hi guys.
just wanna ask you about the light. Is it good ? I think that this is not enough...but don't know what to correct.
And about depth... 8-) no depth , why ?

hm, looks great, but the right leg must be darker...

and the back 2 than is it good

Looks absolutely awesome man!!!

I'm thinkin Final Fantasy... and picturing this desolate moonscape in the background, with a couple of darkred setting suns. (hmmmm saw Final Fantasy for the first time here the other day, so it might have clouded my judgement a wee bit!!!)

Couple of sugestions... I would really want to see some colour in the light your casting... it would help with the flatness of the drawing that your are questioning yourself!! More contrast... agree with ogreeye, the back and this things "LEFT" leg, the one behind, should be darker... hmmm or should it? Theres something about it that says tension, if this is caused by fog or smoke!! I've seen this way of doing the back leg or arm with Feng Zhu, where it works extremely well, but I very much doubt the succes, if you are to add a background to the scene... But the back just showing under the left arm should definately be darker! Then I would pick out surden spots where you emagine the armour to have deeper openings, and make them darker as well. The lack of contrast seem to me to be your biggest problem (Its working in the shoulder region though!!!)

Otherwise, I am just dying to see where you'll take it from here... It looks stunning!!!

Hey that is awsome looking!! Do you have a portfolio online... you should post this in the mech thread in the finished gallery!!

I love the idea and the look, but I don't think you spent enough time on the leg and the gun bringing out the shadows and stuff, because they look somewhat flat (or you may have spent to much time-either way)

I'd put more fog over the gun to draw it more towards the back wher the left leg is.

Alexei Samokhin · Posted: Fri Jan 25, 2002 1:03 am

yeah , i know about low detail on the gun. But now problems not in it. :-)
problems is - how to draw background ?? :-))))) I did't created any layers.. shit :-)

Xyster21 · Posted: Fri Jan 25, 2002 1:19 am

I like it but the wires/tubes (?) connecting to the gun just seem really flat and more up front than the left leg. but damn skippy tho on the whole thing itself!

back ground, easy one, add a few plant like things to the forground & put some vaguqe branch like shadowy shapes in the fog of the background.....

nice one dude...
left leg looks odd with higlight..
try hiding it just to see what you think...
to me it makes from the pelvis to the knee
look like its lacking depth..
a bit of a blured left leg might go down well.

thgumbs up on the well designed mech
and composition.
