arkillian (Reply)Total Posts: 3088Feb 9, 2006 8:41 pmThe rocks are quite good- it lacks texture, which is the only real problem. I've done a little caving in my time, and the formations are similar to that, but cave formations are very unique. To learn how to draw a cave formation and normal rock is two different storys. My thoughts is to surf the net and copy from a photo- cave fock sediments drop lime down from the roof to the floor hardening into stakes of rocks over hunderds of years. Usually there would be rocks 'dropping' from the top to the bottom, sometimes connecting in between. The texture would be smooth in this case. If this is a 'man' made cave, the edges would jag off in random angles. --- |

arkillian (Reply)Total Posts: 3088Feb 11, 2006 10:44 amTrolls, only cause unless they aren't traditional dragon sized, they're a little small- unless they are baby dragons. It seems more of a troll thing to do- Dragons are reguarded as noble creatures in any myth- some going astray. Most of the time those are the european dragons- the asian ones tend to be on level with GODS seemingly ^^; --- |

Elite Saiyajin JennyTotal Posts: 266Feb 10, 2006 11:24 amI love the shading on this, it's very cool! The texture gives it a good, oldy feel. My one suggestion would be to make the background darker to give the den more depth. And you'd also be able to see the dragon's heads better. It looks a little fuzzy around that area, and making the background darker might define it more. --- Si vis pacem parabellum - If you want peace, prepare for war. |

grey wings (Reply)Total Posts: 234Feb 11, 2006 7:42 amhummm... :pondres: yesh, that would make it look better... lol, butthe dragons are supposed to blend in with the background a little so that the lantern could pick up on them a little, especially the little one to the right. ^_^ i'll give the darkening this a shot on my comp though, maybe it would look better... --- brunette: awe blonde: *looks up* i don't see it...
