None of the items on the table seem to have a shadow nor does the dwarf. The shadows I do see are blocking a clear view of the dwarf. The lighting has been a bit of an issue... But I see what you mean, it's hard to make it look like the inside of an inn. :grins: -I dont see text on the scroll, if intended this way, where are the items used to write on it? Hadn't really thought about that.. good point. - Id say that the scepter looks a bit poor. They were used by royalty, usually richly set with rubies and diamonds. It's supposed to be a mace :Grins: This is a more traditional fantasy pic.... But I may be able to find something better. You could try to get that backwall more sharp, now it gives a wrong impression of focal blur. Its to close to your subject to be that blurry. I've noticed that too.... I'm using the Inner Castle Construction kit for the background and thats the texture that comes natural, I've been working on a better one but I've had scant success.. making a realisitic looking stone wall that tiles well is hard .. for me at any rate. :Grins: "- In those days they had NO glass, but used tin to drink beer and wine from. Again, royalty would have such an item richly set with gems." I think changing the stein to something else would be of little trouble.. but, I'm trying to create an image of a adventurer setting back after a long day.. so probably no jewels. But if that was my goal, yes.. great advice. "- The only thing I can imagine that could be transparent in those days would be Chinese silk, but that was probably first imported in the 15th century when Marc OPolo discovered the far east. So, any transparency would be out of place." As a fantasy world goes I have no idea what their position on glass would be :grins: but I like the idea of a metal stein better... I just used the beer glass in Free Stuff with little modification. Thank you very much for your feedback, however.. it is much appreciated. Anzan
