    I like the idea of it.. but you can see some white pixels on the right of magnifying glass.

    Agreed, magnifying glass really needs to be blended in better. Shadow's very un-realistic on it.

    Aside from that it's not bad, hand needs some shadow to help it fit in a bit better ; Don't like the dots on the glass.

    yah it is a good idea I don't personally understand how he's looking a beige / black map and seeing color.. =x but hey its whatever

    also fix the white pixels on the magnifying glace blend it a little better and shadows like broken said :)

    Thanks for CNC guys, yeah, somehow I ended up working on a 72 res canvas, not what i normally use 300. My objective today is to remake the whole thing with a better resolution.

    DPI doesn't matter online, only matters when you print.

    I have to disagree with u on that, edges when working are much smoother with more pixles

    You can't have "more pixels" on a computer, one pixel is one pixel. Neuron's right, doesn't make a difference in quality until you're printing.

    it does look better I will give you that

    but they are right about the pixels...

    also it only looks better because you completely redid the entire thing =/
    if you look at it although it has the same concept.. the stock is better placed along with the magnifying glass w/ hand.. and the colors etc.. are also better it has nothing to do with the 300 res.. its just you redid it better..
