I like the water best. the splash is definitely dodgy - you should have left it
out.

u need more fog

From darwallace@earthlink.net:
The one you have, scaled down, would work nicely.  See zee.jpg for a better
example.

From pbourke@swin.edu.au:
The splash is weak. Nice sky and moon, the ship is a bit "perfect".

=====
From panthus@xtra.co.nz:
Excellent image, I think you are too hard on yourself. The composition is
excellent - love the low down moon focusing the action - and while it is a bit
far from 'real', it evokes the event stylistically and is very artful.

Yes, the splash is not the best. 
But it is a great picture!!

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:

Nice image but can't figure out the grenish-borwn blobs.

From douge@nls.net:
Very nice work, although the splash looks like a bunch of rocks instead of
water.

=====
From tony@j4tb.com:
Incredible ropes, as far as your splash try making the spheres smaller.

From whitey@telefragged.com:
Why is the splash brown?  And i love it when people put huge amounts of detail
into something that isn't even visible.

From gregj56590@aol.com:
Good image except for the rocks or whatever where the monster is emerging from
water...
=====
From bbowen@cswnet.com:
Nice sense of drama in the composition. I think an actual water texture might
help your splash; it looks like rocks from here. 

=====
From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com:
Yeah, very well done !
Except the water splashing even if it was intended to be foamy.

=====
From StephenF@whoever.com:
The colors in this scene give it a very 'Disney-ish' look.  
An interesting concept, but the spray of water looks 
more like rocks than anything else.  The ship itself has a 
very nice style to it, and overall the scene looks like 
something out of an animated movie... some very nice 
work here.

From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk:
You've done some great work here.  It's spoiled by the monster which looks like
ruber and the splash, why didn't you at least make it the same colour as the 
sea?  The sail is a good shape but the texture's really naf, the textures in 
general need work apart from the moon which is quite reasonable and the 
lighting is very good.  It's especially good considering it's your first entry. 

I hope to see more of your work in future rounds.  The text file was a bit
too long.

From delfeld@mailcity.com:
The lighting and shadows are excellent.  The sharp contrasts look cartoonish,
but the composition is a classical triangle, and that always works.    Don't be
too concerned if all the details are in the picture (at least, if it's at the
last minute), just make sure that the final image is worth looking at - which
it is.  The theme does come across nicely.

I like everything in the scene except the splash -- looks like potatoes! The
ship and its lights are nice.
