This is quite a jaw-dropping image, Delaney and yes, I agree, Marco is one of those who will always support his fellow Artists, a very nice person too. An excellent atmosphere that blends perfectly with their pose and your lighting as well. WOW!

Beautiful image and lighting..nicely done!!

Yes, there are always at least two sides to any relationship story. I saw the promo for this guy too and had a look at her other characters. Quite unique.. I was tempted. Well what do I see here? I see that you planned this one out in advance as there is a blue point light coming from her left hand where the postwork flame is. And a second orange/yellow from the candles. Gotta be a filler in there too. So I think you got your main objective with lighting. There is a bright splash across the middle and a natural fade, especially towards the top. The characters look like they are posed for a portrait... a family portrait with a difference, but a family portrait none-the-less. This is a proud, even hauty group. The framing is richly dark to compliment the image. Perhaps a very thin pale key line around the image to seperate a bit from the frame would have popped it a bit but that is just me and overall it is a gorgeous effect.

love the character choices..they are exceptional. The lighting is beautiful I think. Excellent work!

Very beautiful image my dear, gorgeous characters, lighting and outfits. Very sweet dedication for a wonderful artist, and friend! Very well done!

Excellent portraiture. Great work on the lighting, nice job on multiple sources. Texture details came out well and nice framing.

stunning....I love the overall colour scheme and the lights you have chosen because of all of the triangles in this picture there is a great strength to the image I do feel however that the top left negative space is not quite right I can see what you have done an that the background nooks are nicely placed within the framing but what has happened is that you tend to see the candles on the left almost as prominently as the characters themselves, I want those to be secondary if the trio were sightly closer and a little more central your eye would catch their heads first as it reads this image.....now I am nitpicking here and this is a damn fine image great image well done Carl ps. and please let me know what that wild outfit is on the right hand girl...hot hot hot

Really nice, dramatic lighting on the figures I have to say. :)!!

the light in this Delaney is beyond fabulous, along with the superb rendering. yes Marco is a wonderful friend and a most amazing artist like yourself. the atmosphere is also an amazing thing to behold here..

Oops, fixed the candles. :)

~Well thank you Delaney! Let me say that you are a wonderful friend in this community too with your many thoughtful and helpful comments to other artists. I always look to your comments for an insightful critique. And I will say this too, I didn't look at ebots but was just scanning the gallery when your thumb caught my eye....I didn't even see the title...and even when I clicked on the image was so caught up in studying these three marvelous characters that I still didn't see the dedi...lol. When I finally drug my eyes from the image and started reading the text, it was a real nice surprise! :) I really like this type of scene with a kind of movie poster posing (kudos to pixeluna for that marvelous set). Each of them in their own way reach out and grab you! This is a bit more than I usually put in a comment, but it wouldn't be a ~Marco~ comment if I didn't add...fantastic characters and marvelous light! Well done!~ ~Marco~

I say, Delaney, What a trio! You've built up a great picture there. The character are really fantastic, I like the expression and poses. Your work on the lightning is subtle. And the render is very good too. Well done,my friend! Odile
