Character: sink with water things

[XerC]

Hi!
Well... The idea is cool. I like it, as well as the "elementals'" poses. But this work doesn't really convince me in a lot of points.
The lightning is rather poor. I can spot neither shadows nor real highlights. You should really work on this. If you're not too experienced concerning lightning, just try the three-point-lightning. It's however, better than not caring about lighning and shadowing anyway.
This leads to the next point: the image is flat. It's extremely flat. Have a look at the tap, it could as well be mapped on a single polygon :surprised If you had invested some more time in the lightning this would not have happened, I guess...
Next point: textures and materials: well it's kind of nonsens to talk about textures -I can spot a single one in the whole scene. :hmm: Try to improve your scene by adding some irregularities through textures. Everthing is neat and clean; there are not even waterspots...
Next: if those creatures consist of water then why are they blue and solid? I mean, they should be transparent and colorless!
Well and the last thing is the proportions. The tap looks a bit lost there... :shrug: Make it larger ;)

That's all I can see. I hope you accept this criticism and it helps you. Hope I didn't sound too harsh ;)

Greetings,
XerC

Hello XerC, no you were not too harsh at all. When there`s something wrong It needs to be said. Mostly I am aware of those facts you said. No, I am not "too" expirienced in lightning (:p ) as you can probably see.

water is blue because I tried to gain some contrast compared to sink and wall, but I`ll try to do something to those things you mentioned.

Actually the tap was larger before but it looked so freaking funny that I shrunk it to that size. Probably shrunk it too much :applause:

Anyway, thanks for feedback!
