I'm probably going to come back to this one; I like the basic idea and the composition but it needs... something. I've been poking at this one on and off for the past couple of days, though, and I'm kinda sick of it for the moment.

Ropes, scaffolding, and girders ?

I agree; it is cool, love the greens but that sky is a bit empty. Crescent moon? Happy balloon skull? The lower left corner feels a little empty, too. Otherwise very nifty.

Less sky, house at a stronger rake?

I really like this one but the only thing that strikes me is that the figure is a bit too small. Or maybe the focus needs to be drawn more, somehow, to the action (craftsmanship) taking place? At any rate, I like the composition and overall feel quite a lot.

I have a whole bunch of theme-diggin' ideas for this one. Remind me to talk to you about it when I finally get home!

I think the windows on the face of the building may need to be rethought somehow. To me, it seems they're drawing the focus away from where it should be.

Ooh. Peg. Conducive to the ideas I brought up earlier: exploit this, don't fix it. Fill the windows with something that advances that thematic stuff we were discussing. Radio transceivers, or a glimpse of a pirate studio offering FREE PORN TO THE MASSES, or an femme-urb-fant version of the Dr. Strangelove war-room map or something.

Actually, I quite like this one compositionally...
