Description

My new years resolution is to better myself techniquely to produce better images. The past few months have been a lot of fun but I kept doing things I knew well how to make. In this first one, I improved my method to project shadows and have moved from 3 point lighting to more complex schemes (hence the ground bounce light on the belly of the spider). Hope you like it. Your critique and encouragements are allways greatly appreciated.

i like this so much u have a lot of variety in youre drawings maybe the robots would benefit from a more chromylike surface but hey maybe they wouldnt at all either i noticed the gently touches u mentioned u putted in there superduper as allways , but i wonder how a drawing from ure hand would look like after more then a couple of days work lets say like u spend two months r so on it with day by day addings of objects untill we have those 500.000 orcs swarming around ^^ r anything in that amount i geuss what i am just trying to say is i see so much of ure work and what it would be when u start composing all that stuff so u would blow the whole world away by even more stunnishing pics ;-)

I agree! I like your shadows. If you want to study further on lighting and shadows, there is a book out by Jeremy Birn, "Digital Lighting and Rendering." ISBN: 1562059548. Bravo Mr. Vandal.

excellent, my one ctitism would be the mountain in the left background seems to be lit differently than the rest of the scene...IMHO..Are you using fall off with the lights?. It's still an excellent image tho..
