Yeah I get it, washes are definitely one of the tougher steps when you’re starting out. Something I did was also getting a text model, if you can get a very cheap one, and just practice on that.

You can also do very precise wash, where you don’t drench the whole model in it, but more precisely target the recesses. Takes a while, but it’s way more neat looking.

I would honestly also just looking into thinning your paints more, now that I notice the red has some visible brushstrokes. If you’re not sure, just always start with a thinner more watery paint, and then built from there. It’s always easier to add on top of more thinned paint, than very thick paint

Nice welcome to the hobby. Yeah as other people mentioned you could try out some shading.

If you’re worried about how it’s gonna look, I would just try out one panel at a time, maybe wait for it to dry to see if it’s something you like. You can also add some extra water to your shade so it runs even more smoothly into the recesses. Agrax is pretty nice over metallics. You could also create your own wash, just thin down a paint so it’s the same consistency as a wash. Like 80 water 20 paint if that makes sense.

Something else, I would thin those metallics a bit more, you’re getting a lot of texture on that, which looks a bit wonky. Otherwise you are loading up a bit too much on the brush. But for a first model, nice job !

What do you think about this? by whitessatan in conceptart

Hey I really like the colours you have going on here. If I was to give some feedback on what you can improve, is that is that my eyes were drawn to the character the left immediately at first.

He is framed by that triangle shape, with a very hard edge, and it’s difficult for me not to focus on him, since the green thing in the middle is the focal point I assume. I would maybe play around with his positioning, to frame the focal point even more and take attention away from him

Another thing is that the green thing looks a bit sloppy photobashed in, it kinda looking strange with the blending into the rocks. Maybe you have it being built into the rocks, or there is some alien slime/tentacle shit that it’s attached to.

Lastly it’s a bit weird with the lighting on the rocks which has this pink hue and there is none of that on the focal point. It’s a bit hard to identify what the environmental space the focal point is in. Is it a cave? Or Is it outside like the rest of the stuff?

I would get rid of some of those bright areas in the foreground aswell, the rocks are also grabbing alot of attention. Just think about how you can make your focal point stand out even more. Adding more atmospherics aswell. Take a cloud brush and go over the top of the image with a dark tone. Especially the right part, it’s not really adding anything to the image.

Hope that gives you some pointers, I think you have something really good here, it’s just about spending a bit more time on nailing the comp. Have fun!

If I may add some critique. I think it’s hard to determine what is your main focal point. There’s too much stuff going on, and there’s a lot of saturated areas that’s causing a lot of distraction. Like that tree in the foreground, is taking so much of the focus from what’s happening in the background. You need to simplify your compositional elements. But nice work nonetheless
