Thank you, I will be posting a v3 in a while.

I might also do a timeline of it all. I have been recording it.

Eh, it's a piece of work for sure. Has a lot of depth, but lacks a ton of symmetry and focal sections. Objects coming out where they shouldn't, shading darker/brighter than it should be, random brushing casting shadows, and highly aliased borders are really the main problems. After that, colors need to be worked on a bit. The piece looks like an alright LP to start with, so really I just recommend working on pieces around that size, looking at more experienced artist's vector works, and not give up. You're on a decent track.

Thanks, I need to learn how to use vectors. I will fix it up using all your comments, then post it once i think i have a better piece.

I cant tell whats going on.

Try to make your text more readable.

The last R at first looks like an F until you see the rest of it... hidden in darkness.

Not bad... but it could be better.

The excess space at the bottom bothers me. In fact, there's far too much excess space throughout the whole piece for there to be a defined focal point.

I made it to be a background for my youtube page. So i wanted there to be a big extra space on the bottom.

Here is v3:

Not really a fan of it.

Its messy and its not very appealing to look at.

The talent is there, but you just need to learn how to apply it...if that makes sense.

Yeah, i really had no idea what i was doing when i made it.

I was just adding stuff randomly, and then i got alittle high, and added alot more.

And it just popped out like this.

I recorded some of it for somereason:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx6tgxVXDj8

Halmods does not condone the use of illegal substances.

You can get high off of perfectly legal substances.. Either way, update is better; though I don't like your layer usage. Shadows under regular shapes? Looks very early 2k. :| Still, you're getting there. I see a lot of potential.

i actually like v1. You should crop v1 a little. That would do it for me.
