Hand of devil...

bumpied-bump for any other comments? apparently it doesn't grab much attention? or is it that far off?

well, it looks rather threatening, not like the hand of god to me

also, the hand appears oversoft at the edges ... IMHO

 

[Jermz_01]

thanks! I have to admit the look is a bit more "intense" than I had hoped (as Elektro mentioned)... I was hoping for the aged / weathered look... as in, God is eternal...

as for the blurring, again, I was hoping it would actual add to the intense light coming from behind the hand... maybe I am off on that though?

thanks, I appreciate the remarks!

Interesting concept.

Maybe folks avoid commenting on God because God may be more threatening than represented here?

I always think of a big finger coming out of the blue and squishing someone. That's probably just due to my gothic Catholic upbringing. In that light, God here seems to have rather tiny hands... and a little pale.

I was repressed for years before Python came to the U.S. I got into this guy's work when I was about 12.
