The shading is great as usual! Looks exactly like a scene from the movie!

i can't put my finger on it but there's something odd with the lamp thing in the background.... i think the angle might be wrong with the wall... unless the wall is towards the viewer... i dunno put i seem to stare at it a lot for some reason....
the rest is super lovely though. i'm digging the woman's jacket!!

i think i know what it is lol
the circle plate thing is flat against the wall but the actual lights seem as if they're angled to the viewers left.... so the wall and the circle are okay....i think i recognized it after looking at the blurred words on it and how they are viewed compared to the lampss....
anyways, i dunno if this will help you at all; i sure dont want you to do more work than you have to!!
its just one of those things that i bug me about a drawing....

ahahah
okay
soo i think its not the lamps... i think its the blurred words on the circle. i think its because they are sooo slightly raised on the right end that it gives the whole wall a different angle.... i'm not sure if you can see this.... omg i should stop before you kill me!!

oh lol!! you're so funny Olga..of course I won't kill you! But I'll give you one of these 
I'd already spent time trying to fix it and had improved it but I'd spent so long looking at it that I couldn't even tell anymore whether it was right or not....then along you come and make me realise it isn't fixed.
Anyway to cut a long story short...after a bit more brain numbing staring and head scratching, I thought why not try overlapping the image onto the ref pic in photoshop and see how different it is....so I did....and an hour or so of toggling the opacity between 0% and 100% I think I got some clues....oh and case you're wondering, it was the lamps, the circle thing and the words...they were ALL out slightly somewhere...so no wonder it wasn't working!!

awwww
i'm sorry i made you work more!!! but i'm glad you didn't think i was crazy or something... cuz i definitely felt iffy about it. but its a learning process so i'm pretty sure you'll catch it next time. and it was a good idea you overlapped it with the reference pic because i think it helps you see it better. anyways, i'm happy that the figures are amazing because that's usually the hard part... so from my eyes, you're amazing!!
