Hello everyone, it's nice to be here again. I start with this environment concept just to get motivation on the real piece =) I'll put agent on the first plan in next post :) wish you all luck in the challenge!

Here's the fast sketch of the agent, nothing special yet, just to start with anything :)

[JGavin]

nice start, looking forward to more!

[ShogunWarrior]

dunno if it's good idea to put some work in it, if I will find any idea of the situation for this agent I will perhaps finish it.

[maykrender]

Ha! got you! You should talk with Marty about this piece, he know all answers to your questions :D

keep it on dude!

[jaras]

All the best in the challenge!

Thx Mayk, Jaras! It's good to feel your approval :) Marty will be happy I suppose;)

Ok, I felt like there should be more space behind him, I'm not happy with this guy (I really don't want him to be sf-agent, but well it just comes that way :) This weekend I'll think about his overall feeling, second person and some special effects...I think it's just too simple (guy with the gun pointing the target), what you think ?

[deftsword]

Hi mant-Raz very nice painting skill, if you put a sniper in there with a laser light pointing at your guy’s head it will bring a new dynamic to this classic scene. Just thinking loud.

[man-to]

well thx deftsword, I'll try it :)

[ajitmenon]

Wow! Very cool! Love the environment too and it feels good flipped!
The lighting/mood is great!

[Levan]

Powodzenia! Polacy gora :D

[loki731]

wow. really nice work. your perspective is pretty tight and the amount of detail just intensifies the mood.

Thanks all, you're very helpful and inspiring. I think I've found an idea to make scene more dynamic. What you think?

here's my new idea, I think it has more story behind :) first one was so dull. I'm pretty happy with the colors for now and I'll try to improve composition in next few days.

[deftsword]

Hi mant-Raz.

I much prefer your first image, since you add the second character it brought a totally new dynamic to the scene. I get the feeling of an agent ready to face, if not a lot, at least a dangerous enemy, to save his partner and the content of the briefcase. I like the evolution of that scene.

still not what I want to achieve with composition, but trying ;) decided to make it less saturated and thought that it would be nice if she's not so frightened. hope the overall idea will be easy to recognized in next step. thanks all!

[daRoz]

Hi mant-raz, I prefer your previous version with that warm colours-it was cool dynamic and your agent was correctly set in the scene. Current sketch is also good but for me all the pic is too streched- I don't know if it was your intention . Maybe try to put colors from last version into the first image. keep posting!

Thx Daroz, here - versions I went through, don't know yet which way to go =) I suppose it will get clear tomorrow.

some ideas...I think that wicked previous perspective was bad idea.

[Ortheza]

Very interesting idea. Hope you will finish on time.

kurde ciekawe:)

It needs much more time, so I decided to finish my first idea. It's gonna be crazy saturday - finishing this piece =)

updates

[Mardukk]

Man... so much struggling and then you are returning to the first idea ..it's quite a loss of time don't you think? ;)

But it looks nice at this moment. Good(fake) luck to you dude ;).

[lordbiernac]

I like the composition :) Hurry up mate, I've spent whole last night finishing my entry and I've succeeded so I'm sure you'll make it :)

[walrus]

Looking good... and I love your current title (I'm in the same place!) One (quick) suggestion: What if you added some red rim light around the main character (from the red thingies behind him) to make him stand out from the background a bit more? But I'm sure you have plenty to do.. so do I! Good luck (we'll both make it!) :thumbsup:

[man-to]

thx Mardukk, Biernac, Walrus. I've bought energy drinks so I hope to succeed :), there's hell lot of work with his hands, I'm currently trying to fix his left hand (I always have problems with hands, need to do some studies in spare time).

walrus: you must be joking, your piece looks like ready!

I decided to drop his left hand (something was wrong with the balance), but I've got no idea what shall he carry now! :) It's just a package for now.

Ok, the car is out, I know it was part of a story but I think those fogs give some breath to the pic and composition is more clear.

Software: Photoshop

I've been sent to find and intercept the package. They said it is important, now I know how important it is. It's hell lot of uranium, it could blow the whole world up. They gave me help - a woman. She knew where to find it and how to get it. There where problems, but finally we've got the cargo and...I think...we've got company...

[MikeTheHunter]

Sweet work mate. It's sometimes a case, that first ideas are the best and we get back to them :) Nice palette, nice compo. It's a bit unclear what the girl is doing - did she drop something or is she signing him to hurry it up? But it's just a minor thing. Other than that - it looks great :) Good idea with dropping the car, it makes nice breathing space.

Good luck :)

[Demitsuri]

Nice mood and atmosphere. Pretty powerfull color palette.
Realy nice work. :thumbsup:
Good luck!

[chilombiano]

agree with the the guys above. and your brush work is very nice too! .

[ajitmenon]

Very nice image! I love the composition and colour palette! I just wish there was a teeny bit more detail here and there!
But great job! Cheers and good luck!

[man-to]

MikeTheHunter: I totally agree with you (about her hand) =) thx
ajitmenon: yeah you're right, details are very time consuming, I did as much as I could to finish on time, thx
Demitsuri, chilombiano: thanks a lot!!

[Irawan]
