Finally got around to cleaning this up in Photoshop. Still doesn't do the piece total justice, but until I can afford a pro photographer or a high quality scan, this will just have to do, I suppose...
I already adored this piece anyway, but the cleanup you did for it makes it look fantastic! The colors and details are properly crisp and vivid.
that is gorgeous. the texturing of the rocks and sea surface, the totally believable paths of the waterfalls, the sloping layout of the castle, it's all so beautiful =')
i can believe that the original is much more vibrant, but still i think this is a great shot of a colored pencil piece.

So good to see this done! Scanning or photographing traditional artwork is so hard.
