Future of 1850 digital painting CCM261

[JeffBartzis]

Hey Jordan,

This is pretty neat, just a couple things that stand out for me.
The perspective of the car doesn't really line up all too well with the buildings in the background. and some of the details on the guy's backpack are hard to make out in my head, I would suggest to spend a little more time defining the shapes and how light reacts to them, and I would change up the brushes to 'sharper' ones for things which you want to have more detail on them.
Anyhow, i hope I helped.

Thanks for the comments, Jeff. Now that you mention it, the perspective issue is very noticeable. I realized that it wasn't perfect to begin with but I see now that is indeed very off. I'll go back and see if I can correct it.

nice work,

other than the mentioned perspective issues I think it is a good first stab at a digital painting.

Good job and keep practicing.

hey, nice work. i really like the concept behind the piece. however sharper brush edges would help indeed. maybe add more clutter as well here and there. it just looks a bit simple right now, but i'm sure it will come together once you add details. :thumbsup:

Alright, correcting perspective, sharper brushes and clutter seems to be the consensus. Thanks guys, I appreciate your help. I was also wondering if anyone was going to comment on the sky, I'm not sure I like it but I'm not sure what I should do...

I saw this one when you were making it, and I thought the colors you used were awesome. It gives it that dark and creepy feeling.

as for the sky, perhaps if you added some slight impressions of clouds maybe, just like subtle shading

remember, its just a detail thing really.. you want to be able to translate your message through to the veiwer so the types of details you begin to add in will have to compensate for that. we just need to be able to see more clearly whats happening in the picture. so make sure you don't make the sky take over with the details, unless thats something important.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll see if I can sharpen up the image as a whole using all of your advice.

That's a very nice digital painting. However I do have to agree that the perspective with the car is a bit off. I also think that the middle ground (car) is standing out more than the foreground (character), and if that's what your intentions were that would be great. If not, then I would suggest making your forground stand out more by using sharper brushes and more detail on what I think of the back of the character is a jet pack of some sort.
