Really nice. Nice choice of colors(I'm a huge color noob)... and the value is pretty striking in this one. I like the colors/values of this one that you edited in Photoshop... but yeah, it seems like it added some kind of graininess and also killed some of the details of your brushwork.
Is that a stylized/forced perspective look for the ship? I like that kind of stuff, but for some reason I think the fact that the bottom of the ship is not-so-curved kinda irks me... hrmrmrmrmr.
Also it kinda forms a tangent with the horizontalness of the pier/ground... and I think the pier/ground could benefit from not being so horizontal... it could even be some kind of long thing that's starting from the foreground in the lower-right and then recedes into the background, pointing toward the ship.
This was my first real attempt at using painter. I am not super happy with it but, I got it done by the deadline. =/
I don't know much about color so I tried to choose a few colors and go with it wherever it led me. I think the graininess is from the brush, I used conte for most of this. I like the conte brush. =}
Thanks again for the comments, constructive criticism is always appreciated.

Oh, and I have to give a big thank you to Maddie for giving me pointers about color. She knows way more about color than I do. =}
