You really took some extra time with all the details in this and it shows and makes this one special. It is my favorite. Great color choices with the clothes, skin work is good, and background looks realistic. Really nice job.

Congrats girl on another very well deserved win! I think I am going to just make a permanent "congrats to PixelDust" avatar. :D

This is also a top entry in my opinion. Nice work!

This is my favorite to win. Good balanced color. Great rust (although I think the roof was all rust, minor detail). Nice work with the landscaping and the buildings! Good luck!

A little too monotone and not showing any rust.

Great job in showing the reflections of the grass off the chrome bumper and lights (something I forgot!). Overall, though, I feel this is too oversaturated for me.

Nice job on the flowers! The pink blouse looks too flourescent to me (and gray in some places). Overall saturation could have been turned down a little.

I love what you did with her blouse. Everything is good except the red hair just doesn't sit well with me.

I like your use of bold colors however I would tone down the saturation quite a bit. In reality, her eyes were green.

This is quite lovely! I can especially appreciate all the extra hard work done to make the flowers white and pink. You are a true glutton for punishment. :)

Her hair and makeup look good. However, I think the overall look is just a little too drab when you had a chance to show some nice color with the flowers.

I think that the bright red drape and carpet take away from her and the flowers, which are the focal point of the photo. But the flowers could use more color. Just my opinion.

Nice work on the flowers and her makeup. I feel that her dress and the red drapes are oversaturated.

The pink screen really detracts from her and the flowers. The carpet could use more brown to offset all the green.

Really nice work on the carpet and the brown fur. I think this would have been super if you would have used the shadow/highlight adjustment to tone down the intensity of the light a little.

Good work on the flowers, her makeup and hair. I'm not wild about your color choices, though.

A little too much color in this with nothing tying together.

A very dramatic look. I love the carpet and the flowers! I think her face looks way too pale, though. Also, you smoothed out the walls and some other areas a little too much to where they lose their dimension.

I think you did a good job in "ruining" this scene. But the girl and the bear just kind of ruin it for me (no pun intended).

You did a decent job on the buildings but I think you got carried away in the foreground and it looks too messy. What is that gold piece just suspended in the air? There is no building to which it looks like it belongs.
