This will be my entry for the current round of the irtc. But, the problem is
that I can't decide whether or not a real early WIP looks better than the
"final" image! I like the simplicity of the early one, but the newer one
obviously has had a lot more work put into it (a few days work, compared to 2
hours for the first image!)

The WIP is the red picture, and the newest version is the golden one.

So, which one should I submit?

They're quite different from each other, but I suspect I'd get marked down if I
submit both.

Thanks in advance for your advice and comments :)

I like much more the golden one. The red one loses too many details, I 
think.

I really like both of them.

I think I would submit the top one, just because it seems a little more real
looking, but I like the very abstract yet still real red one.

The golden one has a greater sense of space which answers the topic better

The newer one is very nice. The older one is still nice but it's a bit
simplistic

Not sure about sending in two instead of one, should only be seen as more
choices.

If I were to narrow down a catagory for these to I'd call the golden one
surrealistic and the red one minimalistic. I favor surrealism. Although you
could just about call both of them either kind. If the red picture isn't
going to go further then the other would be the only one to submit if I had
to choose. Those are all facetted boulders scattered around, aren't they. If
so it really makes for a clear distinction from the curving swirl-thing. A
sort of organic versus inorganic matter on a orb like the others in space
amid some lifegiving light.

I'd say the golden one too.

It's not lonely if you're a rock, though, is it?

:-)

All the best,

Thanks for the advice folks, looks like a unanimous decision that all my
hard work was worth it!

That's a great analysis of the images :)

I hadn't really thought about the organic/inorganic thing, I just did
faceted rocks 'cause it "felt right" in the scene, but I think you're right
about why they work. I might have to borrow your description for the text
with my entry ;)
