That's awesome work!

This may be old news for y'all, but I recently Stumbled Upon this site that I've found to be a great resource for textures: Texture King

Have fun!

Totally awesome composition! As many have said, you really transformed your intial shot into a much more interesting work. I think your texture bug is contageous...it seems I'm starting to get a fever. And the only cure is more cowbe...I mean textures!

I've avoided the texture bug... You've done well with it. Definitely an improvement on the original.
