Looks great ay! Not too sure on what you could improve on really. I have no real problems about it. The camera angle might be a slight bit too low maybe? - Might be cool to see what he's standing on aswell. I love the design of the character though, he looks really cool
So yeah cant really think of much else - hope that does somethign for ya |

Well, Odin is walking through a passageway in an underground cavern...descending deeper and deeper into the underground network of caves. I need help on getting Odin himself to fit better into the picture and look...well, more realistic. |

agreed, looks like it's coming along very nicely, think he'd work a little better if you lost the orange on his arms, if you made the skintone the same as the face, only a more muted darker version of that colouration, maybe with slight orange highlights rather than the full on look it has, be more realistic if the muscles were toned down too, less bulky if you know what i mean, looks fantastic though |

background is the only thing I have a problem with...too bright and busy it draws focus from Odin...looks more like a firestorm to me than caves. _________________ wika |

i find myself looking at the explosion right above his head, rather than the figure himself. |

I agree with what the others said. Especially that it looks fantastic.
And that all parts of the image are rendered as if they deserve the same amount of attention.
Kinda looks as if he has wings.
The value range for the arms is a bit too big IMO. And I guess one problem is that the figure is centered.
That usually makes images artificial and boring.
Can you move him slightly off center? Just to see if it looks better ... _________________ http://www.conceptworld.org |
