The mech piece is really impressive, Muzzoid. Good work. I also like the soft shading on the hood of the second one. (Little communist riding hood?)

OK the main thing that jumped out at me was the shadow direction, which didn't seem to match the lighting setup you have. Also the guy doesn't quite appear to be standing directly in front of the mech. In the image below, I've traced the shadow direction which seems to come from nowhere (pink dotted line).



Shadows on the ground plane must radiate from a certain point on the ground plane. This point is directly below the light source, and I call it the Shadow Root (SR). So if we put the Shadow root into your scene, the shadow should be like this, directly under the mech's head, between its feet:



As you can see, this magnifies the problem of the human figure's position somewhat. He doesn't appear to be standing directly in front of the mech, so a bit of shuffling is in order.



Here I've moved the human down and to the right a bit so he appears to be standing more directly in front of the mech and his new shadow works with your original planned composition. The lines of the mech's head even point more directly at the human now.
If you want to read more about the Shadow Root (properly called the Normal Point), you should check out my 3-part blog article on it Grin

The Shadow Root: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

Hope you find all this helpful Bingbong

now that is sweet. I love what you've done with the lighting. Even the "girls" neon is throwing some lovely subtle tones on the roadway. Nice work man Smiley

Cheers dude, the help was appreciated.

I'm starting up a 100 speedpaints in 100 days.

Here be the first 2, both have nudity so I'm just linking them

*I've embedded your images.. see my post below - chluaid

my rules are as follows.
*I must produce at least 100 artworks in 100 days.
*I must try and keep it at a consistent rate lest i burn out.(ie, if I'm too busy i need to catch up on the ones i missed).
*EVERY try must push myself.
*Each try must take more than 30 min to be counted.
*You guys are to rat me out if i don't keep my word.

#1 40 min


#2 30 min


Enjoy.

Nice skin tone in both. 100 speedpaints in 100 days, that's quite a commitment Shocked
btw, nudity is allowed on the forum.. only if it's of a provocatively sexual nature that we prefer them to be linked.
