"It's just a job!"

Thanks, Rat, that really shows it. I totally agree about the wacom pen, you really need it to be able to draw. Must do something like this as well, some day.
There's one thing that struck me on second glance; the panel with the three windows in the paint-added version.... see for yourself.

I like both images the final image is lively and fun. I think you could take the terragen image much further before moving on to post.  But I completely agree with your sentiments. The challenge for me is too achieve a beautiful image with as little post as possible but each to their own and in the end it's the image that counts.

It's an excellent, and fun, composition
