This is the remains of a pillow I used as a baby. I tried to pay particular attention the worn look of the material.

Your work in making the pillow appear worn has really paid off- the textures are very distinct. I'm impressed by the butterflies- they look like a pattern in the worn pillow instead of a doodle on top of well sketched fabric- good job! This is a very good piece and the only criticism I can think of is that the pillow is outlined darkly, even in the light parts. It could be shadows, but I feel like it detracts from how realistic the pillow looks. That's all I could find- everything else is very well done. Congratulations, this is a great piece!

wow i really like. the shadding in the pillow itself gave a very distinct worn look but also very textured and realistic. nice job on the detailing/ pattern the pattern looks worn but also very on the pillow not just on the paper. all and all very good piece

I like this alot. The pillow really seems to be worn out and i am able to tell that it a little old.

your shading is wonderful! you were able to convey the texture of the pillow very well in your work. the extra stitches stick out a bit, and maybe could have been drawn to move with the fabric a little more. overall this is a really great piece!
