 Painted with light! YEAH! :)

Cropped, adjusted colors (ever so slightly), played with the curves just a bit and cloned out the blow out light that showed up on the pig's nose, ear and back and doged out the rough edges on the shadows. Sharpened and ran through neat image to clear the noise on the background.

beedy eyes are a turn on ;-)
great even lighting as well with minimal glare, a big accomplishment considering this is probably ceramic.

looks like the little roller skating pig i saw in a challenge not too long ago (transportation?). color cast seems a bit yellow, but maybe it's me.

This is well done and silly.

Cute. The centring makes for a bland shot here. If this chubby chappie were further to the right, the overall balance would be better, imho. The colours look a little off, too. Sorry. 4

Nice shapes and shadows, and I like how the red cloth is refleted in the pig. I guess the pig is yellow? But I can't get past the feeling the light is too yellow - I think it would have more impact if the pig were brighter, and the red more red. Color cast would be a simple solution, and maybe bump the contrast a little.
