Thanks a lot everybody. Especially to Alan2641 who pm'ed me about the shackle compared to the body. I've tried to fix, but it is very hard I think. I did fix some other things as well. Have sharpend the rust after a suggestion by Claudio...

Alan2641 [lvl 16] [vp 1000] [ 812]:

Very original idea. Like how the edge of the lock has been done and the shadows on the wires. One small thing however shouldn't there be a hole of the second screw or rivet to have come out of? Glad to be of help in my limited way.

hilleke [lvl 35] [vp 2000] [ 731]:

Very scary ! Great job on the rusty skin if you made that in photoshop. (maybe post a steps guide to show us how you did that?) Try to do something about his collar, it looks very blury...
(1 year and 82 days ago)

arielnine [lvl 17] [vp 2000] [ 196]:

The face and expression are amazing! I would match the rusty color of the lock with the rusty of the face though, and I agree with Hilleke about the collar too.
(1 year and 82 days ago)

Alan2641 [lvl 16] [vp 1000] [ 812]:

Great work on the face, very unique. Will like to see the step by step for the skin, looks like sometohing I would like to know.

hilleke [lvl 35] [vp 2000] [ 731]:

Thanks for the step guide. Now I can give a high vote.

i know you are blufin about the step-by-step but i don't have any time to do it so i did it in a hury sorry
(1 year and 82 days ago)

hilleke [lvl 35] [vp 2000] [ 731]:

The only reason I asked about the steps guide was to see if you used a "normal" face to start of with or if the "rusty" face was made by someone else. A pity you didn't keep more steps, it would have made a great tutorial !

Alan2641 [lvl 16] [vp 1000] [ 812]:

Nicely done, There is a small piece of the underlying key left in the hole of the key inserted in the lock.
(1 year and 88 days ago)

author:

Thanks very much for that Alan2641 well spotted.
(1 year and 88 days ago)

arielnine [lvl 17] [vp 2000] [ 196]:

Very pretty, the keys are great and I love the image color
(1 year and 88 days ago)

coeff [lvl 15] [vp 998] [ 39]:

very nice, but to make it more realistic u should make the bottom part of the lock more green, as koper shows a green kind of rust. you can see this at the original.
(1 year and 88 days ago)

roz [lvl 12] [vp 1000] [ 89]:

the keys look more like placed on a surface, instead of hanging - the left ring wouldnt be positioned that way if the keys were really hanging. other thn that - nice job!
(1 year and 88 days ago)

hilleke [lvl 35] [vp 2000] [ 731]:

I agree with Roz, try to change the position of the keys so they look like they are hanging. Great use of colours.
(1 year and 87 days ago)

author:

Thanks for all the comments desided to change the keys at the bottom to look like the hang down, hope this looks better, thanks again.
