I haven't completed a digital painting in a while. (I have a lot of wips, but nothing finished) I didn't want to lose touch or fall behind so I just wanted to do something pretty.
Peacocks apparently only go in pairs, that's why I drew two. These are both male peacocks so they can be best buddies, or...
I think I'm getting better at working quicker
Overall, this only took about 6-7 days, on and off, rather than a few weeks like all my other ones, lol. I'm very happy with it

I really like the piece. The whole scene is eye-catching and the scenery looks very spacious. You managed to capture depth in this picture. Also, it's quite unusuall, a garden with windows and arches. I like this idea, to me it seems pretty original.
I don't like the way you've painted the leaves. They look a liitle bit too boxy and repetitive to me and make the picture look rough. However don't take it too seriously because it is quite personal as I generally don't like such a style.
Also the peacock which is in the back blends a little to much with the background. I know it is in the shadow but it could be more exposed, it's hard to explain but sometjing is not right to me. Perhaps darker shadows or making the head stand out more would make it better. Also the light seems to come from someting like the upper right corner and the ground, that seems to be in front of the second peacock ir rather under its feet, is lightened. Shouldn't the peackock cast a little shadow on this lightened place? I don't know, but it is also possible that it was your intention to paint it this way.
Generally I like this picture a lot! I love how the first pecock looks. It's perfectly exsposed by this lights on the ground. This peacock itself is the best and most remarkable detail of this picture. As I said I also love the whole conception of the strange garden between windows. It is creative and innovative.


























This is just simply gorgeous.
The peafowl are beautiful, so realistic. Every detail is captured perfectly.
For the background, it is stunning. The arrangement of stones, trees, grass, and flowers is just enchanted. The sun and shade upon the whole thing is just magnificent! It looks like a truly magical place. I would love to go here if it was a real sanctuary.
The technique the artist used for this piece is just WOW. It looks like a traditional painting, not a digital one. The blending, shades, etc. is awesome! Too beautiful, I've always loved this piece. I can see black-dicefish being the next da Vinci! This is amazing, five stars.
