[jlelievre]

Hey Goron; very cool image! :) Is this image from an animation? This character is just scemaing to be animated. :scream:

[phishmann]

wow... very nice environment, very well lit. It definitly has a mood to it.:thumbsup:

[Sleepless]

nice job Goron! You just keep getting better and better (2d too)

Nice work!

I really like the colors, and the "cgcartoonish" look.
Some critiques if I may: ;)
There are some black pixels, (or really dark ones) at the tips of each spike on the characters head, are theese artifacts, or something I didn't notieced?
And IMO the composition could be a bit better, like in the center of the image there is nothing worthly of seeing, just an empty piece of wall, nothing, that would even drive the viewers sight to the more important areas. Maybe the couch could be moved a bit closer to the center... And the main character is too off screen - I think - The modelled detail is compressed too much on the character, to be off screen like this...
(The DOF could be a bit bigger, so that could serve more as a "sight pinpointer")

Oh, well, I know, Aldaryn likes to talk a lot, especially a lot useless things... so he'll exit here. So, sorry, I really like the pic. Rated it for 4 stars. :D

vraimment jolie, superbe lumiere !!

[Garma]

cool! I like the lighting

[Goron]

Haddes> thank you. ;)

Aldaryn>thank you for your critics.
About the blacks pixels, it's made on purpose, it's on the textures, no artefacts here. The center of the image is empty, 'cause i didn't want to put more stuffs, to not make an heavy composition. but your idea is interesting too.
Anyway, thank you for sharing your point of view.:thumbsup:

Dareoner> Merci beaucoup, j'ai vu ton boulot, ça tabasse les marmottes! chapeau bas :applause:

Garma> thank you, i'm very haapy that so much people like my picture.

reminds me of a kiddie darth maul, would be cool to see him fight someone else with torches , for sweets... great stuff..

[malcolmvexxed]

not bad, i definitely like the fact that you took so many chances with colors. it definitely stands out.
the lamp in the background has a very difficult effect to figure o ut. Based on the wall i expect it to have a wider range and hit the couch like a reading lamp, otherwise it really doesn't make much sense to have it there. All things considered your focus of the piece takes up very little of the actual composition. Even a slightly lower perspective looking over the spilled marbles ( i assume?) would have allowed you to tell the same story and frame it better. the bottle especially is great though.

[dimitrios_c]

I like the use of shadows to compose the scene and really bring it all together. Go get em little darth maul...lol hehehe....

[PiPS]

Yop GORON !

Nice work Mister GORON !
I like the colors like cartoon...

;-)

[xuyong]

:applause: nice works!

[Signal2Noise]

Great pic! I like the mood. :thumbsup:

My only crit is the lighting. I think the light reflection of the character's rear sock needs to be toned down quite a bit. as well as the highlights on his (?) horns. But that's just me... :shrug:

[Kel Solaar]

Nice work, atmosphere and lightning is very great :)

[mjx]

:thumbsup: the color is beautiful!!!

[-YoD-]

Yeah Goron, u know still what i think about your pic...cool :buttrock:

[Goron]

thank you all!!!!
Yod and pips> thanks my friends!

Signal to Noise> yes, i exagerated the lighting on his head to detached him. 'cause he was a bit lost in the background. Maybe it's too much, but i really like sharp lighting :) it's a bad habit :rolleyes:

[facial]

Hey, Roland.
I love this work, very intresting. It really looks like a still image from a animation clip, So how about to make a short film through the inspiration of create this still image? :)

Well done :thumbsup:

[ben4096]

Eh! great picture Goron! :applause:
good to see you posting new stuff.
I like this one, great mood, cool character. One of your best pict.
waiting for a new one now.... ;)
And about FR s1? can you tell us about rendering time and lighting setup for this picture ?

[toce]

Goron rockin' your world!!! :buttrock:

;)

[VGTsXVII]

beautifull picture!!

Very nice, warm colors and lighting..

And... YES, animate it :)

[Tim Deneau]

Awesome work, I love the whole scene. Good use of colors especially.

I think that the flashlight is too bright though, the falloff doesn't really match the intensity.

[Goron]

still reply! i'm happy :)

Facial> thank you, i'm thinking about a short animation. Everybody ask me for that.

Ben4096>thanks my friend. New pic? one per year isn't enought? :p
about Final render, I use it for GI and the glass shader. I didn't look for the render time for the hi resolution picture, 'cause it was too long. For a 800*600, it took between 10 and 15 minutes i think.
for the lightening, I use a environment color, 3 spots for the door (1- for sharp light, 2- sharp light for the armchair, 3- and one to adjust the setup), plus 2 oranges omni for the characters back light.

Thanks Toce, VGTsXVII and Rojo. For the flashlight you are right, but i did on purpose.
