Hey @sadbonez, nice work! I did a paintover focused on design. I think if we could better design a moment and compose the image around it that would improve your piece more than just rendering better. That said if you want a better painting- learn about value structure and creating a focal point with it.
If you notice in the paintover the brightest values highlight points of interest. But this all goes back to design and how the painter can best compose an image and then render it.
The rest of the notes are in the image below!
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks this helped a lot i seen your critiques in other peoples peices and was hoping i could get help on mine from you and this is just beyond helpful i see that i should make the focus more on the worm and have a clear conflict and i really like paint over it helped me understand your points more
Hey @Ghada Dudts Mzid, nice work! I think your image reads quite well- but I did a paintover to see how we could improve it :)
Other than a few anatomical issues- I mainly focused on the composition to generate a mood.
To me, the story seems like she is trying to conceal her wings so I wanted the forest to convey a certain "hiddenness" with the lighting. Putting the character in shadow reinforces that feeling and also silhouettes her so that we can see her more clearly.
I have other notes for the scene in the image attached regarding scale, variation, shapes and movement.
Hope it helps- and thanks for sharing!

Great work! A fan of the crow and new environment :)
Hey @Jo Edgehill, nice to see you still sharing! I did a paintover emphasizing presentation and varying render levels. But to improve the actual skill of rendering you have to lock onto the forms of your subject- making sure they work naturally together in order to execute the lighting on top. You're pretty much there but I did have to make some design adjustments here and there in order render correctly.
Either way, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for everything! I really appreciate your time and help. Your draw over is incredible! I just have a question ,if that's okay? In your drawing , everything looks extremely cohesive and rendered. How do you know when everything fits together? I thought mine
was pretty good ,but after seeing yours,I can see it's all very disconnected. Thank you so much ,Mr. Sunga!
