Hi!

so came up with this guy some time ago, and it was my first attempt at painting two light sources, one cool, coming from behind, and one warm, coming to the front, can anyone help me with what i did right/wrong?

feel free to do a paintover or critique what you feel that could be better!

What is the goal of the piece?

Hi, the goal is to show the creature entering a dungeon, the back light was supposed to be outside's daylight, and the warm front light is meant to be torches i guess.
Your lineart is too static and uniform, and it's hard to read the image from the get go because of it.

If you're going to use outlines, make sure that it does it's part to describe the form of the character just as much as the value.
Yo Gabriel,

I livestreamed a critique and some feedback, look up Arthur Rackham, and watch the video here: http://livestre.am/4Idtl

Hey man, can you suggest any other artist with this style?
sorry for the late reply, but i really appreciate your critique, thanks for your attention!

also Psychotime, do you feel i should add lineweight to the drawing?
idk, my inspiration is Moebius, maybe i should work with real paint next time?
