Need some help!

[RyanScott]

Hey Ryan. First thing I think this is a really nice start; love the colours, setting and design.

I did a paintover, mostly because I thought it would be fun to play with this more than you needing help...and it was! :) I basically just tweaked everything to be "more" of what you already have in the image. The largest thing I tweaked was the comp...to make use of the diagonals you had in the background more and add a bit more depth with some additional foreground rocks. I pumped up the colour overall, and lightened the background to accentuate the critter silhouette and depth. I also tried to accentuate the silhouette of the critter in a few small place to curve and flow with the comp a bit more. Added a bit of bounce and reflective light on the critter as well...

I did a gif anim. of the layers I used but because it's gif the colours come out a bit blocky so I included a final image below that. Hope that helps!

Thanks man I appreciate you taking the time to do that.It did help a lot. I like composition change that you did,and adding the depth. Now lets see what i can do with the advice, i'm gonna try and spend a lot of time on this one.
