Darkiste: ya just gotta make it read, thats the biggest stickin point ;)
Hobbit: i really appreciate you taking the time for paintover my dude, I think my head is coming to terms with what i need to do to make an image read. I spent a few hours on this trying to think of values only and not rendering. I tried to be logical about every value choice, so for instance:
Dark pants, vs smoke
Smoke VS silhouette of blade
light feather necklace vs dark sky
etc. etc.
I cheated a bit for some rim light on the back of the hair, its weird i feel like it almost has a noire feel to it, which i'd assume is a good thing. I had seen that back light trick once like the light im putting behind her, its ominous, i quite like it. I'm gonna start doing crap tons of composition studies in my small sketchbook in pen. I hate doing comp studies digitally, i start zooming in and wasting tons of time, with pen i can stay rough but not get carried away. This histogram thing i think i get it, when i check mine I can see how if stuff clumps up too much it can look bad, but again i havent spent a lot of time using it.
But yea, thanks again for the paintover, i hope this is heading in the right direction, i feel like it is at least.
