Description clutter!

in the end, the composition looks a little messed up, but I couldn't bring myself to delete things or add more.

I used filter on the left side and lost the original picture... so now it looks all painted in a bad contrast to the right.

but I think the patterns were fun to do, overall.

critic welcomed.

This reminds me of the Under the Iron Sea album cover by Keane.

Nice job.

I love everything about this...
The colors and patterns fit so well with the subjects, emphasizing them while still remaining it's own entity.

SUHWEET! The patterns are done so magnificently. It looks like you put a lot of effort into it since it's so clean/neat. Wonderful designing.

I think there is a good balance, personally I don't think that its jumbled. Each "part" does its job well (?).

Nicely done! COLLECT. XD;;
