In characters. I have a lot of problems with feet and shoes, also with proportion and foreshortening...and folds in clothing too, so I've been trying to improve on those issues.
 

here's a work related piece.
A mattepainting I did for VIKINGS season 3



The hill behind the boats had modern houses, farm land and wires, so I had to remove all those and make the landscape look natural. I created some concept variations of how it could look first. The bottom image is the approved look and final that made it into the show.

In this shot, the boats were real. But some of my coworkers had shots were they had to add boats digitally.

I used Photoshop for the matte painting and Nuke for the compositing.
