ABANDONED HIDEOUT

@Aumes Love the atmosphere studies. Got to do a few like this myself. Never tried it.

@Yusuf Zmirlin Make yourself comfortable man! Thx for posting! That is a really cool design you got there. I love it, its somethings you don't see around when it comes to goblins. I did a really quick paint over, hope its ok with you. Also there's a few things i guess i can give you as an advice.
-Keep in mind that Face in not as shiny as the reflections of the armor. If its overall value is too bright - itll look like its produce light itself which is not realistic. try to divide materials, right now the goblin looks made out of same material. Think more about materials the objects are made from. What is skin, what is metal, cloth etc.
- Balance soft and hard edges. Right now edges on your design are too soft all over the place, it makes the goblin flat and blurry. Try using a hard edge brush with less pressure - opacity sensitivity to get more solid tones - now its a little bit muddy.
- don't go crazy with the details in shadow. Shadow - is an area blocked from light, thats why we cant see to much there. we see light, not contours objects etc. No light - no details.
- keep in mind the direction of light! Overall really cool design man, looking forward to see more from you!

Hope itll help a little.




@art44 Nice to see that you made some changes to the piece you let me crit. You got a story going in that work, wich is awesome, many artists lack that thing. Dont forget about junk and things like taht, our planet is not too clean if it comes to the places like the one on your pic.

@JyonnyNovice Looks better man! You used a reference for this one? If ton - give it a shot. Its hard to do something from scratch if you dont have enough info 'bout the object stored in your head. Try to use a reference, then close it and try to repeat from head. Itll suck. Repeat the process until its beautiful XD I guess the eye sockets got a little wierd form.

did one more costume study this night
