extrusion from the platform. Looks a bit simple, and I can see no good use for it... other than making the whole structure look like a cute little leaf.
