Description
A piece done for Digital as Illustration class, 2nd Semester at MICA.Assignment was to make a picture based off of the title phrase of a television series; I chose "How It's Made" from Discovery/the Science Channel. I remember having most difficulty in lighting with this one, but hopefully I've learned from these mistakes and will do better next time a piece calls for large robots and single-bulb-lit warehouses

That robot IS badass. With regard to the lighting, it is more general and ambient than seems likely from a single lightbulb -- imagine how dramatic the painting would be with harsh shadows, a narrow cone of yellow light illuminating their plans, and the front edges of the robot peering out ominously.

Thanks! I knew the lighting seemed off somehow before, but now that you mention it I can definitely see what's wrong. Your suggestion is quite inspiring; I will have to take your idea for dramatic, conular lighting to heart the next time I'm making a similar piece!
