Hey there Lori
I love the way you can look into this one! Its kinda an eye teaser. The shading and colors are just right! It does look like its rusting away a little. Great job on this creation.

Well if you didn't leave your toys out in the rain then they wouldn't rust. :)
Wonderful image Lori. Great design and creation, lovely colours and concept. Good luck in the contest.

With their tentacles reaching out and touching it could seem as if they feed off of one and another. The lighting is very effective. As always, great design and coloring. Lori, I wish you all the best in the contest with this wonderful entry. ~~ John

Good use of complementary colors, I like the pattern and the three dimensionality in parts of it.

This one looks like some intricate wrought iron railing sculpture, rusting through the various colors of paint. The textures you're using do indeed make it appear as though it were decaying and, as it happens, it's a beautiful piece besides. Good luck, Lori.

How did I miss this one Lori?? I really like this design. The colors are monstrously good for this particular design!! Sue says it reminds her of the steering wheel of a ship!!:) Of course I like the symmetry and the opposing sides like a battle for control. The texture reminds me of a granite or stone counter-top:):)Very, very cool image.
