If they are leather, then I could see the use of the bright highlights in the folds of the knees, but if they are cotton, then you could keep the values a little bit closer together while changing the hues slightly (like what you have on the thigh area). What material is the jacket?
The lighting is also a quite inconsistent. It seems like it's coming from her left (according to the face, pants, and jacket...but on the breast armor, it seems to be coming from above. On her right arm, there seems to be bounce light, but there's none on the jacket covering her torso on that side or the right leg.
Hope this helps a little and keep up the good work!
Thanks for the crit man! Now that you talk, yeah i see those issues, i was too much concentrated on finishing the concept that i forgot to address those essential issues.
The pants are a mixture of jeans with khaki, the jacket and gloves is like a velvet with some type of robust material, slightly paddled. Maybe i should get rid of the harsh folds on the pants and make them softer as in the khakis, regarding the leather of the belt maybe, saturate a little bit on the right side.
The colour scheme was an image i found in characterdesigns of an asian lady with a gun, a strong light source from the right side, and added a left side rim light yet it´s inconsistent through out the model.
Maybe i should mimic the light of the photoref, bearing in mind that hers is like a corpet and the girl on the concept is more of a metal breastplate.
I was needing some fresh eyes to see the issues, thanks man!! I´ll go the extra mile with this piece.
Do you have any tips for rendering, till now i´m still struggling with rendering.
Cheers!
