Komodo's sketchbook

The foot is hard to read and the leg and the rock kind of blend together visually due to the strong rim light.I don't understand the choose of him wearing armor on is feet since he doesn't seem to wear armor anywhere else. That why i think that make it hard to read as a foot as it doesn't harmonize with the rest of the design. If you had let say replace the bandage with a gauntlet it would have been easier to read as a foot because now you can relate to other piece of armor.

Also remember that when block thing out it might look like thing read but as you add detail you might loose that readablity so remember to zoom in and out to see if what you want to read also read at a small scale.

The color of the light on the metal and elsewhere that light shine should be red orange yellow since it mostly lit by the fire source. Also you did not paint the shadow of one of the fire pole on the right side like you did in the thumbnail but not in the final .

Using a grey color for the rock would probably help get a better read using the idea of using a saturated color against a desatured color help separate element. You could also separate element by temperature like warm color against cold color.

For the pose i suppose he taking this pose so that if the sword fall it will make noise and wake him up otherwise i would find it othwuse hard to justify because you would want the sword to be where it easy to take it out that just an observation on the pose maybe you can elaborate if my observation was correct.

Also be careful with how you choose to make fold you want thing to be readable specially where thing overlap.

I also like the idea of something lurking and how the tree branch help move the eye in that color test but i think you also did a good job with how you use contrast to move the eye where it as to be.

That all i got for you.

Perfection is unmeasurable therefor it impossible to reach it.
