The vector art itself is pretty good, although you could use some precision on the bubbly hose things, and shading on the smooth ones.

The background is absolutely horrible. You should either vectorize that very low-res pic, or replace it altogether with a simpler concept.
 
hmz, the vector is nice, although the left part of the hose and the smaller left upper hose are in desperate need of attention. between the 2 hoses on the right is also something weird.

& yeah, the background stinks.
 
I'd say if you worked on the corrugated hoses a bit and changed that terrible background you'd have something there....
 
Some parts of that picture are incredibly well made, others kind of scetchy which is sad. With a few corrections this could be 'great'.
 
Ok I redid the background and did some tweaks here and there. The old background was an afterthought which I added at the last moment

Now if you've got a high res copy - say 1280x1024 (i think its that) we'd be rolling. In fact as i've now got dual monitors if you could double up the background it'd be amazing! (2560x1024)

Well done mate - thats some fine vectorising :p
 
Looks better now, with the new background.

But what is that brown thing on the background on the left? Looks like a giant poop.
 
God damn you and the crappy filters, Lich!






Edit: removed a brainfart of my own...
Edit: corrected a typo. God...
 
no no no, thats just... wrong.

That filter should be buried deep, deeep down with the rest of those glass ripple and smear stuff
 
That's because it hides what's underneath. Thats not the artist way to go (well of course that depends). I know I do tend to use stuff like that too to "fill out the blanks", but if you think it needs a dash of realism, shouldn't he increase the level of detail rather than decrease it?

What I wanted to say was that just because the later is easier to achieve, it does not always bring extra value to the finished product.

Don't want to be mean or anything. Just spilling
