Well this is the full form, I have it custom framed and it's in my parents home in Oregon. I am very passionate in art, and details are my specialty. I work with love and I am proud of my hard effort. The details are so tiny, It's better in person.
When I get back from Oregon I will retake the picture in a higher resolution for a quality print.

Siena Cathedral by *chibigundam is, in a word, impressive. Although it brings other words to mind: overwhelming, rich, detailed, precise, elaborate and ornate. ( Featured by `oedalis )

Without reading your text, I was thinking: is this a photo, is this a drawing,....wait a min...is this a model or full scale??? Then I read the text, GREAT JOB!!!! If your goal is realism I would suggest rethinking the angle though. If you were to size at this Cathedral, is it likely you would be 25 feet in the air? Also, the backdrop, I wouldn't change it, unless it was more realistic, works great the way you took the picture.
