Well here it is . . .Zombie High School.

The premis:
The current student body is becoming infected and turned into zombies at an amazing rate-the infection runs rampant and takes hold of the jocks first. With the Letterman infected, only 3 cheerleaders can stop the madness and keep there school from becoming. . .Zombie High School.

I had a such a great time with this. There were certainly bumps along the way. Next time I will budget more time. Thanks to everyone that looked, and all the amazing artist on this forum that partook in the challenge.
Best regards,
Steven

Hard to believe the challenge is over!

Any input guys? I know the challenge is over, but I’m curious about crits. Does anything look off? I am going to continue tweeking this piece in my spare time. I actually updated a sligthly more polished version in my cg online portfolio-please feel free to look. . . I have to say I love this site. So many resources, and amazing artists.
Cheers to all who look.

I know the contest is over but you asked :wink:
The middle girl’s hand looks off but it may be shading. Some highlights or brighter areas would separate her hand from her face.
There is a problem with overall lighting consistency. The girl on the right is not shaded in a manner that would be appropriate if the light was coming from the upper right. Their shadows appear like the main light source is coming from behind them as well which is inconsistent with the shading of the characters.
This is just a preference and maybe it’s changing the tone of your image too much. However, I think the image would benefit from some more vibrant colors.
I like the composition. It focuses the viewer’s attention nicely.

MdModeler-
Hey, thanks for the crit. I agree with you:) I kinda ran out of time in the contest (oh well, will budget better for the net one) That aside, I was running into lighting issues kinda early on, and never really sorted them out fully. Same goes for the building/school in the back (surprised no one commented on that yet?) mainly I think its a perspective issue–Anyway I’m gonna keep tweeking this one. I was hoping to use this a a portfolio piece-but at some point you gotta cut bait.

Things to fix: need consistant lighting, center girl hand definition. . . any other crits out there? Thanks a million guys. It’s this type of input that really helps

PS
Please check out my cg portfolio, I have an updated version of this poster in there, that address some of the above issues-but I will continue to work on it. Thx

Thanks for your kind comments. I like your image too. . .the blues and purples in the sky as well as the pyramids faiding off in the distance. Cool creature too.
