I think I do like this better than the original, but I wouldn't have cut off the top of the centre sphere as you have here. Move the top border up just a touch and it will be perfect.
i can only imagine how long this took. i am a new member so these images are overwhelmingly beautiful to me. very sophisticated. i like this too. you do great work. it's very difficult to see what's real and what's not. faved it as soon as i got done with this note^^,.
