it's pretty bad. Your color choice is horrendous, and the "glow" around the world is weird.

I didn't think it was that bad..

I mean elaborate on what you think the colors should look like.

To be honest the only problem I saw was how fast the contrast went from blue to brown. Make it more subtle....like, make the contrast ratio higher between shades. Maybe a blue-ish brown if there's such a thing.

Pretty cool, the only thing I attest to is that the animals should be slightly curved, to fit with the natural curvature of the earth.

I really liked it. It has this really cool feel to it. Nice transparencies.

It looks pretty good, I like the array of colors, and how it seems like you can see the atmosphere on the rim of the earth. Mostly near the upper-left side. Although there were some parts where the glow was blatantly erased, and perhaps you should make it blur/blend more into the background so it isn't so obvious.

The orca seems like its just erased badly around the edges and just pasted in. the whole picture seems kind of like a collection of animals overlayed on the earth.

try to make them blend more naturally and dynamically with the earth.

The lower left is very confusing, I see a boar, with some bush environment around him? that shouldn't be there, only the boar would have been enough, this makes it messy and confusing.

what needs fixing?

-color flow
-animal blending with the earth
-clearer choice of pictures(these look kinda static and pasted in, try to find dynamic pictures like if they where to jump out of the picture.)
-better overall clean up(non-noticable erased edges)

Actually, what I was trying to do was have all the animals slightly covered in their camouflage. Boar - Jungle, Whale - Waves, Bear - Forest, Eagle - Mountains, but I couldn't do it without it looking extremely sloppy.


And thanks for C&C
