looking for critique for future images - beetlejuice - 03-06-2013

hey guys, long time reader, first time typer to these forums, so hopefully im in the right place!

here is one of my newer images that i posted a few days ago and was hoping i could get some critique on this for next time i draw an image similar to this, listing what techniques i could use and how would i apply them.

here is the image of a rejected angel throw back from the heavens.

First tme I'm making a paintover ^^
It's a very complex lighting you have done here, I just repaint the muscles so they are more connected between them and not just put apart like in a flayed anatomy study and put some shadow. : )
The main thing that I can say is to always stay focus on the major light of your scene and paint everything thinking about value first and then color.

Here you can download the PSD file.


Keep up the good work D5f02ecd

Basically, besides anatomy, give the design some room and don't cut off the image.


I did a critique on livestream for you to hear, I attached the image below.

I'd say that you should add some reflected light from down to his fists-also since wings are not completly behind him -they are spreading-so a bit of light should fall on his arm.
I added light between his feet and spreaded ground light a bit (should actually be more).And some light around the light on his clothes.
