Very nice piece of work. Personally i think would be great to see that creature in a resisting pose instead of standing there and got beaten up. May be its just me :D haha..

Anyway i like this piece of work :)

glad you guys liked it. I totally agree with the crits, I was addmitedly rushing to get it all together. Been putting together some images to show what is probably a little more difficult to see.

Heres the head in Z-Brush

The head close up rendered, (I didn't bother cleaning it up cus sadly it's hard to see in the final.)

It looks great! Wonderful work with armor and cloth.
The only crit is that the background could maybe need a wee bit blurring because now there's so much contrast going on.

What a nice Work! Modeling, shader, render... Congratulation!

In my mind, an other camera framing will be better than this, and i'm agree the background should be a little more blured... but very nice picture!

Nice work - very complete scene and very dynamic poses.

Great to see your stuff up here man. I was really curious about this piece and I think that even with all the deadline issues you did a solid piece of work.

For crits I just think the overall picture has too much information, namely the background which makes the composition hard to read. Also I really like the pose on your paladin but believe the left hand along with shield straps should actualy be aligned with the shield itself but I might be wrong...

Love the colors scheme and overall feel :thumbsup:

Now KEEP IT UP!!!:twisted:

Great work Jesse! The armor and cloth are fantastic. I would have to agree that the composition is a bit too busy. The characters themselves, and their poses are very strong. Keep it up!
