I'm ashamed of how long I've worked on this, and it's not as good as I'd like it to be, but I'd like to know what others think.
It looks better in full size, so please look at it in full.
Comments and critiques are very much appreciated. Thank you!

This is great, but...

I think your style needs some refining. Nothing entirely new just some cleaning up and stuff. I know you struggle with digital art just as much i do, its awkward on for some folk. One thing is the lines, they are a bit choppy and tasteless, i think you can add a little more and a little less here and there. Then the coloring, which i know is the digital majority of the image. It lacks atmosphere, nothing is really drawing all the air of the image to make it feel like its breathing. And lastly, detail is missing in some places it should be. Like the bottom of the support beams for the tracks and minor details in places like the bark of the wood that could have gave it some depth. All in all i like the picture though, i just feel it was a bit rushed even though you chopped away at it for so long which may be the entire issue. But i know your experimenting and that takes some steps like these.

Luxembourg responds:

Yeah, I agree with everything you said. All in all, this piece kind of blows and I really just wanted to be done with it after a certain point. My computer was suffering from lots of power problems and I lost a lot of progress at various points with the painting and I had to keep repainting certain parts and eventually it just made me miserable. I should have spent more time on it, but I just needed to finish it.
Thanks for the feedback, Tre. I'm having a really hard time lately figuring out what to do with my work, stylistically and atmospherically and it's really hurting my art. I'm sorry for taking so long to respond.

Hmm

I think you could have put more work into this, mainly because the water I think you could have done more with it. Either way still looks good

Luxembourg responds:

I painted the water about three different times and I just had a really difficult time getting it right. I'm sorry for that, and you're right- I should have spent more time with it. I'm glad you like it anyways. I'm sorry for taking so long to respond.

prett damn awsome

its a great blend between creativity and and an a sense of child like wonder.

Luxembourg responds:

Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it. My apologies for taking so long to respond.
