Main thread is back in my Workshop Nova.

The right side is ew for the first and second. The overly excessive details on the first one, and the overly large gear mask for both. But whatever. Also, it's my first time working with a real-life type of render. I cropped it a bit for 2 versions iirc, but not sure if it's good. Bleh.

There's a lot going on here, but I like the atmosphere. Original stock/render?

They're all from your 800mb thread except the fleur de lis stuff in V1 and V2.

Also, bump.

Oh dang, didn't recognize that one haha. You worked in some really nice blending, I assumed it was a stock to begin with. V4 works best, imo.

xD

 

i feel kind of conflicted

i have like somewhat consistency

but i don't have proper knowledge, just mess with effects and all

and every time, i get something right and something wrong, and then the next time, it's like flipped xD

 

Any parts to work on?

First off, don't use THAT many versions.  This is solely my opinion, but altering one piece to Hell really does hardly any good.  Sure you'll have improved one piece but you should put the mistakes you corrected and what you've learned to good use on a fresh canvas, nom saiyan?  It'll help better your skill.  Unless it's a WIP but I assume this was not.

 

All that aside, it's obviously a nice show of blending skill, but it lacks something to make it interesting.  Not to say it's completely boring but it's somewhat..bland.  The lack of vibrancy diminishes the interest for me.  Also, the lighting brings down the quality of the piece.  Not quality as JPEG vs. PNG, but more of how off it seems.  I plan to outline some points I'm talking about later, but it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm tired as fuck.

 

It is pretty well done though, and I like your concept for sure.

 

KIU.
