hell yeah, the grass is looking great. I'm not sure about those light rays though, they don't look... right. Something? Anyways should be cool when it's done. |

I agree. The grass looks great. You've rendered the metal very well too, I think. The rents and holes in the walls add a lot of character to them. The lightsourcing looks fine to me. You may want to consider getting out of the medium range of value (darken your darks and lighten your lights). To illustrate (ha ha little artist pun) I took the liberty of taking your picture and upping the contrast and decreasing the brightness in it. Again, I think you're doing an excellent job ^_^. Keep up the good work!

Light is good, but I think the sky should change with it, that blue doesn't fit. |

I think it's a great concept!
I notice, however, that you have red light being emitted from underneath the door....but then you don't have any red reflection on the floor in front of the window? I guess I'm assuming that's some sort of window because it's the same color of red that's behind the door.
I think you've got a great opputunity here to play with the lights and shadows coming from different sources ( i.e. - from the sky, and from the window and door)with this pic.
play it up! |

I think this really is a nice painting. I have to be careful because I don't know how far the artist is able to take this painting
(I'm new here so I havent seen his previous work). I must say that it looks like a fantastic piece and hope that the artist takes his time to really polish it up.
The light rays are the most distracting for me. They don't seem to fit.
If one sees light rays it's usually because theres some particals in the air which the light reflects off of. How can he make those light rays more fitting....help.
Also the color of the grass and sky are a bit HYPER. Maybe keeping the saturation pumped only on surfaces that are in direct light and then for the shadows you could use less saturation. I don't know I'm new here but the color just seems to
intense.
nice work, very nice work. This painting has alot of potential.
Drawings solid, now it's all up to the render.

the coloring just doesn't fit with the
lighting, look at that afternoon sky.
How does that fit with the lightrays?
Well whos to say it has to conform
to reality.
Good picture, Nice drawing. |

dude quickly make the sky look like sunset!!!
Since your light rays seem to look like those that might have been sent by the evening sun...
Also I think that the "Attention" thing looks hot too. A dead cyborg would be cool lying on the floor in agony perhaps reaching with his hand... |

I think darker, brown grass and a darker sky may look better. It just seems so happy for an old, abandoned area like that. :) |
