first, thanks for replying


ill try some sort of shop back there, just will have to see what itll turn out to..

not strange you thought it was elves, but its supposed to be orcs maybe it looks more like elves, doesnt really matter..


my teacher actually didnt allow me to use PS, but after some whining and actually tell
him that its as good practice, it was ok..

sucky thing is that i havent got a wacom :|


still need tips for the last person,
and was the picture too dark on your screens ?

There is alot of perspective errors on it, the caracters for ex and the wall.
When u look on the tunnel wall its a bit from the side, but the rest of the wall (outside) is straight.

You haven't really found the "mass" of the caracters, they seem a bit pasted into the pic.

Why not make the water "sparkle" bit to give the pic more magical?

Im sorry about all the bad crit. But hey, its just my opinion, it could be wrong

Good luck!

Something that hasn't been pointed out yet (I don't think, I skimmed fast since I'm hungry sorry) is that the characters seem like they're floating on the scene. Why? Because they lack shadows! Shadows will tie them down in a hurry. And I definitely think you need to put some variations into the chains.

ok
times up for me, actually i got the whole schoolday tomorrow to work on the assignement, but ofcourse: i have to turn in a print of this picture and i can only print out that big (had to be big sized) on the mac's they have.. so, i have to upload a big jpeg, since 55mbs or whatever is way to much to upload wont be able to do much too on a jpeg version at school :P

anyways, im so sick and tired of this pic that im dying.
i did some fast changes, everything sucks. blah
learned lots though



give me wacom!

This is a school assignement that I have to deliever tomorrow.
I've never worked this big before, actually about 3100*something, and I've had way to short time

Anyways, I need some tips:
- I need one last person, what should he be, where should he be, I've gotten blind on the composition long ago.
- What should be inside the castle or whatever it is.
- What should I change

Any c&c would be nice



Btw: I'm so not happy with it

I think a market of some sort would look good in the background.. fruits and stuff. But it seems to be late in the evening, soo maybe all the shopkeepers would have left.. It's a bit too late in the process to change to daylight I belive :P maybe a deserted market?

[Jabberwocky]

Fruit???? During this time period? But I guess the guards do have point ears so anything's possible.

Yeah add a few house or building. Maybe an overhang thing like a smither's place. Add some texture or more texture to the ground in there as well would help. Like pebbles and little rocks and some tuffs of grass.

The closest elf guard's right ear is kind of funny looking might want to pull it up from the head a little like the other evlf's ears.

Otherwise I like it. I like the water and texture on the stone and wood. Good luck on this assignment I understand the pain of those. Just be glad you can do you stuff in PS I can't yet.
