I would really love feedback on this, it is one of the best projects I have worked on and I want to know how to improve it. Also, any thoughts would be nice too.
Thanks all

Retouching it for my portfolio, darkened some of the colors to boost up the contrast. also, change the blacks from dull blacks, to vivid, color-filled ones. Should make for a better overall appearance. Also, fixed a few minor bugs I saw such as the rock formation not continuing past the border.
Also, I did not win the competition, in fact the university screwed all the competitors and chose a graduate students work, when they promised they would choose and undergrads... Mine is still better than the graduate students, If I can find an image to it, I will post it so you can judge for yourself.

I've never seen anyone vector the moon before and have it come out as looking like the moon and not some wierd round thing with strange shading. This is really good. I love the guy representing art, right down to his flip flops.
Sorry to see you didn't win the competition.

beautiful imagery. I like the figures. i think the typeography isn't quite up to the level of quality of the images, mainly the "2004" and "2005" but they're not bad.

i like it! the gradiant on the topmost (rock?) is awesome. only one thing though: the top guy holding the paint looks like he has a black eye- lol. think the shadow might be a *tad* too dark

it's truly beautiful graphic work. my only issues with it are the "creativity, imagination, communication" part. i would like to see it kerned more, right now the kerning is a bit off, and it's a bit distracting since it's in the focal point of the piece. and the "of communication and fine arts" i would like to see centered in the crossbar of the 4.
but those are just my pissy graphic design problems with it.
as i said, the image itself is lovely.

I like the look of it a lot, I've already talked to you about my "issues" with it. Being the first finished one that I have seen I can't really say how it compares but if if they all come out like this it should make for a nice little contest.

well does look like the paint pallet goes under his black t-shirt. I'm thinking the pallet just has a dip there but might look better rounded off...
