| Excellent rendition! The lips are nice and shiny :-) The only issue I see here is the cricket looks dead, whereas in the original it had one leg entering the mouth so it looked more authentic. Still a very, very good facsimile, reflected in a nice score. |

There is no way I would agree to having crickets go anywhere near my mouth. I gotta' give props to Carol for doing something like that.
The lips are nice.
Colours are very bright and vibrant. =D Great work. |

| As much as I find the thought of a cricket/grasshopper as unappetizing I do appreciate all the fine details and the technicals of this composition. Those red tones really pop off of the white background. Reds are vibrant and bold and immediately capture the eye. Details are really sharp even on the grasshopper. The one thing that I would suggest to improve this image is to cut down on the gleam for it is a little overbearing and distracting. A good polorizer will cut down on the glare and reflection (problem is I don't know how much as that it just might eliminate all the sheen which is not what you want to do). Hmmmm, perhaps a selective editing in toning down the brightness/contrasts, gamma adjust or possibly the use the clone tool with a transparancy of say 10% so that you don't entirely cover the sheen up but just tone it down. |
