Oh thanks a lot for the kind comments. I'm adding the reference, well the other blade was bright white there too, cause of the angle of the light I guess.My goals here were
1- make the robes thicker
2-make that blade look older and darker
3-render the arch behind little sharper, since it was sort of blurry on the reference
4- and make the whole scene creepier
I changed some stuff as you see, also used no grid whatsoever aid, even though I scaled up the printout. you will laugh at this but I looked at the monitor for reference most of the time, since the printo
uts lacked the detail no matter the quality of the paper
and here goes the reference:
) Its a whole story. I love that old blade. I can see why it took so long. And the background looks great, I remember you saying you had to make a lot of it up because you didn't like the reference's background.
