Artist's Comments

I thought I'd try something completely different... Well this is what came out of that thought! I like it now, lets see if I still like it tomorrow...

Edit:
Changed the background color and a little bit of the lay-out...

Hope you like it!

God bless

Wow, nice! Very sharp image quality and vibrant colors. An overall texture that's thinner around the books and fairly translucent could give it a better sense of unity, but quite nice.

The colors are BEAUTIFUL. Thanks!

Great job.

Alright so you're using photoshop, right?

You make a new layer on top of everything and you put a texture on top of it. I like to unsaturate it just to keep from adding a dingy look where I don't want one. If your picture wasn't so busy I'd recommend *Inthename-Stock but that might make it too busy, so instead I'd go for a relatively flat texture like stone or stucco. You can find a whole mess of textures on deviantart by going:

browse - catagory - resources - textures - all textures

Set the texture layer on multiply and lower the transparency to about 10% or less so that it's almost not there, but present enough to add a sense of unity. Duplicate the later. You then can use the lasso tool to highlight the center area in a rough oval, feather the selected area (under "select" on the tool bar), and delete. This will create a graduation from higher transparency towards the edges to very faint transparency in the middle, provided both layers are on multiply. It might give a papery look to your picture, depending on what texture you use, but it should also make it all look like a whole.
