CGMythology's Sketchbook

I think the metallic need more blue since it reflecting the scene and a bit less light in the highlight to adjust for the light level of the scene.I also think that now that feel like i understand better the color choose and direction the ''flame'' was not fire but like ''life force'' in that case i would just use a bit of a softer brush and give it a little more transparency.

One of the cranium on the left could use a little more work if you feel like leaving it.I feel like the teeth take some of the space where you would normally have the gum.I also question the skull color but if my assumption are correct instead to harmonize i would suggest similar thing as what i suggested for the life force  (transparency and edge control).I would also slightly adjust the color to be similar to him if he a ghost.

I would also suggest to remove some of the smaller shape as i find it can be visually simplified and would create a better flow. What i also suggest is to add some kind of ring to is finger from which he harness the soul with if he not a ghost.

The hair does not feel wet but maybe he a ghost and that why he doesn't get wet he look like one to a certain degree.

So for a POV here what i did.

Just did a small crop to reduce the noise on the lower part also crop the tower so you don't have so many roof creating unintentional directional focus that lead the eye out the composition how i avoid that is by cropping the middle tower roof you get a visual line that flow toward is head instead

I felt the feet where just taking away from the weightlessness i felt was appropriate for the piece so i crop the bottom a little bit.

I think cropping a bit help get that magic the gathering feeling so thing feel not so vertical

I remove some of the skull because i felt you did not needed as many and it help the asymmetry i think was part of the challenge gave to you previously.

Anyways those are more suggestion and observation i know it late to make change.
