This little orc guy is a lead figure that I used to paint. Well, obviously I didn't just paint him, probably got a few hundred of them in various states of painting . He is only about 2 inches high and blatantly has a chip on his shoulder...
Great lighting and I love that the lighting is so very appropriate to the subject. Like he's coming to get me in the face of an extremely big lit-up train!
Very contrasty lighting fits well with your angry creature! I find the face a tiny bit dark. I would probably do a dupe layer, screen, mask it out completely and softly bring back in some light with white on a soft brush just on the face, then pull down the opacity on the screening so it's not stark. Still, very cool shot.
Great job. The lighting here and the creature's expression creates a scary atmosphere.

ReplyDeleteWow, eury. I would never think of that. I'm not even sure I know what you just said. I'll add it to my tip sheet.
ReplyDeleteNice rim lighting. I can't seem to get it, so I'm very in awe of those of you who have been successful. :)
Ditto what Kat said, I too have no idea what eury's talking about but I'm sure it would work!! This is one scary creature.
ReplyDeleteAha, no visible source, and the rim is lit. Good job.

So it is possible to rimlight a small object. Now I have no excuse not to try it with my clothes peg.
