This is gorgeous. Would you consider submitting it for a coloring book about David Bowie? See my journal for info if interested!

Phenomenal!! I really like the patterns that bridge between the bottom character's hair to the top one's outfit!

I love this picture but, and I hope you will understand that I am not writing this as a criticism, rather a suggestion, if you ever decide to do further work on it, I think you might want to add some element to the crystal ball. While I understand the contrasts of light adding form, a hint of something within the crystal (not Bowie's hand or the more infamous anatomical area) would help to describe the shape of a sphere, rather than a flat plane. It need not fill the space, taking away the light/dark composition, perhaps just a hint of the Escher based staircase, distorted by the crystal's shape, where a sphere would normally have a highlight (or used as an inverse curve, since the passage of light through a transparent, sphere can also cause a lowlight within the sphere itself.) I feel like the style of your picture would merge nicely with that, since it has an Escher like touch in some of the detail already. I hope you aren't offended by my comment, I wouldn't have made it if I didn't think your work wasn't so good already.
(I have to confess, the idea of taking the Escher stairs, which are pictorial distortion in their own right, which were then distorted further for the whole staircase room, and distorting them again to define the curvature of a sphere is so appealing to me, I wish I could still grip tools well enough to draw that myself!

A fitting tribute to a fond childhood memory. The original movie is admittedly very much of its age, but it seems to have ingrained itself lastingly into the psyche, thanks to the inspired visual concepts of Froud / Henson, ludicrously appropriate casting in David Bowie as Jareth (Ziggy Stardust as the Goblin King ? somehow this goes beyond the let's-put-a-rockstar-in-our-family-film trope of which the eighties were so fond of) -- and timeless narrative themes still very much present in today's fan fiction.
Since the actual artwork on display here has been amply and justly lauded in previous comments, I will not elaborate, except to mention that what attracted me first, apart from mere nostalgia, was the sheer effectiveness of the design, all fluidity and misleading symmetry (that, and the marvelously organic swarm of goblins, doing whatever goblins do behind Bowie's back).
