its lovely, i like the grass !!
nice idea as well, but you hear the but coming
:-)
not very good with gimp, but thought i'd try as it's rather differcult
to describe where in the image i'm mithering about

attached jpg has two sections, top bit refers to the ripple effect top 
right of main image possible being more visible left of tracks, left of 
tracks appears very very flat

second highlights bottom half of post and and tracks towards 
'headstock', there some rather hard looking bumps, near the 'wriggle 
holding the rail' particularly.

i just noticed that the rails seems to float, guitar ok rails no; 
question - loose the wriggly clamps and make the rails, similarly size 
wire cables, with weave visible - suspension bridge type cable

noticing that suggests said  wriggles are a bit sparse in reality, yeah 
ok artistic license .... but

thirdly looking at image as i type, maybe the drain covers need to 
darken a bit less rapidly with distance, go black too soon ?
