Gazing Up At The Stars

Dammit, this is underrated.

Nevermind the effort you put into this and how much it shows, but this is easily your best work yet. I know the premise of the picture is underwhelming, and I get that you've done much more dramatic or avant-garde pics throughout your gallery, but none hold a candle to this. You made the premise something else. The detail is fucking tangible and the proportion is spot-on. From the star-speckled night sky to the campfire, it's all there. But Braeburn himself looks absolutely magnificent. You shaped his hat and mane near perfectly, and the textures for both just make me wanna reach out and rub 'em.

The textures are their own topic entirely. I especially love the stitches on the vest. And the shadow placement was perfect. Everything about the textures is just spectacular. Your best work with them by far. Especially with the sky and campfire.

I usually oppose critiques like this, but, as said, this is your best work yet. There may be some conventional issue in here somewhere, but I'm blinded to it. In the words of that British bloke I worship, "Absolutely sublime from top to bottom, and I will jab forks into my eyes if I ever have to use those words to describe anything ever again."
