Damn those gemstones are OUTSTANDING!!!!!

The textual description of this image tells us that it is a giant's jewel box,
however, there is nothing in the image itself that "tells" us that without
reading the description.

Perhaps a nit, but the wouldn't the necklaces hanging from the peg have sagged
a bit so they're not perfectly circular? Even with a thick metal thread, there
would be some flexibility.

Too verbose in your text.
Also sound off-topic to me.

Really enjoyed learning the techniques you used for the gemstones and pearls.

I like the object, I am not sure what it is, on the right 
with the gold chain best.  Also nice job with the 
copyright note.  For improvement I suggest trying a wood 
grain texture for the walls.

From houston.graphics@iname.com:
I like the gems, and the necklace in front.  I don't like the wood texture
of the box, it's too reflective.

There doesn't seem to be anything to suggest this is a Giants jewelry box,
maybe if there were an object of normal size it would look more like "Land
of the Giants".

Good concept.

From clem@dhol.com:
The modelling isn't bad, but the composition needs work.  
The gold texture works pretty well, as do the cut stones.  
The black opal has "pigments", but it needs 
"iridescence", as do the pearls to a lesser degree. The 
box detracts from the scene.  The reflectivity idea is ok, 
but the walls really need some proper wood or other 
texturing under the reflections. I like the chains.  Some 
sort of satin cushion (satin for the reflections) in the 
bottom of the box would help both the appearance and 
the internal logic of the image.

From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au:
A well done and visually interesting image - the jewels in particular are
great - but I don't see what makes this a giant's jewelbx rather than an
ordinary
one, so the connection to topic seems very vague. A velvet floor instead of
a shiny one would have been a nice touch.

some of the effects described seem not to make it through compression, or
