Thanks so much guys! Had to paint the tears, blood, arrow and flower petal. Drove me batty getting it right, but it was worth it. <3
A fallen hero, nice work Is there something in her right hand or is that just the way the ground looks ?
Nice.
I'd change the angle on the arrow, make it more vertical (or even remove it)
If i were niggling:
- flagstone scale is too high, crank that down like half.
- adjust the sword so it's heading out the corner of the frame (though you'd probably get a better effect pulling the whole shot way out to full body)@coolcat One hand is reaching for a petal, the other a falling sword.
Thanks rob! (I have no luck tagging you rofl)
@silverboax Thanks! Curious as to why you'd remove the arrow--is it too distracting? Or is the color jarring? Huh, the flagstones are large. I'll try and fix that when I remember.Sword: you mean completely out of her hand entirely? As for full shot, I really wanted the focus on her face/emotion. Rendering the full length felt too busy, if that makes sense?
arrow seemed ok to me but I do think that falling she'd have less of a grasp on the sword. perhaps even drop the sword and reach out with both hands?
arrow seemed ok to me but I do think that falling she’d have less of a grasp on the sword.
Not necessarily, hence the term "death-grip". 😀
@sparklepants - sword I just mean6t the angle, not taking it out of her hand. Having it go out the corner will help the flow of the image.
The arrow just looks off to me, partly because ts right on the edge of the blur. The angle it’s on would also indicate she was shot from below. But ultimately I just think it’d look better if it were closer to facing the camera, or simply not there. The blood will still tell the story I think. Optionally, maybe a 2nd/3rd arrow close to the first to sell the story more.
This might look nice in place of the petal.
