This is my first attempt at making a 3D image entirely in photoshop. Like most of my art this has been created so far using the selection tool rather than the paintbrush.

The image

I plan on having greater cloud density so that I may better incorporate sun streaks over the ocean. I also plan on finishing that beetle on the top as an etching in the headstone of the arch. I also plan on incorpating alot of minor elements to add minor clutter to the foreground and extreme clutter towards the ocean.

I need to learn to draw so that I may add some egyptian like paintings onto the column.

What do you guys think? What advise can you offer?

Nice details!

The bottom of the Pillar looks very Non-3D-ish and the shadow seems to be going the wrong way.. imo

The Sky is very well done.. but since this is WIP .. its pretty empty and stuff..

What is this, over 2 megs? Please scale it down a bit, I personally don't want to see every single original pixel. It's bad form

you know what a 3d image made in photoshop is called?

a painting. a well rendered one.

I would say that the brick texture looks pretty un-interesting. It needs more character, its too uniform. The texturing on the pillar is alright, but it doesn't look very 3d...One thing I do love is the top piece of the pillar, that's just beautiful. Also you did a great job on the clouds. All in all its a good start, but definately still needs alot of work.
