I think you will make it look better if the cow was smaller. The two elements now are fighting too much.

Your on to something, but switch it. The focus is to be in the Cow do. I'll make the cow larger.  Oh? You say that's not feasible?   Neither is a skeleton cow jumping over a moon. Let alone how big it is. Lol.

I think make the cow bigger, put his front legs out, like he's in mid-leap.

Yes,  I thought about that.  I might try it again but would need to re-work the leg and I got lazy once it was done.


I masked off the back leg to set it behind the moon and put the front right leg in front of the moon to identify some depth but it just wasn't enough. So yes. your right, but I'd need to re-draw the legs but for speed, I just sent this and can change it later if approved. Currently, the customer loved it but waiting on his customers response.


Thanks guys.

Something about the moon is odd, I think its the bottom part it looks like a melon or something. Just my opinion.

It will be easier to notice once complete but it's intended to (represent) a mouth of sorts. Like a skull face in the moon. Couple eye openings and nose above that area. Trying to hide it within the texture of the moon. Don't want it to be standing out obvious but also semi recognizable.
