What the heck is with this piece of crap you ask?!? Well, 1. I worked on it at night, tired, got used to it didn't realize how crap it is... next day I had the "revelation"... WOW! Anyway, so what went wrong with it is, I'm doing a lot of experimentation and here I used a layer to darken the thing to add "shadow" and then paint with light, well that failed miserably. Also I didn't follow the light scheme from the reference, I wanted to take a reference and see if I can make my own light... epic fail. Anyway............
Thanks for checking ot my sb :) Most of your stuff looks too flat. My advice for you would be to focus on primary geometric shapes- try to paint them every morning for warm-up.
Still, don't give up ! :D
