moulin rouge before and after

i've redrawn my moulin rouge drawing because i hadn't had the chance to give it to the friend that it was meant for and because i felt i could do it better....
i did the drawing on the left in jenuary 2009.
today, 5 march 2009, i've finished the right one....
now, tell me what you think!
i'm looking forward to reading your answers!!

update: i submitted this for "kick my own @ss" contest.

the category is:traditional art
