Krava; I'd like you to desaturate that image and check the lighting and values.. I think you'll agree with me that you can do much better - you already have.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Myeah, desaturate. Nice pics though. Is it just coincidence that it looks like a Illithid/squid-thing as the Death Knight also does?

Aether is the prime Element present in all things, providing space, connection and balance for all Elements to exist.

Ahh, yes i guess i can.

Why is saturation so important? for depth perception? and how do i improve it? more deep shadows and highlights?

I mean i can see that he is little flat on the shoulder plates. and fire is bad even more desaturated.

hmm will check some more tutorials...

*edit* ahh, i see, i didn't quite understand saturation hmm will check more tut's *edit*

I am trying to finish rather quickly these last pictures though *sigh*


Squid? hmm, yeah it turned looking interesting. I am trying to make them non human while still lookng like knights...

Desaturation shows you exactly what tonal values you're using. A good range of values will go a long way in creating depth in an image.

A few ways you could've achieved this, would've been to, say, make the armour plates of much higher contrast, or to use the sword as the only light source, so the directional lighting would've made it a lot more strong, contrasting and overall appealing. If you want, I can make a quick sketch based on your art, to show you what I mean.

not being much of an artist.. i really really really.. like that idea of using the fahrenheit as the only light source..
If you can do that Krava for a future version that would be awesome :)

For everyone else: I complimented that legend that is my... erm... how do you call someone that lives in the same country as you do? Let's just say that we both rock. But he does more.

Yeah, me too. It's not I don't like it, it's just that I'm afraid that the administrators don't like it that's all. I know 4 languages other that English anyways.
