      Not my favorite. IMHO you've done better work. Great models, though.

            great looking pics especially as each one improves on the last IMO. Really like the last one. Are those chairs at the front door?

              For color saturation, I like to combine 1st and 2nd set together.
              I like ur color schenme but sky, it look massive and heavy a bit.

              ur 2.5D tree, i believe u use it, also look great.
              For overall, I love this ur style so much. 😎

                Thanks a bunch, Guys, glad you like! Also, really helpful to hear specifics...

                sam: the big heavy sky is supposed to make the little houses look grounded, safe and cozy...works for me, but so much of this stuff is so subjective(?).

                rich: yes, little craftsman benches; like the bracketed arch over the door, Sears included some simple style and luxury inside and out in a pretty cost effective way, I think.

                Bruce: love it! :`) That one is my least favorite of the last five...so glad to hear it is still well placed in the range of working. I redid some of the areas I felt problematic: did I ruin it for you?

                    Hello. Really very nice. πŸ˜„ What about some tutorial about, how to do something like this?

                    Thanks in advance. πŸ˜„

                      I'm with Tina. The last one is the best, although I'd like to see what happens if you dial back the saturation a bit.

                        These are all pretty enough to frame and hang on the wall! Very nice indeed, Tom.

                        Take care,

                        John S.

                          Thank you, thank you...John, long time no see! How ya been? Ray, that's like pulling teeth for me (I did try duller first with it but then went back and punched it up...I'm hopeless :`) Coulteri, same tech as I have posted before...just a different layer mix and lots more screening (with a greyscale copy of the WC filter layer): and as you can see below, it's certainly not set in stone yet!

                          This one more out of the sketchbook rather than old bookplate...whadaya think?:

                            The full monty (no screening)...a couple of FotoSketch layers over SU edges and shadows topped with some uniform splatter burned in:

                                Love it! Has a soft, dreamy experience and the colors are great!

                                  Thanks, Tina...good to hear: with my proclivities (and I'm starting to suspect my monitor as well) I was thinking it might be a bit hazy and dull.
