AndyFairhurst In reply to Gurratheman [2012-02-02 20:29:40 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I just felt I may have overdone the smoke. But having looked back at it after a year or so I reckon it actually looks ok!

Cheers

It's the most beautiful picture I've seen and it shows the true Darth Vader who understands his own feelings while hiding behind his mask.

holy cow, that's a lot of work!! you really know your lighting. Amazing piece!

AndyFairhurst In reply to x-Usagi-Bomb-x [2010-11-05 13:30:35 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! It is more reflection than lighting, I find doing general reflections easier than lighting. When the reflections get more specific is when it gets harder for me

x-Usagi-Bomb-x In reply to AndyFairhurst [2010-11-05 14:16:05 +0000 UTC]

still though, it really shows you have a solid grasp of color, lighting and the effects the BG has on the images topic. I'm so far away from understanding that it hurts lol
