Creepy, but a little too cartoony for me. 7

The creature of "all eyes" in Greek mythos. Very effective in the creation that captures the idea of this being - an above average compositon. The decision to make the main eyes one color while the others are another is interesting. On one hand it makes the main eyes stand out and stare at me/viewer (which probably is giving some the heeby-jeebies). On the other hand the red eyes sometimes call attention away from the main eyes. I am wondering why the choice to not present Panoptes without any pupils because the glowing orbs in the backdrop at times draw focus away from the facial eyes. They are similar in shape and 'texture' ....unless that is the intent to make us think of the 'hundred eyes' without actually showing all of them on the body of the creature (the head-shot is creepy enough).

That's creepy. I especially like the bright spots in the background. It makes it feel like even more is watching you than meets the eye (snicker).

That's very creepy!
Are the more eyes in the background? I think they might be cause they have the same kind of ora to 'em, albeit a different colour. And he's meant to have about 100 I think.

FREAKY! And fabulous. Creative and very well executed. Love the color contrast of the face and the sepia bg.

Fabulous. I love how you did her eyes. Certainly a mythical creature indeed.

I would have voted 10 without all those red eyes. The whole image is great. Her (his? ) disturbing gaze was enough to get a mythical creature
