very nice val. i saw that you had a devart, so i browsed along. awesome work. you could also check my gallery out (although i must warn you, these are uber old pieces -- like 5 years ago? haven't been posting to devart in a while e.
this is quincy btw, "flip-girl + fan-boy" if my name doesn't ring a bell. )
The design is nice. It didn't remind me of charlie and the chocolate factory, but I don't associate it with the victorian era either. Very colourful collage of stuff and nice arrangements with a good solid straightforward composition.
crits: The background is too dark. There isn't enough contrast to distinguish the form of the gent. It's not there immediately, but you get it after a while.
The list of dates are too dark as well. They blend in with the background too much and don't have enough contrast. This matters if you didn't use a pantone guide, as the printing might not get the colours correctly and you have issues with it being unreadable.
