In your original post, you mention various things and ask "is this correct"? Personally, I wouldn't look at it that way. There's no "right" or "wrong" way to use all these tools and settings – it's all about establishing your own style and figuring out what looks good to you.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with asking for feedback. Just keep in mind that it's okay to do things your way, even if that differs from someone else's.

From what I see, you're making a really good start. That render is fantastic!

Thankyou appreciate it :)

So how did I do this time??? increased exposure to 12.25, lowered set gloss values but didnt add grime (will add it into story that one of the minotaurs has OCD and cleans fairly regularly :P)

I used Dzfires Torch contruction kit and replace each and every torch in the existing merlins labyrinth set, that completely redid the lighting, added DOF and tilted camera while adjusting poses according to new camera angle.

Tried to do post work in Photoshop but failed misearably also whatever auto tune I did messed up big time ( increased brightness effed up color etc) so I just resized it by half from 2160p to 1080p using that resample sharpen setting.

The original 2160p image is here
