Hi there
That's a cool render! I like the sepia one better, looks more realistic... can we talk about realistic when there are ghosts on the picture? um, well anyway there's a cool feeling on that picture, I like everything very much (composition, textures...), things that I think need some improvement: the glow of the ghosts on the side is too big/strong, the chair and the tubes and that wiry thing on the wall need some more detail to match with the rest of the scene.

Thanks for your comments i'm gone think about it

-for the glow it's simple i just forgot to enable a light in the render "that" (or "what" i don't remember) is not necessary anymore

- for the details of the different element, i don't know what i'm going to improve but i'm working on it

I hope more comments will come

i agree with cocoknight, the sepia looks more realistic, maybe the ghost should not be that transparant, a bit of light scattering? and the headglow less massive?

just slight suggestions....

realy great image!

I actually like the first one in blue better. The edges are softer and it has a cooler, creepier feel to it. Also the glow in the face its alot dimmer in the first one. I think that this is better becasue it makes it seem like something that you would not notice right away or just out of the corner of your eye. My only crit is that it would be really neat if the glow could fill more of the draped mesh making the ghost, almost like a gradient moving downwards. BTW the mesh of the draping outline is awesome. Nice Job :thumbsup:

Good job. You are tapping into what cg does best in my opinion: the sublime and the cold. Nice composition and each color treatment has its own feel. I do like the sepia one though.
