The lighting isn't right, but there was no way I could match the lighting in the backdrop and have her well lit. So science got told to take a hike for art's sake. Shadows aren't strong enough either, because I used mesh lights instead of spots or points. Lots to learn yet about Reality, which is why I'm here I guess, lol.
I like the lighting, think you did a good job of getting it to match the background. I have learned to stay away from point and spot lights and stick with what reality has or my own mesh lights, will save in render time. Since it is morning/evening light, the softer shadows work IMO.
Like the glass in the laterns, well done. My only thing is I would increase the bump on the stone to make it stand out more. love the character.
