Nice result. It looks like the interior of a huge alien starship which is populated by weird creatures or robots. A scenery that reminds me of certain movies of science fiction.

I like this result very much, a very cool structure/room. Much more accessible than fractals full of colour I think - this is definitely a style you ought to continue experimenting with.

One critique I have is that there is no sense of different weight to the various parts of the image. With equal weights the eye cannot read the depth quite as well as it may. One thing you might want to try is going over the large "flat" surfaces with a large brush to clean out some of the multitude of small lines on the large surfaces - I suspect this is an easy way to further make the image "pop" by creating contrasting areas of low- and high detail. Enhancing details with the Dodge tool could also easily add highlights and further bring out the parts you want to be in the foreground or focus of the image. Just some ideas. :)

Very cool at any rate, thumbs up!

Love your mandelbulber stuff, PC!

Oh, wait, where are the aliens? Those objects on the sides look like soldier-bots.

photo comix: :clap this is a nice one! usually i like your most colourful ones best, so i was a bit surprised how much i liked this black and white one :). i can agree with griatch that a bit of weighting wouldn't hurt, but i guess one can't have it all. another thing that wouldn't hurt this picture is one of your stories to go with it - please?

photo comix: oooh, those coloured ones are neat!!! the last one is a bit too noisy, the black and white version was more crisp, but the other three look lovely and the aliens/robots come out very well there.
