What do you think about the composition??

I can't really make out whats happening in the piece. Too much smudging?

Is it too dark in the lower area?
Sometimes i have these problems with my Images.
I don't get the right setup for my screen. :mad:

it is a little dark. Also, the smudging seems to detract from the composition rather than giving it depth.

The colors in the outlined ship-area should be very pure to set it off

Aren't they?

I just cant make out the form of the ship. I mean...yes, you told me what it is....so I can envision it. But, if I was unaware...I would be truly...unaware. :)

Ok! Thx van.

I.. honestly cant see the point of the yellow area. it draws all attention that way and also blinds us, so the dark area goes SUPERDark!

The spaceship has a nice rusty look to it though, and the space has a sweet deep blue feel! You should try and get the eye to catch that region a whole lot more.. add highlights perhaps?

That may be the reason I cant make anything out of it when trying to view objectively.

First, cool ship from what i can see.
but...
I think you should drop the yellow part and lighten the area around the ship. It would be a lot easier to see the ship if you even just made the background behind the ship the same color as the dark blue off to the left.

I think that would give it a kind of cool eerie feel also.

but then what do i know?
