i can't really understand the scale of those alliens and their cocoons, are they that enormous to cover half the cliff?

Awesome technical execution, the details on the rocks, the crashed spaceship-like-things and the aliens are amazing. I also love the way you've done the sky, with yellow and blue blending together. The poses are nice too, it's like they are flying with their mysterious alien abilities, very well paced. Awesome piece overall, congrats, and good luck :thumbsup: !

nice model and render i suggest you work more on your story to give it the context that's needed.
The image is good but all the elements alone are great which makes it a bit of a let down. I think if you worked on the composition a little more you could have a really great all togther image. Like it is now though it is very awesome, I just think it could be more.
Great work either way :)

shakes: Thanks man, you always been a great support! :)
Miezis: Yer i sorta wished i can rework my compostion again, it ended up a bit flat when i changed the landscape concept :( i cry after so much work :p ah but anyway i might redo the scene arangement when i find time. Thanks for visiting :thumbsup:
maxspider3000: Thanks man, glade you like it :)
TheCheshireCat: yer i think i did an alright job on the characters hehe :)
snowan: thanks man, glad you like it
sergage: thanks man, seems like a lot of complements, i'm very happy you think this way. there's heaps of room to improve on the composition but sounds great you like it :)
wasriyah: yep indeed :D i wish i had a more soild idea. i guess it's a bit like an adam and eve idea but just mysterious beings instead. I just wanted them to be innocent that's pretty much it :) i agree with your point though.
ndat: yep totally agree, i feel a bit :( when i had to submit it too, it didn't come out like i'd like it to be, i'm happy with individual elements though, but it's really the whole image that counts. Anyway i still got something out of this challenge, it's a learning experience :) thanks for the comments though :thumbsup:

maybe add a wreck of their spaceship in the back.
then you could add a story like they are crashed before the last iceage and to survive they had to live in cocoons, several 10000 years later etc. etc. <--just a example you have so many options to choose with this pic.good luck on your journey :P
