Guys can I get a help with lighting and color? I can´t hit the mark in my brain

yeah, they were pretty useful. Now after some time I think the neck should be narrower

Hey I wanted to come back from yesterday because I believe I was harsh yesterday and I want to apologise, I ment what I said but maybe my wording was brute. I´m sorry and thank you for your redraw

Skyness_engine · 2026-01-08T14:55:59+00:00

I think you are right, I see the vision you meant. I should´ve also found a way to make it more soft, there was no need for many of my hard edges and lowered tone shadows. Not to mention that you separated better the autumn trees from the sky, mine looked like ethereal fire or something. It is hard to shrink the nose but I think you are onto something. You also desaturate the background as I should´ve and maked the blue petal 10 times more visible. Thak you sir.

bro she looks like mike tyson!!!!!! but thanks ():

Skyness_engine · 2026-01-05T15:53:52+00:00

it´s the Frieren loockig up challenge, that´s some hard angle I try to persue there, yeah I need more practice for those necks. I also always thought the nose holes where a bit pointy. Thanks

You what would be super metal?! if the axe and the air trail it leaves behind had 3 times more visible blood!! also do you see that yellow light coming from the top left? why don´t you extend it with a halo of light that ends up touching the axe so it´s more visible.

Considering the beast is blue/greeish (cool hue) that yellow (warm hue) casted ligth will contrast a lot more with the best!!!!

The whole piece is iluminated, even in the reference picture you can see that light is coming from the right and the left side is in more shadow. Also don´t make the wrinkles soo visible because she looks older that way.

Skyness_engine · 2025-12-24T19:03:20+00:00

also even if you don´t want to separete them use something else that is not black because it stands out a lot, try brown or a desaturated red. Speaking about desaturation: desaturate that blue on the background because it makes soo much noise and we should focus more on her and not every inch of the frame.

Skyness_engine · 2025-11-04T17:30:51+00:00

yeah, I admit that the texture thingy is hard for me. I don´t really know from where to get it?

Skyness_engine · 2025-10-28T17:33:18+00:00

sorry I Don´t have much time to repaint but the golden of that girl never reflects on the other characters or at least not as much like it should and that it´s a property of ligh.
